Halloween of the past...

This was one of my favorite Halloweens of all times. I know I wrote about it, but I can't put my finger on where I posted it. This was 2010. We carved our pumpkins, we had a lot of pumpkins. Big pumpkins.

We went Trick or Treating. I had a Fairy, Spiderman with Cowboy boots and a scary mask kinda thing. (Tanner has never been much for costumes)

We lived in our apartment in Gladstone at the time. I left treats at our door, which I am sure were taken by the same kid. We went to a neighborhood close to the apartment complex. It was magical. Everything was decorated. Tons of kids on the streets collecting candy. It was one of those movie type Halloweens. The perfect weather. The perfect houses. The perfect everything.

Zip lining! 2010! They were so little!

This was our First Grade Girl Scout Troop: Alli and Abbi are still with us. We have added more girls and Katelyn came back from sunny Florida to join us again.

Pet Peeves....

Pet Peeve: something that a particular person finds especially annoying.

I told you about my Sumo Haz Meows pet peeves a while ago. I might as well tell you about mine.

· People who eat disgustingly

· People who take advantage of kindness

· Hoarders

· People who yank their small children by their arms

MADE Nationals Winners!

Fountain City Roller Derby took home both of the trophies. Each team winning all of their games. Congrats to the teams and bringing the trophies home. It seems to be a winning season in Kansas City (except the Chefs, but we don’t talk about the Chefs).
