Halloween is over!!

Halloween was fun with everything that we did, but I'm glad that it is over. It was alot of work. I dressed up as a witch (which didn't take much) Rockwell was Rocky, Grace was Snow White again, and Alice was Princess Belle again. It was the first time the girls got to wear make-up so they really liked that, but then the mascara really started to bother them. They were begging me to wash it off. We got pumpkins and carved them. We made sugar cookies and took them to our neighbors, and to the girls I visit teach . Then, we went to trunk-or-treat at the church on Thursday and went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood on Halloween. My kids have been high on sugar all week and I think I've about had it with sugar. I'm thinking I might try the no sugar diet for a week because I know I might be able to reach that goal. I just want to throw all of the candy away. Looking at it makes me sick. I've had my share this week which I think will last me until Christmas. We have one more can of juice in the fridge and after that I'm not going to buy any more for a while. This is big for me to do because I live on juice. I have a hard time drinking plain old water. The water here tastes like dirt. I'm going to have a really hard time getting rid of the chocolate milk in my life too. I'm willing to do it now so I better do it while I am motivated. It will save us money on groceries too, so that is a good thing.

At first glance, I saw Rock's hoody and thought he was a prince or an elf to go along with his sisters princess costumes. But when I looked again, I was like, "Heck yeah! Rocky Balboa baby! What a perfect costume for him!"
