Hope everyone had a great Halloween! As mentioned before, Derek and I decided to lay low this year and didn't do anything crazy to celebrate. We did, however, go trick or treating with our friends and their two adorable children. Peyton, the little girl, was a carton of milk. Excuse me, "a carton of Farm Fresh milk" (she will correct you). Parker, the little boy, was a bottle of root beer. It was hilarious seeing his straw pointing to the ground whenever he got upset and hung his head. The whole night they were referred to as "Root" and "Milk" which was a laugh for me and Derek. It was so much fun seeing all of the little children-- we saw a lot of little bumble bees, a Virginia Tech cheerleader (ironically named Molly) and football player, a cow, Minnie Mouse, several Yoshis and superheros, and a couple of princesses. Needless to say they were all adorable. Afterwards we went out to dinner with our friends at a great Italian restaurant, and then went to.......... THE HAUNTED HOUSE AT VIRGINIA BEACH! If you know me well then you know I had a traumatizing experience there. Lets just say there was crying, cowering, and escorting out of the side entrance. Well, this Halloween I put on my big girl panties and finished it! I had superhero Derek by my side (or gripped in both of my arms AND hands) the whole time protecting me which made it less scary than before. My heart was pounding like I had never experienced before and I was on an adrenaline high. The whacked out people that worked there said "you smell like fear" and "touch my face." It was weird, frightful, and creepy but we made it out! All in all we had a relatively quiet and fun Halloween together. I'm already looking forward next year's festivities! Hope everyone enjoyed All Hallows Eve as much as we did!
