Weekend of FUN!!

It was a great weekend if you weren't the mom of the family.. .
Trick or Treating on Friday night was great. The weather was so warm we were down to warm hoodies, stretchy gloves and walking around the neighborhoods. YAY!!
But lets go back to Friday morning. . . Avery awoke with a frog in her throat and in about a 5 minute span of her coming into our room to say that she didn't feel good she had a cough and that was all that she wrote. Tod went and checked her throat and to our surprise she had a croup cough. Tod took her to work with him so she could get some medicine and then she had to hang out in his office while he had a meeting. He brought her home for lunch, at that time I came home to get dressed in my costume. I took her back to school with me, so she could enjoy her Halloween Party for the afternoon. I forgot my camera so I had to have Keri and Shawna take pic's of the girls. Aspen was a scarecrow that she had to make as an art project for school. Avery was Supergirl, oh the powers she has. They had fun at there school parties. Oakly even dressed up at Junior High as Cookie Monster. What a good sport, but he has taken on the roll of hating to have his picture done. That really sucks for him cuz I love my pictures. We went around town and then to the Complex to play games and go through the Haunted House that Grandpa Pharis organized and dad was a part of. Tod was the Butcher in the Haunted House and did a great job. He had a real pig head and parts to throw around and chop up, lots of blood and yuck. When we were in the Haunted House Avery looked under the Butcher table and back at the guy with the knife and said "Those are dads shoes, hi Daddy". She wasn't scared of him, but down the hall she got a fright. She really screamed. Aspen was brave and nothing scared her. We had a great night of candy collecting and lots of tricks.
Saturday was a day of partying for Aspen. She had a movie, sleepover birthday party. They went to High School Musical 3. Aspen was going to that, so I planned for Avery to go with some of her friends, well I was struck with a migraine, yes it sucked and knocked me out for the day. Tod arranged for Avery to be picked up by Jodie(THANK YOU!) so she could still enjoy her day with her friends. Deanna(THANK YOU!) brought her home and she said she had a great time. Maybe next time I can go!:) Okaly had a Hockey game and they lost, but they were short 3 players which makes it hard considering they only have 10 players to begin with.
Today I was still not feeling great and Aspen needed to go out to another Birthday Party for 2 friends that had a joint party. Avery hung out with me for the afternoon, while Tod and Oakly went to Hobbema for another hockey game and once again they lost, playing short handed again. I am still felling yucky and hope that tomorrow for work I am up to a full day:)
