Your kids look too cute. No, said email did not get sent, but the thought is greatly appreciated. My kids did enjoy our church festival. I was laid out on the couch, drifting in and out of consciousness. (Just kidding) I was pretty out of it though. See ya soon on the 10th at coop. Two more weeks of 3 year olds! Yippee!
Your kids are darling! And I love the stash you took. I took a handful or 2 of my kiddos but didn't dare take pictures as evidence! All good candy? Now that rocks! We gotta find a neighborhood like that next year! :)

I love seeing your kids all dressed up and the potpourri of costumes. The snow clone was cracking me up! I will post our pics soon! Gotta admit, got my own little stash too!
Your oldest looks too grown up. Tell her to STOP IT!
They all looks so adorable....

Your stash looks really good. 'Specially that 100,000 bar.
Those 100 Grand bars are among my very favorites! Those and Bottle Caps. No Bottle Caps this year. :( But there was so much good chocolate, who needs Bottle Caps?
That is good candy! So, much chocolate, so little time!
Is this the same family who just came home from the dentist? ;o)
They look SOOOOO cute!!!
Looks like a really fun night, Kathleen! Love the picture of Little Snow White Riding Hood with the Darth mask--good stuff!!
