Holiday Traditions Begin

It's starting to become obvious to me why traditions are fun with kids. I'm usually a no fuss celebrator which means I do as little decorating and cooking as possible. This year, we were in Austin for Halloween with my family. I had blown off the idea of carving pumpkins with the justification that the kids wouldn't know any differently. Husband insisted on jack-o-lantern making, and I'm glad he did. Kate was enthralled.



Trick or treating was a blast even if we only made it to four houses. Cousin O was a reluctant bear. Bean was a "rojo bee" (otherwise known to us as a lady bug), and Squeaker was a "regular bee." At one point, the girls sat down right outside someone's front door to evaluate their loot.
