I think that this picture embodies the joy and giddiness of Halloween decorations. Candy Corn Man is only about an inch and a half tall, but he exudes excitement. I just thought I'd start this post with that kind of enthusiasm.

Last night was the night that
Rozzie and Maddie got to dance with the Golden Girls dance team. They had a lot of fun. This is the last time
Rozzie will do it. She'll be in high school next year. She wants to try out for the team, but freshmen don't usually make the team. The had a good time dancing. Lani introduced me to another Golden Girl mom who turned out to be from Apple Valley, Minnesota. She graduated in 1980 which was
Trav's class, but
Trav moved after his sophomore year. She was on the AV dance team with Karen, though! So that was a fun
conversation.

Here comes the band. Funny story about the band this week. They were playing their show - they only did part of it due to time. Well, they went over their
allotted time and the ref started blowing his whistle. He started getting all hot under the collar and ran over to the coach and the coach told him to chill out and basically blew him off. The band continued and we all cheered. Then as the band left the field, the ref threw a flag. The football team was penalized 5 yards for the band!! The crowd
booed and
booed. It was quite hilarious. We still won the game!!

Here are the finished socks that match the sweater. She the previous post regarding said sweater. They are marvelous. Now I need a pair of clogs or something.

Here is one last Halloween decoration for your viewing pleasure. Sara sent me the blocks. Mom gave me the crocheted doily. It looks so nice!!

Oooo, I'm all tickly for the Halloween decorations! I'm happy to see the blocks are on display.
Isn't it funny that you meet people from MN all over. Jim's dad meets MN people all the time when he wears Twins shirts or hats.
Cute pic of the dance girls--good luck to Rozzie next year. Auditioning is good for a kid, even if she doesn't make the team. Keep practicing!
Funny about the band--that's good you have a football coach who is supportive of the band!
Nice socks!
Love all the Halloween decorations. I also LOVE candy corn. I'd have a hard time not eating that little man though.
Your socks turned out very nice. I'm sure they will look great with your matching sweater.
Funny story about the band. That ref sounds like he had quite an ego and had to think of some way to get his way. Good for the coach for supporting the band.
