Happy Halloween!

Hope you all had a fun Halloween. We had a super busy day! Doug's last official day of work in the USAF was yesterday! He just wanted something small and informal to commemorate the day so we had a luncheon in the Heritage Room of the squadron. It's hard to believe that it's finally here after 24 and a half years of service. I'm so looking forward to this next chapter in our lives AND having Doug home with us for the next 3 months of terminal leave!! We're so proud of him and love him so much!! My batteries were dead in my flash and so I only ended up with two shots from the lunch. :(





Afterwards we ran home to get the girls changed into their costumes for trick-or-treating. Anna decided she didn't want the kitty cat face painted on while Lauren insisted she needed blood around her eye and down her cheek. We managed to talk her out of it and she stuck with her eye patch and hook....at least until we started trick-or-treating. We had a great meal at Julie and Stephen's house beforehand. It's always so much fun to get to enjoy the evening with good friends. One of the best parts of this Halloween was that we actually had Doug here with us for the festivities. He's normally in the desert at this time of year. In fact, the last time he was able to trick-or-treat with the us the girls looked like this:

My, how the times have changed....


You have no idea how tough it is to get all three of these partners-in-crime looking at the camera at the same time.
