Halloween

We had our big pot-luck type Halloween gig tonight in the cul-de-sac and it was fun, as always. I really treasure the times when we all just come together, our own little community, and have dinner, share stories, and just chill. I'm not a big party girl, I enjoy the little, yes, boring, things of life. Parties and crowds make me anxious. So I stay home with a slew of kids under 12 years old and am comfortable and happy :)
Kayla and Amanda came over for a bit tonight. We ate, made brownies, talked, and hung out. Probably not the best time ever for them, but I had a really great night. I love where I live. Even if it's not in the mountains on a lake.
Here are some pictures!





I decided to dress up as myself this year--wearing my own clothes, I threw together a hippie-ish outfit in all of five minutes. It was swell :) Connor wore my old shirt I made for peace-week last year because he didn't know what to be either. He was a good hippie I think.
Jan Stork came up to me and laughed and said, "Hah! I dressed like that all the time...I remember those days...well, most of them." She is hilarious that woman. :)
