Here is Corey with his classmates on the basketball court. Lots of Disney princesses too!

Meanwhile, this morning Corey and I dropped off Brody at school. For the first time, Goddard School allowed costumes for Halloween. However, it was probably two days ago when we heard that, and we'd already gone high-maintenance on the costume. Brody flat-out refused to wear it to school, and we're not sure they EVER got it on him ... except briefly this morning and only then when Rob was holding him. (But don't worry, he had Woody with him all day.)

After the parade, I moved into my booth duty at the First Grade Fall Festival. I was in charge of the ghost target toss. Basically kids got four soft balls to throw at velco ghost targets (that wouldn't stay on the wall and that velcro kept peeling off from). I was definitely suckered though, because I must have done about 1,000 lunges trying to pick up stray balls (even from two to three feet away, these kids were having trouble.) An HOUR later, I was able to take Corey home. Whew!


Brody was briefly happy after his nap when he re-discovered the balloon he'd received at school. He carried it all over the house for a while and let it hit the ceiling more than once. It was far more exciting than carving pumpkins, apparently.

Corey in all-out Ninja mode. We made a trip over to Corey's friend Avery's house too, on the other side of the neighborhood. (Their street was a little more lively!) Corey had fun with her neighbor while playing with a fog machine.

Though I'm exhausted, I have to say that it's really nice here. It's 9 p.m. now and 77 degrees, nice and cool outside.
Tomorrow morning we're taking Grammy to Corey's hockey practice and tomorrow night we're all going to watch the Wild and Coyotes from the Honeywell suite!

Wow! That was quite a Halloween! Ours wasn't nearly as exciting. We sat around for almost an hour before our first trick-or-treaters showed up. (Lots of Disney princesses in Utica too.) Nice costumes!
Carrie forgot to mention that Grammy accompanied her to Corey's school and also helped with the ghost ball toss. But I admit she did more lunges than I did- but I was also exhausted. Grammy
