*****I'm more behind than I have ever been on blog pictures.  I have a few hundred pictures to purge, organize, name, and decide which ones to put on this blog.  I am going to do something I've not done before.  I'm going to start with today and TRY to add new pictures daily and at the same time work on the rest of my October pictures and add them when I can.  Hopefully it will all happen in a reasonable amount of time.******  

I woke up ready for a fun day ending with Trick or Treating and watching the Astro's play in the World Series.

While my oatmeal cooled, I wrote my spelling words.  After eating, and brushing my teeth (I have a toothbrush and toothpaste downstairs) I was out the door to wait for the bus.

I completed my homework yesterday, so I turned it in today.  It is due on Friday.

I was surprised to see Mimz waiting for me.  She came to give me three gifts: a Houston's Astro's shirt and another shirt.  I was disappointed that it didn't have Springer's name on it and I was not appreciative, so Mimz decided it might be best for her to take them back to her home.  Maybe I will learn a bad attitude will get me nowhere fast.

Mimz brought a box with beautifully decorated Halloween cookies.  I took two to Anthony and Alyssa and two to Julian and Xavier.  There was one for GGM, Barbara, Mommy, and Mimz and that left four for me!  (We forgot to take a picture of the entire box.) 

I wrote my spelling words for Mimz so she could see that I had been practicing.

I was so ready to go trick or treating.  It was raining but I didn't care, I was ready no matter what.
Finally it was time to get dressed.  I went as Michael Myers.

I'm cute without the mask!  I went Trick or Treating with Anthony, Alyssa, Cole, Cole's mom, and Mommy.  We got a lot of candy in the 30 minutes or so that we were out there in the rain.

I striped off my clothes in the garage.  Mommy hung them up on the line in the garage to let them dry.   I went inside to eat.  I wanted scrambled eggs with hot sauce so that is what Barbara fixed me.  I ate while watching the start of the World series game.

We went upstairs and it was not long before I was asleep.  I missed the first score which was a home run by Springer.

 Anna Kate and Bradley went Trick or Treating as Beauty and the Beast.

 Papa and Grandma's neighborhood planned to have an outside event, but they moved it inside because of the heavy rain.

Mommy made little treats for her co-workers: a witches cauldron with candy corn in it.
She also decorated a pumpkin for a contest at work.
