Halloween and Annie's Blessing

I got a little crafty and made these funny cupcakes.  I knew if I didn't document the...I'd forget.  We went to Mindy's for Halloween because it was on Saturday and Annie's baby blessing was on Sunday.  It was fun to spend Halloween with the kids and Tyra is getting kind of old for trick or treating and so.....we had to soak it for all it was worth!  They have a great neighborhood to trick or treat in!

After the kids came back from trick or treating, they did the funniest thing!  They dumped out their candy and put it into categories depending upon value....based on how much they liked it.  Then....they  bartered with each other until they got what they wanted or wore each other out.  We had to watch over Josie's loot a bit but, it was the funniest thing ever!  Our kids used to come home and sort it all out but barter????   That is a Livingstone trait!  It was fabulous!  Annie's baby Blessing was the next morning.  I'm grateful they live close enough that we can spend time with them on special occasions and come and bother them when it's not a special occasion!
