My Favorite Time of the Year!

It's here! Fall, Halloween, the cooler weather - I love it all! I am so excited about this time of year. I spent a wonderful day with Phi Mu ladies, remembering old times, and it was a blast. My men did sit at home, and do what men do best - watch football. I have to admit, I had to call them for an update on the game myself...
I am trying to prepare for Halloween. I promised my boys I would be home in time for us to all get Halloween decorations up outside. They love it. Pumpkins, witches and tombstones are all in our front yard now. I thought I was going to have to work on Halloween costumes when Parker and Logan wanted to be Ghostbusters. But they decided against it, and chose pre-made costumes. It's choice for which I am somewhat grateful.

What are your little ones choosing this year? I am posting a picture of my boys last year, Indiana Jones and Thomas the Train. For Indiana Jones I was able to get crafty with creating the whip and knapsack, and dip-dyed Parker's white dress shirt in tea for the "dirty" look! It was fun to create. Do you love to create costumes, or prefer the ready made ones? Either way, we oughta have a lotta fun!

A First Timer, Here!

O.K. So I am trying the blog thing. I figured since Logan and I have such interesting days now that Parker's in school, it's only fitting that I tell others about it! Well, I wouldn't call watching Thomas the Train extremely interesting, but oh well...
I have been extremely technologically hesitant. My brother-in-law was amazed when I joined Facebook, and everyone who knows me knows that I never answer text messages on my phone. Might be because I am cheap, I don't know!

But anyway, life with two boys can be interesting at times, like any time you hear the potty flush and the words "uh oh" come after it...you know, that kind of interesting. So maybe I'll find some fun things to tell you about - check back in with me from time to time, and we'll see how much trouble the Cook Boys can find!
