DeMom, Mr. Clean, Jarhead, and Lego

This has been the best year of my life! Matthew and I celebrated the anniversary of our first date on thursday last week. it was so fun! for our first date we went to the dollar theatre to see stardust and got slurpees, this year, we went to applebees for dinner and then played batman legos! AWESOME! we had so much fun. It seems like so much longer than a year has gone by, i think because so much has happened. we went on our first date pretty much as friends and then we were engaged, and got married, and moved, and went on a vacation. anyway, i'm not going to bore you with all of the many things that have happened, but it has been a lot and it has been the best ever. i love being married to my very best friend..

on a totally different note, i wanted to share a frustration about the sad state of many parents and children today. we live in a basement and so we didn't think we'd get trick or treaters. we were planning on going out but since i didn't feel well we stayed in and played more legos. we made sure our light was off just to be sure no trick or treaters would come. so(since we had no candy and wanted to avoid an akward moment), we decided not to answer the door when the one and only group came knocking to our door. would you believe these kids OPENED OUR DOOR! We just stayed where we were because we didn't want to yell at the little kiddies even though we were so frustrated! We know there was parent or older person of some sort by her voice. she was like "guess they're not home. close the door". Come on now, if the light is off, and noone answers the door, would you ever think of opening the door. I would have never done that as a child and i would never let my children do it when i'm a parent. i was appalled and just had to share.

anyway, hope everyone else's halloween was pleasant and hope your ready for a fun novemeber.. and don't forget to vote on tuesday!
