Halloween in Overland Park, second attempt at posting


Just figured out that I shouldn't be hitting "RETURN" after writing my title until I'm ready to post this thing...yeehah, technology.

Attached this time around are photos from Halloween. The greater Kansas City area has been graced with a beautiful fall, and the leaves have been stunning. We're enjoying the show while it lasts...and in the meantime, we're raking (see above).

I'm typing this with one eye on the televised KU vs. OSU game...those of us who know KU's historically dreary football history are going out of our minds right now (both from the victories, and also from seeing our team playing well on primetime TV).

Megan and Mary, ready to leave on their Trick-or-Treating jaunt. Ever the princess, Megan dressed as Belle from the Disney movie "Beauty and the Beast". Mary went in the only costume she would wear (a ballerina). On Halloween night, she rejected her earlier choices (firefighter, ladybug and wrecking ball). We finally got her to wear a ballerina outfit and called it good.

Halloween aftermath: Mary received a blueberry-flavored ringpop from one of our neighbors...Ken claims that he doesn't remember who handed out the pops, and who cares! Mary enjoyed it very much.

Post-ringpop, Mary gave her beloved Lambie a kiss before bedtime. While Mary was at school the next day, Lambie got to go to the spa (read: washing machine). We should all have it so good...
