On the way to Auntie’s…

Olivia, in her ghost costume, running to Susan’s house so we could start our trick or treating together.

Did you post Halloween Photos this week??? Link up in our Halloween Link Up 2010!

Here is a fun thumbnail linky…

But if you prefer the old style, you can use this linky:

Thanks to Uisce for creating Wordless Wednesday.

Did you know that Susan and I own two online toy stores where you can find unique toys for Christmas like a pedal car or an inspiring toy kitchen. You know, in case Santa needs any ideas!

    Aww, what a cute view of the festivities. We crashed on the couch and snuggled together during a football game – I had just returned from an unexpected emergency trip home to be with my folks… and we totally forgot to make our yearly alternate plans!
