Halloween

Well, it has been about 2 weeks since I posted last. We had a fun Halloween. We decided we wanted to know how Halloween originated, so we looked that up.

The girls listened for a bit while I read about the origins of Halloween, then it was off to the computer games. Mady and Niki were in such a hurry to get out the door for candy and by the time they arrived home they had shed their Geisha and Princess persona's, so not many pix in the costumes.

We also joined our unschool group for a Halloween Party in Keller. I think the girls had a good time. Niki is finally talking to some of the other girls. It would certainly be nice if we could find some locals to play with! I don't mind taking the girls to see my sister (45 minutes away) once a week but if all our friends are 45 minutes away that could pose a problem, especially with fuel prices being so volatile.

This week we are going to ride horses with Christa and the gang out @ their place in Springtown. Friday we may go to Keller for some Letterboxing. Jess is planning to come over on Tuesday to make a pumpkin pie (from a pumpkin, not a can) with us. I think if that turns out to be yummy we will do that from now on!

I suppose we do more than I realize. Mady also has her art class on Wednesday and Niki will be starting gymnastics again in 2 weeks. Hopefully they are having fun learning while we live. I suppose only time will tell.
