Halloween 2012

 
A ninja and Spiderman embark on a Halloween adventure.
 
Quinn meandered from house to house enjoying every decoration and admiring all the costumes.  Henry raced ahead with a friend as fast as they could possibly go.  I hope they remembered their manners but I fear they did not because they were like cats chasing a rabbit across the yard - GO GO GO.  Henry hit FOUR neighborhoods in three hours while Quinn did one in 2 1/2 hours.  I bet Andrea's legs were jelly by the time the boys were done.  Ages 3 and 7 are the prime ages for Halloween and we all enjoyed our evening very much.
 
I have been feeling the need for some sort of big change this summer and fall.  Bob's dad was diagnosed with cancer in the spring and recently passed away and visiting Rockford took a lot of time and energy.  I've been looking at real estate in LeRoy and Bloomington, but decided it's time to join Weight Watchers again.  I had a ton of success with the program in 2002-2004, but then gained everything back plus 30 pounds with two pregnancies.  I've tried to lose weight a couple time since having the boys but just didn't have the mental energy.  It takes a LOT of mental energy.  I have always wanted to do a triathalon and though it seems like a laughable goal at my current fitness level, that's where I hope to head.

you go. you can do it! Might even be easier with Bob watching his carbs! I know how hard it is up close and personal. The hardest.
