The big night

Ok, you should have been here. The kids had the time of their life. Their costumes were the best of any you’ve ever seen. We’ll try to get pictures up down the page. The day started with the big parade around the school with all the kids in their costumes and then parties in each classroom. After that the misses and I headed home to work. I was off to a couple accounts in Boulder while the misses worked around the house. I made it home around noon and we picked the kids up at 2:45. Time flew doing homework and carving up the last two pumpkins and then it was time to get the costumes on and head to Grandma’s.

Then it was off to the Rossi’s and the O’Connells who are close neighbors since I was a kid. Then we worked the neighborhood and finished up at Uncle T and Aunt B’s where the boys had handfuls of candy dumped in their pillow cases to carry home. A quick pit stop to dump their loot and we loaded up the car and headed off to the oldest guys friend where the boys worked that neighborhood with their friends and his dad. The misses and I visited with the oldest friends Mom and drank some wine, big mistake, and finally headed home around 8:30.

Today we have a meeting downtown at 9:30 and then have to make a couple of stops before hopefully getting home before noon. Tonight the misses is hosting book club. The book this month is about the Smaldone’s, a local italian crime family we grew up with. Mrs. Rossi, who grew up in the middle of it, is coming over to share, what she calls, the real stories! It should be a great evening but there are 20 ladies coming. I don’t even know how they will fit in the house. I guess the boys and I will be upstairs or downstairs. There is football on but the only tv that gets the game is in the living room. Maybe we get it downstairs, I’ll check.

Time to run, we’re going to try to get a picture up now so hang on. If we don’t, have a great day and God Bless.
