Halloween Post--at last

So it took me a while to post my pics...So Sorry!

But to keep your attention since you waited so long, here's an interesting tid bit:

There are 8,000 calories in one of these. What is it? (the answer is at the bottom, so coin your guess first so you can leave it in comments, then see if you were right) This year we went as the Popeye Clan! This includes Popeye, Olive Oyle, our mini Popeye, and Swee Pea...and YES, Swee Pea is a boy :)
YEA FOR CHERI who came to visit for Halloween!!! That gave us Carters Sailor girlfriend and a CAN OF SPINACH!

Carter got the wink and the "ak-ak-ak-ak-ak-WHOA!" down pretty good, too!
A real Popeye Pro! (thanks to the internet we tutored him on some Popeye cartoons!)


He had a great time Trick or Treating!

Carter's costume was warn by Steve when he was 2. It is a real Navy uniform, not from a costume shop. Keara's dress I luckily found at a yard sale!



The answer: A Typical Trick or Treat Bag

As a reminder

"You were preserved to come to the earth in this time for a special purpose.  Not just a few of you, but all of you.  There are things for each of you to do that no one else can do as well as you--If you will let Him, I testify that our Father in Heaven will walk with you through the journey of life and inspire you to know your special purpose here."

Dollar Days at Culvers

Tonight: $1 Short Shakes

Friday: $1 Turtle Sundaes

Saturday: $1 Concrete Mixer

Sunday: $1 burgers--but who shops on Sunday?

Kinda makes you want to come down and visit, doesn't it Dad!

PS...I took FULL advantage of this offer and it was FANTASTIC!!!  I think this marketing trick has paid off in the end and converted me over to Culvers...either that or it's failed miserable and made me a new Weight Watchers Client.  Either way, it sure was yummy.

Fun Board Game: Wise or Otherwise...I give you 1/2 a quote and you finish it, and you can make it up ;)

(Consider this my hold music until I put up a real post!)

"We finally zeroed in to find the cause of all our woes..."

Clue: Yes, it rhymes, and yes, it's a cheesy lyric from a cheesy film :)
