Halloween

Our Halloween was pretty hectic. I went to have lunch with Tristan and brought his class some Halloween cupcakes. I then rushed home to take Jim to the outpatient surgery center to have Lithotripsy done on one of his kidney stones. Our friend Doug came and sat with Jim that night while I took the boys to our church's Trunk or Treat. For those who have never been to one, it is a great way for families to enjoy Halloween night. There are a number of folks who park their cars in a large group. Many often decorate their cars and trucks with lights and other decorations. Our church also serves hot dogs and has games and inflatables (we had a big slide and a bounce house this year). The kids love it! Jim was pretty well out of it through Saturday, but this week he has been getting back to normal. It has been great to see him not having so much pain. Now one more kidney stone to go and hopefully this will be the end. I truly feel sorry for anyone who has had kidney stones. They are a lot more debilitating than you might think. The pain comes out of nowhere and when it hits, you are pretty much down. I joked and told Jim it is the equivalent to child birth for women. I told his nurse that he was ready to have that baby :)


Here are some photos of our Halloween. On Saturday, I had Annette's girls over and we had a little Halloween party with Halloween treats. I'll also include a couple of those pictures. Hope everyone had a great Halloween. Now onto Thanksgiving and yes CHRISTMAS! Boy how the year has flown!
