Trick or Treat

I have already been hassled for my blog slacking. But it was a stressful week with big changes for us. Greg's work has bought a warehouse farther west where they will be moving to in mid November, which is a 45-60min commute from our house. And I have taken a job near Keller as well, which will also be a commute until we can sell our house. All prayers are welcome in that pursuit and for an easy transition. As for Caleb, we had a busy week with him as usual. On my day off, I took Caleb back to the Pumpkin Patch where we met up with Shae and baby Dakota, and Steph and Trae. We wanted to get some good pictures with the boys. The unthinkable happened, Greg borrowed my camera for work and apparently took out my memory card. I didn't realize that until we were all the way out at the patch. So I was the mom using my phone to take pictures, not that that's a bad thing. But it was challenging. I actually got some good pictures. I love the iPhone! After getting some good photos, we let the boys play on the bounce houses for a while. At least until the older kids got there, then those kids ran through the houses and slides without a care for the toddlers. It was very frustrating, I had to go in and get Caleb before he was trampled. Caleb said " those bad boys". I agreed. By the way I found out that "tiki time" is actually "thinking time" at school, that made more sense. He still has trouble with some letters.
Halloween night we went around the neighborhood with his friend Andrew and his older brother, Devin. Caleb had soooo much fun, of course he didn't want to stop. He caught on quick, you walk up to the door, knock, say "trick or treat" and people give you candy. Every time he would get his candy he would turn and say "I got more candy mommy". That was amusing for most of the people handing him the candy. I hope he doesn't think he can do this anytime we wants more candy. By the end of our walk, Caleb's pumpkin basket was getting very heavy but he wouldn't let me help, and so he limped his way home. Greg got some pictures at the costume parade at school earlier Friday.
How about those RED RAIDERS!!!! Last night we hung out with some old college buddies of mine to watch Texas Tech beat UT. What a game! My condolences to Mike, Rhett, Steph, and Dani! And to all you other misguided persons who favored the Longhorns. We had a good time hanging out with friends, and laughed at how far we have come to be watching football with a crying baby, and a hyperactive two year old. But Caleb had a blast and enjoyed being part of the entertainment.
