Good and bad......

Good: peace and quiet, maybe I can work on the story again.

Bad: the grandkids are gone, sigh, they are such cuties.

Good thing, we found a different house and are going to put an offer on it. It's closer to our kids and closer to the airport, both good things. It's quite a bit bigger than this house, and a lot newer. I'll let you know how things turn out..

It's Halloween! Which means... lots of free candy! Having a little kid is AWESOME because it means I get to go trick or treating again (using him.... in a super-cute costume so people give him extra candy! And they totally did tonight!) AND I get to eat most of the candy, because I'm the Mama, and I get to tell him how much he can eat, then go through his bucket after he goes to bed! AHAHAHAHAAAA! Awesome.
And I get to come up with and make costumes again. This year, I made Koen into a box of popcorn- which was super cute. And I was a bunch of grapes. We both won first place in a costume contest! And, best yet- Koen wore my grape costume to go trick or treating tonight, and was even cuter in that than the popcorn costume. If I can figure out how, I'll post some pics.
Now, if I could just get us both to a con and do some cosplay..... hmmmm.....

Our offer should be in on the house in Belle Plaine. Sure hope we get it for our offer. I guess we could always go up some. They already lowered the price by over fifty thousand dollars from what they were asking last year. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, over 3000 square feet. Almost midway between two of my daughters. and more than an hour closer to the airport than we are here.
