Ok, we knew everyone came to Minturn the night before Halloween but had no idea what “everyone” meant. There were literally over 1000 kids and a stream of headlights coming into town that rivaled a concert a Red Rocks. Thankfully with us up on the hill we just watched most of it as the hoard stayed pretty much in town on the main street. Our boys and Ty’s friend Warner (who spent the night) took off around 5:30 and were gone until a bit after 8. They met up with Eva who is in Ty and Warner’s class. Jagger met up with some friends in town too soon after they left.
All the kids came back to the house where we had hot apple cider waiting for them as it was cold. Finally Eva’s Mom showed up to pick her up. All the kids must have had over 100 pieces of candy or more and yes, tonight, they do it all again.
I made it to Denver by 8:40 am and 3 hours later, after bringing the sewer guy donuts and giving him a few bottles of wine, our sewer pipe is clean and in good shape. So we’re all done on our end inspection wise and hopefully we can close within the month of November.
Tonight I’m going to our party as Clint Eastwood and Lori as Shirley McClaine in 2 Mules For Sister Sara. This is the movie where Shirley McClaine played a nun (which is how Lori will dress up ) that turns out not to be a nun after all. She’s going to wear two Moscow Mule cups around the waist of her nun costume so our theme comes together. Should be a fun party at Dr. C’s. She’s the only one on her team who dressed up yesterday (good for her) but lots of others in the hospital did. She wore her 60’s go go outfit which she always looks cute in.
Time to run, everyone is still sleeping. It’s clear and a little cool but no snow on the ground. November 1st tomorrow, time for Uncle Tommy to get that Christmas tree up!
God Bless.
