Halloween 2007


Well things in my life always seem to be hectic and Halloween was no exception. The day started with of course Isabelle climbing into bed at an inappropriate hour, usually before the sun has come up. We then went and got some goodies from the grocery for the evenings festivities. Belle even got to play for a bit and have lunch with her cousin Spencer for a short visit.

Then it was party time at Jenna's school, I went to help and all the kids had lots of fun. After games, cupcakes, chips and party bags full of sugar it was time to send them home!! But on the ride home I got a call from Adam that he was not feeling well at all and that he was sure he had another kidney stone. So between juggling trying to figure out what he wanted to do (all the doctors office would tell us to do is to go to the emergency room) and getting the kids ready plus making appetizers it was a very busy afternoon. Adam decided to miss out on the Halloween festivities and wait till we got home. We were sad to leave without him and it was so hard to see him in that much pain.

We arrived at Aunt Tirzah and Uncle Larry's neighborhood just in time for trick or treating. Jenna was my spooky corpse bride and Isabelle was sweet little Alice in Wonderland...........she definitely looks the part! The girls trick or treated till they were exhausted and we made our way back to the house to check out the haul. Both girls got ample goodies! Unfortunately I learned through a cell phone call that Adam had decided to go to an Immediate Care Center due to the pain he was having. He had called a friend to take him. It was a tense hour or so making calls to find out where he was and we learned that he had been taken by ambulance to a local hospital. So mom came over to watch the kids and I headed off to the emergency room. Adam had passed a couple stones but still had one remaining...........bummer. Poor guy is in a lot of pain! I don't have to go into the gory details for those that have been through this before!!

So our night ended somewhere around midnight. We are all tired and glad the day went well for the kids.............
