I won funniest costume for my 99 Red Balloons, but I suspect it was only because I told everyone I had to drive there in my skivvies to make it work.Step Two: Have the busiest week of your life, but enjoy it.

Peter was a robot. He loved it for about 10 minutes at a time. Kylie wore a poodle skirt I re-purposed from something else, and she was really excited about it.

So, I am feeling crappy about the pictures, but to be fair, I didn't take pictures of any of us. I just happened to get these from the photo fairy at our ward party. The only ones I saw of Kylie were the top of her head. Maybe I'll dress her back up and shoot a photo or two.

I understand the urge to skimp a little on the candy to save money, but if that's your objective (mine, too!), let's stay with something respectable like these:

You can get a bunch of these guys for just a few bucks, and they're still worth eating.
And less of these, please:
Made from the world's worst chocolate. I think it's half wax. I throw them away.
