Corbin was up coughing and crying all night.
Quincy was fine, so she and Aaron went to church, and the sickies and I lounged around in our jammies all day long.
It wasn't so bad.
We made butternut squash soup.
We napped.
We (I) cleaned puke out of the carpet.
When Aaron and Q came home we had dinner and carved pumpkins.
Reese requested a "throwing up pumpkin, just like me!"
Gross.We watched It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown
The Jack-o-lanterns and Halloween tree glowed
The Halloween Witch (aka aunt Kasey) dropped by and left spooky cupcakes
Meanie mom put her goblins to bed
They protested...
"Arrgh! Hells no! We shant be goin' to bed, matey!"
"Hey, Mom! I found your broom!"
Finally, Dad (aka always the hero) read them an extra story and turned on the closet light (much to Mean Mom's chagrin) and settled everyone down for bed.
Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cake was devoured.
Roasted pepper hummus and pita chips were munched.
The candy and Halloween decor disappeared.
PS-Reese's tummy is not angry with the world, today, and Corbin went to the doctor this morning. Ear infections!
Of course.
At least we know he'll be feeling chipper again, soon.
It really was a nice, relaxing Halloween. Most of our celebrating was done over the weekend, so it was fun to spend Sunday afternoon and evening inside together as a family.
We are ready to welcome the new month, give thanks, and celebrate all that we have.

I love the puke pumpkin! I tried to make one this year but it turned out poorly. Rookie mistake, as I put the mouth too close to the nose. Next year. Next year.
I hope everyone's feeling better soon!
