Long nap.

We've passed the 2.5 hour mark on the nap. I always get so conflicted around this time. On one hand, I want her to sleep because she is so obviously tired. On the other hand, I hate to screw with bedtime. On the other other hand, bedtime might be screwed anyway because of trick-or-treating. Argh.

Being a grown-up is HARD!

Halloween in the boonies.

I wanted to take Punk down to one of the other towns in the area (Longmeadow) because I'd heard that there's a street that goes Halloween Crazy and I wanted to check it out. But I had also bought a bunch of candy and really wanted to hand out candy. Oh, the dilemma!

In the end, I left a big bowl of candy on our front steps next to our jack-o'-bamas with a sign that said, "Happy Halloween! Please help yourselves!" and left our front light on.

We came back at 8pm and the pumpkins were untouched and most of the candy was gone.

And this is why I love living in the boonies. :)
