The girls had a lot of fun at Halloween this year. Dylanne was the Wicked Witch of South St and Micheala was Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Halloween honestly gives me a lot of anxiety. First, they don't make costumes for Iowa weather. So, the girls get costumes and then are all mad at me because we have to bundle up. Then the candy! O my goodness, there is so much candy and we have two diabetics in the house. Not a good combination! We went Trick or Treating with a bunch of friends and made it down one road when Micheala decided she was done. It's a lot of work to ask for candy and to be honest she had some and was dying to eat it! Micheala and I headed home, but I don't buy Halloween candy so we went to the neighbors and they let her help hand some candy out.
The girls did the free-throw shooting contest this year. This is Dylanne's third year and Micheala's first. Dylanne has gotten old enough that she is now using a real basketball and the hoop is much higher, which frustrated her a bunch. She got first place the last two years and was very frustrated with only third place this year. Micheala on the other hand, made no baskets, but thought it was a blast because there were High School girls there helping them and that is all she needed. Micheala really wanted a trophy and out of 5 girls, Micheala was tied for 3rd place so she got a trophy! She was excited and Dylanne ticked off! Ah, the emotions of girls.
That's about it for the Schrock house right now. They keep us on our toes and busy. They want snow now and are ready with their winter gear. I hope we don't get any this year. I have a feeling I will be disappointed.
