Before I get to the Halloween pics, I have to give a moment to our little dog, Yoshi. Yoshi was an obnoxious, loving, loyal, sweet, dumb, supposed Cocker Spaniel who went to heaven back in September. His favorite place to be was between my legs so that I inevitably tripped over him often. I don't know why I love animals so much, but I do; and Yoshi was a good doggie who is missed terribly. I love you, Yoshi, and I hope you are turtle-hunting like crazy on nightly "walkies" with Jesus!
The day we got Yoshi back in February of 2010...

And now one more recent sidebar event...Tori's recent trip to the dentist:
As of August, Tori has "appliances" in her mouth. (Afterward, her dad looked in her mouth for a refrigerator or dish washer, and was disappointed to find none. Haha. Funny, G.) Anyway, the dentist is spreading her jaw to make room for her teeth, and at this visit the bottom appliance had to be taken out and readjusted. Well, the back right piece was STUCK, and Tori had to be gassed and threatened with loss of her iPod before she'd let the assistant back in her mouth. Tori's Asperger's has reared its sensitive head a few times this year after a pretty mellow, dormant past year. But wow, how she has grown. She has matured so much with coping in uncomfortable, unknown situations...I can't believe my sweet girl is in 4th grade....
And now onto the purpose of today's post:
Today, we have been getting ready. We carved pumpkins, cooked pumpkin seeds, and tried on costumes. Bad guys better watch out for us this Halloween! My Batman and Ninja Warrior are ready for action...
