Lol. Ok, I get it Ches! My daughter will not post any pics of her kids. She just sends them to my email. Well, we do have pm, just sayin. Oh well, my imagination is quite good. Glad they had a good time. I'm sure older son had the better time! :)

We survived Halloween!  My son's blood sugar is only slightly high and that's ok because he's off to bed.  He tried a milky way bar for the first time and he hasn't tried a reeses peanut butter cup yet but he kept 10 pieces of candy and the rest go to the homeless shelter. 

The baby also got to try chocolate for the first time he is 14 months

I am staying at my moms houseshe is taking care of me all week she rented a hospital bed in the living room i havent been home for Halloween in years. i grew up in this house is weird sleeping in the living room.  They must have had hundreds of trick or treaters my mom went through a few Costco bags of candy.  Lots of kids who come from neighbprgoods that aren't safe or people who like the decorations

What did the boys dress up as?  I'm afraid to say our little 11 month old has tried chocolate....well, more than just the one time  :P  We are becoming "those" parents who are lax with the later kids ;)  My older ones are going to start complaining soon:  "wait, what?!  you NEVER let us do that!!!"
that sounds like my Parents they only had 4 but it seems like my little brother got away with so much more than I did i was the oldest and they were ultra strict with me

Same here.  While I'm thankful for much of it. some of it just plain ticked me off.  When I was young and going to school, we got up at 5:00 so we would have time to clean our rooms, put ourselves together.  Breakfast was either Puffed Wheat with NO sugar or Cream of Wheat with NO sugar.  Then, not too long after we married, my Sisters were given the privilege of picking out their own cereal every morning.  Anything they wanted; Fruit Loops, Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, whatever they wanted.  Then Mom quit getting up with them.  They had alarm clocks and took care of it themselves.  While that much freedom is not good, imo, some of it just wasn't fair.  Puffed Wheat.  Who eats that crap?   Not me anymore.  But being the oldest calls for us to endure alot of crap.   8)  Here's to all the oldest people!!   :cheeseheadbeer: :beer:

I adore Thee O Christ, and I bless Thee, because by Thy holy cross Thou hast redeemed the world!

Let the Lord take care of those whom you think have harmed you. All you have to do is love and forgive. Try to forget and leave all else to the Master."– Mother Angelica

Got home about 45 min ago. Had to make some food, feed the dog, and clean up. I'm a busy girl, huh? Church started with low mass at side altar and finished with a solemn high Mass. It was a beautiful night. Especially love the sequence in the requiem Mass. Anyway, brought Kevin where he needed to go and got on our way. Here I am. Safe and sound. No near misses with semi. Was glad to get home and see what you are all blathering about.  :)

I wish there was something for me to say, but I'm not sure what to say.

Dear Kepha, you do not have to say anything, my dear. Besides if you need to think hard, nothing might be better! What 'cha think? Wait don't answer that, if you're not feeling it!

It has passed from evening to night even for me.  It sure is lonely here.  Keph? Carleen?  Servus?

Oh THERE you are, Carleen.  Come and join me for a little something.  Anyone else is welcome:

[Matthew 8:26]  And Jesus saith to them: Why are you fearful, O ye of little faith? Then rising up he commanded the winds, and the sea, and there came a great calm.

[Job  38:1-5]  Then the Lord answered Job out of a whirlwind, and said: [2] Who is this that wrappeth up sentences in unskillful words? [3] Gird up thy loins like a man: I will ask thee, and answer thou me. [4] Where wast thou when I laid up the foundations of the earth? tell me if thou hast understanding. [5] Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

Jesus, Mary, I love Thee! Save souls!

Is our little something chocolate? Oh, say yes, say yes!

It was a little busy and sort of okay. How about you? I might be too late asking this.

A great day spent with daughter and her 6 kids! She is expecting at end of december, beginning Jan. She will have 3 kids 4 and under, plus the other four. So 7 kids 9 and under! What a trooper!
