Halloween . . . .

I teach primary. And not only is it primary, but I have sunbeams. And I love my kids. They are crazy, but I love them. A couple of weeks before Halloween, my co-teacher Jandi asked the kids what they were dressing up as for Halloween, and then of course they wanted to what we were dressing up as. Well, I hadn't planned a costume because Brian is a party-pooper so we never go out. So I asked the kids what they thought I should dress up as. The consensus was that I should be a princess. Yes, that's right . . . a princess. Well, Eli thought I should be a king, but we explained the difference. Anyway, I got a crown and got all dressed up for trunk or treat. I also had a wand, but the girls continually told me that princesses don't have magic wands. I took it anyway. So, here are four of my six kids in their costumes. I was sad because Eli was sick and couldn't come and Ethan didn't come to trunk or treat and he was going to be an ewok! So, here you go . . .

I had a "Belle"

This is the Cat in the Hat, and his twin baby brothers were Thing 1 and 2

This is my ladybug!
And Tinkerbell!

And the Simmons' say goodbye to Disneyland



But we'll be back!

The Disney Pumpkins




The end . . . . of the Haunted Mansion pictures

Jack in full Disney automatronics!


Brian's birthday present!!


This is in the big room during the ride. The really cool thing was that as soon as you enter the room, you smell gingerbread. Very cool!


You can't see it, but Zero is floating down the hall.

Is there an end to the Disneyland Pictures?

Oogie Boogie is scary as a topiary!

This one is for Gretchen.



The Korean kids from "it's a small world."

There are more pictures . . . . wa ha ha ha ha !!!

And more . . .


Brian always gets a mint julip when he goes to Disneyland. This time, he got one on Saturday and one on Sunday. He's spoiled.

This one is for the Wells family ;)

Brian also loves getting caramel apples at Disneyland. We ate a lot of food over the weekend. Sheesh!

Now that the modem is possibly fixed . . .

I can try to finish my Disneyland posts :)
