November 1, 2009: Dylan’s going away and Halloween party!
We had a blast last night at Deena and Tony’s house. They had a going away party for Dylan. Also a Halloween party. There was a bonfire, hot dogs, cookies, candy, popcorn balls, cup cakes, and a bunch of other food! Not sure how many people were there – a lot! Everyone had a great time. Deena and Tony’s new house looks awesome. They moved in pretty fast!!!! Hope I can move in that fast.
Tony took the kids on a hay ride – well actually a blanket ride as there wasn’t much hay on the back of the trailer. Dylan dressed up in a gorilla costume to scare the kids.
We didn’t get home until after 2 am! I think I finally got to bed around 3:30 in the morning.
Dylan is going into the military this month. He will leave around the middle of the month. It will be awhile until he will be able to come back home.
