Hello everyone!!
So. First things first. My brother had his surgery last Wednesday, a spinal fusion in his neck. He came home from the hospital and is recovering, although he is in pain. So any prayers and good vibes for him are welcome! He is happy to be back with his wife and children and getting some rest.
Second, Halloween!
Michigan is so weird all. It SNOWED here. Our area just got snowflakes but other parts got actual snowfall! My dad said in his neighborhood at one point there was so much snow that they couldn’t see the kids outside! I also included Billy’s work costume (they always have costume contests, for departments and individuals). Billy and his department went as the Peanuts Gang, dressed in their costumes. It was creepy having that costume hang around the house! Lol. I also included a picture of someone Billy works who dressed up as Billy! We thought it was hysterical. Also, that guy won! He asked Billy if he minded first of course.
Wyatt and I also chose to paint his pumpkin. He loves it – and it lasts longer!
Before Halloween my brother invited us over so the kids could craft and so Billy could help with a few things around their house before the surgery. I loved that the kit that the kids put together had a little boy in a wheelchair – and Wyatt loved that too!
Other than this, we have been laying pretty low. I haven’t felt like myself for a few weeks and we have just been taking it slow and easy!
Have a great one all!

Apart from the weird snow, it looks like a great time! I love the Billy and Billy pic!

Isn’t that Billy and Billy so funny!! Billy usually wears a flannel every day so it was super accurate. He just had his charlie Brown shirt on that day for the costume contest. Lol. And we have had a great time. Wyatt’s been so happy!

Thank you Vicki! That cracked me up when I saw that costume. Lol. And thank you for the prayers as well.

We had snow on Halloween, too, but it pretty much melted before it even hit the ground. Since we live in an old people neighborhood, we didn’t have any trick or treaters. I miss that.
Obviously, I didn’t read this before messaging you! I’m so glad your brother’s surgery is over, and I’ll keep praying for all of you.
And, Billy and Billy…total win! The Halloween costume my youngest remembers best is the year he went as Wilson from Home Improvement. He wore a flannel shirt, and I made him a fence to put over his face out of popsicle sticks! I thought it was genius, and he now thinks it was lame! He loved Wilson then, though!

Oh that haunted house kit made me so happy! How awesome! The guy dressing up as Billy is fantastic! I had plans to do some themed meals or something for Halloween as Will isn’t trick or treating anymore but we’ve had the gunk and it finally hit me so I spent most of Halloween in bed.
