Since I won't be with my family on Halloween I decided to dress up for the Pumpkin Carving party. I was out in the garage and found Dave's Billy Bob teeth. I had this amazing idea to dress up as the Hitch-hiker from hell. I looked pretty freaky.
The best part of the whole night was when I went to Art City Elementary to scare Jen (my sister's sister-in-law). She was working at the Book Fair there. It was pretty comical walking down the hallways of the school. There was a couple sitting in the hallway and the lady looked at me and then did a fast double take. She then leaned over to her husband and told him to look. He casually leaned forward and had the most shocked look on his face. I wanted them to know I was joking, so I took out my teeth and asked them if they could tell me where the Book Fair was. They laughed and lead me in the right direction.
When I got to the Library I started walking toward where Jen was sitting. She looked up and then just as fast looked away. I walked right up to her and said, "Do y'all have any discounts on your books?" She couldn't even look at me. She said yes, got up and walked to the middle of the floor and started pointing out books. She was so nervous. Finally I started laughing and she said, "Are you faking?" I took my teeth out as she asked, "Who in the hell are you?!" I took my hat off and she punched me. I was laughing so hard and she was dying. I gave her hug and told her that I was sorry, but I had to come give her a hard time. It was pretty comical. She later told my Dad that when I was walking in she felt so bad because "I just thought she was a cute girl. She just should have tried a bit harder to cover up the bruises." LOL I love Jen! I have to admit that she and her co-worker acted so completely professional when I walked in. I was very impressed with their ability to keep their stares and shock under control. :)
Yesterday was our annual Pumpkin Carving party at Grandma Cay's and Papa Kirk's house. We had so much fun!! Dave has had his Pumpkin planned for 2 months. I came up with mine last night along with everyone else. It was also Micaela's Birthday party. She turned 7! Here are a few of the pumpkins. Halle was the winner of the children and Kirk won the prize for the adults!
