Here are the goblins from the 2008 Sanity Seeking Halloween...
We've got Jake starring as ... Dr. Kill Joy (Pap, the bed pan was a BIG HIT! People loved it!)
Then we have Kris starring as ... A Clone Trooper (mmmuwwwhahahahahahaha)
And last, but not least, Juliana as ... Grumpy, I mean, Tender Heart Bear
Juliana was scared to death of the 'scary' costume's ... poor baby. 
Even the ones her size she was scared of...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
To tide you over until I get pics of my scary crew, we will start with the "Dancing Queen" ... May I present to you...my niece, Eliana, 1st prize costume winner!
"You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen..."
FINALLY after 3 years, could this be the year we have been waiting for?
Could this be the year that Jakob finally is a 'good' student? Could this be the year that Jakob finally has a teacher that connects with him? Could this be the year that his father and I don't have to meet w/the principal and a team of specialists?
Please say it is true ~ this interim report that I am reading.

(comment by teacher: sometimes talkative, silly)
I can handle silly!
OMG I think I want to cry!
and BooBoo shall remain his name even longer...
Kris was riding his scooter with a Darth Vader mask on. He ended up doing a face plant. He now has 2 deep scratches on his nose, kinda like he was wearing glasses. Frank cleaned him up while I was trying hard not to laugh.
I wonder what the cars thought driving by? "Dude, there's Darth on a scooter."
Poor BooBoo.
Here's a picture from yesterday, you can see the 1 scratch ...
that would be me.
I just read through the Walgreens ad and they have Aquafina Alive and Sobe Life Water on sale for 2 / $2 ... use their Easy Saver coupon (in the October Easy Saver books by their ads in the store) and it makes it 2/$1 -- 50 cents each is a great deal in itself,
BUT
combine it with a coupon for $1 off of 2 and it makes it FREE! Limit is 2 bottles per transaction.
I couldn't stand it...I had to go...Walgreens is 30 seconds up the road. So, at 7:59pm, 1 minute until Juliana's bedtime, I grabbed her, and the boys, and we went. J was wearing the one piece pj's w/the feet, the boys were still dressed, and myself, I had no bra on, and my pj pants on...so I put on a pair of jeans and flip flops and a jacket and off we went...LOL
BUT I got 6 bottles for 36cents!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH ME!!
This is a big deal for me, since the boys (frank included) drink me out of the house!!
