A couple of weeks ago we sent the P's to MiMi's and headed to The Westbrook's Annual Halloween Party. As always it was a great time with some great friends. I don't think I will ever stop loving Halloween or dressing up for that matter, it's my favorite holiday. Craig and I dressed up as Bingo Benny and his

Is that not the creepiest mask?! We've had a blast with that thing! For example, I can recall several occassions where we've put the mask on when driving around, running errands and stuff just to get a good laugh from all the "WTH'ers" and "WTF'ers" passing by...still laughing. Ashamed to say, I've actually scared the girls a couple of good times as well-terrible, I know, but I just couldnt resist! It was so bad that the first few days the mask was actually in the house the girls would not walk into a room without asking if the "old man mask" was in there first.
The only downer to that weekend was SissyRoo getting "sickie poo's"! A trip to the pediatrician and some chest x-rays later we discovered she had a double ear infection and croup, thankfully it wasn't pneumonia as suspected. We spent the next week getting her on the mends, taking a break from the gym and getting some much needed chores done around the house.
This past weekend was a lot of fun! We made our annual family trip to Berry Patch Farms in Woodstock. We have been taking the girls here since before they could walk. We love this place -its so family oriented with lots of stuff for the kiddos to do. Their prices are a little hefty on the pumpkins, but for all the fun and extras you get, its worth it.
Here are some vintage pictures of the family at Berry Patch dating back to 2008, crazy to see how much they change year over year.

Sunday I took some alone time and went clothes shopping for the girls. It was so nice to be out and actually spend as much time needed in as many stores needed without rushing in and out while having two little one's begging for everything in sight. After that my Mom came to pick me up and we headed to Folklore Haunted House.A co-worker of hers is actually one of the owners of this haunted house and had invited the company to pay a visit. It had been years since I had been to a haunted house so I found myself getting a little anxiety waiting in line to go in-that accompanied w/ the creepy old man who would not stop staring me in the face, def didn't help matters. I let Mom go first and lead the line-I'm pretty sure she screamed at every corner we turned. I was too busy laughing at her to really be scared, her screams let you know there was obviously something pretty intense happening up ahead :) Thanks for the date Mom, I had a great time!
We've had a busy week this week so I have several blog post planned for the next few days. I figured putting myself on a schedule and pre-planning my blog posts would help me get them done in a more timely matter.
