Happy Halloween!

I officially have the cutest kids in the world in my class! We had spiderman, superman, a witch, a purple people eater (the best costume ever) and a little mermaid as well as a firefighter and a cheerleader (who was also the witch - long story). The party was total chaos - partially because the kids were wild from the break in routine and the access to the ball pit (this is why it is only made available like three times a year) and partially because I felt like total crap. However, we still had a lot of fun! I think when you are three the combination of costumes, face painting, ball pit, cookie decorating, and cupcakes is pretty darn exciting! I then sent them on their merry little way home hopped up on sugar and way overstimulated from a day of "No Routine!!" and "Anything We Want TO Do!!". Oh yeah, tomorrow is back to schedules, schedules, schedules and rules. Sorry kids, party's over. :) Our November party is much tamer (think feast not party) and in December it is a "snow Ball" not an all out party. Still fun though. And so much easier to plan!! Oh, and I got many compliments on my funky looking Raggedy Ann self and a few laughs which is kind of what i was going for. And the best reactions were driving to and from work today in full costume - wig and all! Now I am hiding from the few trick-or-treaters where I live because I was too cheap to buy candy after putting together treat bags for 10 kids at school ... shame on me!! Good thing I don't have a pumpkin for them to smash! :) Happy Halloween!!
