Tricks and treats



Had a fun night here... The kids' loot bags are bulging, and everyone had a blast gettin' candy from the neighbors.

However! This afternoon as I was fashioning a cardboard and tin foil fairy-princess wand for the littlest Fisher, Liana came in from sweeping the porch. She brought the broom in with her. On the end of her finger. And it was stuck. Apparently, the cap came off the top of the broom, and she shoved her finger waaaaaay into it. And the broom bit back. I had visions of heading to the emergency room there for a few tense minutes. I ran cold water on her hand for a while and eventually her finger shrunk enough that we could wriggle her finger out. Her finger was dark blue. Skeery.

It's nice and fleshy pink now, however, and all is well in the world. I don't think she needs to pull that "trick" again on Halloween. We'll stick with just the "treat" part...

Looks like they had fun! Three beautiful princesses and one handsome prince!

Poor Liana! I am so glad that you were able to get it off without a trip for help.

Love you all,
Mom

Aren't they adorable!!! Don't you just love how these toddlers can scare you half to death. Of course, all my toddlers are now either preschoolers or school-age kids, but they STILL can scare me half to death! :)
