Miss Remiss

I've been neglecting writing for a month... I read somewhere something that befits me perfectly: "I don't do much and it takes me all day"

Of course, that is not entirely true because I have been busy busy and busy. Sick, coughing kids; preparing for the trip to NY/ St Maarten; the trip itself and the messy aftermath.

Where to begin?

The trip back stateside was fun, as always, but too short (as always!). The girls had a great time, of course, and were happy to be able to celebrate Halloween there again. It did rain on Halloween and that dampened everyone's enthusiasm somewhat, but overall it was fun. After taking advantage of other people's tax money in Summit, NJ (the town and the Y there puts on a Halloween shindig every year) we tried a new area for trick-or-treating and the deco on the houses and the lawns were fantastic. Some pics:




One other reason for our visit this year: my grandma celebrated her 100th birthday on November 1st - I think she looks better than she did last year. Good to know that we have good genes (PeeWee's grandma lived to 96!)


Will post notes from St Maarten separately.

Back to the grind of "not much"!
