We beat you...

Clearly not in the costume department, but we did "celebrate" a day early. Down below you have a hillarious pirate who struck this tough pose that still makes me laugh. She will pump her fist and say, "Zesss!" So cute. Then the Pink Ninja (that's actually one of my real head coverings) and some sort of Arabian princess. Miss Sandy brought back some real American candy from her travels and after the kids ran back and forth all over the local beach hotel, between us hiding behind different trees, it tasted oh, so good.
Miss Sandy also brought back real Disney Princess Dresses which were apparently so much more appealing than the Pink Ninja I came up with, so Hunter changed. Here's the whole crew, princesses, pirates, knights and of course, Spider Man.
This is a picture I snapped of Hunter when she rounded a corner to find me in my newest hiding spot. It was so fun to hear all the kids run up and shout, "Trick or Treat!" Then send them on their way back to Miss Sandy.
But the best part was afterwards, when the kids were all sweaty from running around and silly from candy and they stripped down to their chupis (underwear) and dove in the glassy water just as the sun set.
I love this picture of Hunter swimming through the sunlight with only her head, hiney and feet bobbing atop the water.
And here's Avery with her little pig-tails.
Thanks, Lord, for good friends and times away from the daily grind. Thanks, dear friends, for lifting us up in prayer for continued health, safety, and effectiveness, "that we might save some".
