Well what a beautiful weekend in Texas. For starters, my daughter's Halloween costume was not revealing or trampy looking. Yea. I was worried because the fairy skirt was short, but she had on some leggings so it all turned out well. She looked really cute.
We had a lot of tricker or treaters. Mike bought about 8 bags of candy...I'm guessing so we'd have leftovers, but that didn't happen. The doorbell kept ringing with huge crowds of kids. I don't remember so many last year.
I got stingy as the night wore on and my supply started dwindling. Three pieces per person max, one chocolate bar and two 'not-chocolate' candies. Some of the kids would let you put candy in their sack and then they wouldn't leave. I did NOT fall for it and add more candy, no siree. I just let them stand there until their parents drug them off my porch or they got bored. :) And of course we had the kid that was wearing a sheet with two eye holes. I'm guessing he was probably 17.
Okay, what a great day at Cowboy Stadium. We got there early and cooked up breakfast tacos with our tailgating buddies. Nothing like a huge win on a gorgeous day. Our buddy with the 'nice' grill got a hole in his hose and we had nothing there we could use to fix it. It's amazing how you can make do in trying situations. We cooked up breakfast for 10 people on a $10 table-top gas grill that we almost left at home.
Not sure why Jerry didn't open the lid on the stadium yesterday....maybe because the crybaby Falcons moaned about the sun in their eyes last week????
It's a great life!!!
