Halloween Fun

Last night we went Trick or Treating at Disneyland. It's a special event at California Adventure that we go to every year. They have tons of stands set up that you trick or treat to and get lots of candy (they had healthy snacks too which was really good since we are being healthy now). We use the candy that we get to give out to the kids who come to the house trick or treating. Is that bad? Bill and I dressed up as a king and queen and Bri and Alyssa were princesses (surprise, surprise). I met a worker from Grass Valley. All of their name tags have where they are from and when hers said Grass Valley I started talking to her. Go Miners! She was a cheerleader too. I sure made me feel old when she said she was the class of 2006. We had lots of fun but it was really crowded so we decided that next year we will go earlier in the month. Alyssa started a new dance class this week. We were over the mommy and me thing. She was way too clingy so we put her in a class by herself and she did way better. She is the only one in pull-ups. I think the other girls are 3 maybe 4. A couple of weeks ago I let Brianna try on my old cheerleading outfit and Alyssa got to wear my school uniform from South Africa. I attached a picture. It brings back lots of memories. We took Alyssa today for her very first haircut. She was a little scared so we had to bribe her with candy. I really don't like doing that but she was throwing a fit and wasn't going to sit down in the chair. It's amazing what a small piece of sugar will do to a 2 year olds attitude. She was suddenly happy as could be. Well, I have to go get us all dressed for Sally's annual Halloween party. (it looks like I'll have to attach the pictures later, they aren't working)
