Blacks are back on the blog

Well it has been just over 6 months since I set up this blog. Full of good intentions to update regularly with loads of info and pics and well...........it never happened :-(

So after much jostling by folks to make more of an effort and go update it regularly I am giving it another try, so we'll see how it goes this time.

Halloween 2007
Well last week was Halloween (everyone say "Oooooohhhhhh!!!") and we all dressed up as usual. This year the cast of characters was as follows:

Mackenzie - Pumpkin (just too cute.....and no need for any carving or candles)

Cameron & Mufasa - Superboy & Superdog (....to the rescue!)

Genevieve - Prison inmate (Wanted for pumpkin theft!)

Kenny - Freddy Kruger (Mommy can't help you now!)

We headed down to the Jewell residence together with the Pengelly's (our next door neighbors) and began our trick or treat trip round the River's Edge neighborhood. It was a cool night but we all had a lot of fun and the kids got a good haul of candy. Mackenzie was a bit weary of approaching the houses to begin with but once we had been to a couple of them and she understood that candy was going to come her way simply by going to the door and looking cute, she soon understood....LOL!

Anyway after a good while out in the cool air we headed back to Dave and Jane's and all tucked into some delicious soup..........and the kids started to make a dent in their candy mountains. Maybe they will be able to eat it all before next halloween. But only if Mum and Dad can help them of course !
