Halloween 2009

I know it's been awhile but, we are slow going this fall. Here I am blogging about Halloween where we are only 1 1/2 weeks away from Thanksgiving. Oh well, here we go. The week of Halloween I was still recovering from the SWINE FLU. Just saying the name freaks people out. It was going around the schools rapidly. Anyway, enough said. The poor children of the Shawn Peterson household did not get any regular traditions of Halloween this year. Let's have a moment of silence. No carving pumpkins and no sugar cookies. We did throw together costumes for the ward's trunk or treat. Blakely came up with a girl vampire. Katelyn was Hannah Montana. Garret was a solider. Brady was a Vrrommie otherwise know as a Motorcross dude. We went to the church and enjoyed a wonderful dinner and games. Then the kids walked around gathering candy. The kids of course came home and traded candy, which may or may not be fair. And the questions remains, do you let the kids eat as much candy as they want and get the candy out of your house or let them only have a few pieces a day. Well, we did the first. I don't know if we did it right but oh well.
