My Scary Wife
Am I too late for Halloween? I must be because Walmart already ran their Black Friday specials last week. I’ve been busy, so this is a catch up post.
Don’t Mess with My Wife
Here’s the update to our stolen pumpkins story. Following the advice of our neighbor, who is an attorney, my wife called the sheriff. I thought it was a waste of time. Pumpkin stealing isn’t exactly a major crime…unless you live out here in the burbs where horse stealing is still a hanging offense. The sheriff sent a deputy to investigate. The deputy didn’t shoot anyone, but I was still impressed she came and interrogated the pumpkin rustlers. If you think the story ends here, you don’t know my wife very well. In addition to telling neighbors, friends, relatives, and Santa about our stolen pumpkins, my wife also contacted the local news station. And they actually came to our house and interviewed my wife. She was on the 11 o’clock news. We’re talking about pumpkins here. Now imagine how much grief my wife gives me when I forget to put down the toilet seat. This is also why I believe my wife when she tells me she will CUT IT OFF if I ever cheat on her.
My Little Sweetie
Even though my back was killing me again last week, I took the kids trick or treating (can you believe it, I just turned 22 again and I’m already having chronic back problems). The Little Princess was a cowgirl, my son was Spiderman again, and the Little Monkey was a cheerleader. This year, the Little Princess also went trick or treating for UNICEF. Isn’t she sweet?
The Scary House
Take a look at the scary house below. Every year, they put up their Christmas lights in October. Makes sense in a way. Why put up lights for only one month when you can have them up for three months? Next year, I’m going to leave my Halloween decorations up year round. I hope the wife doesn’t mind.
Bye Bye Halloween
After Halloween is over, I look forward to the clearance sales. We probably purchase about 90% of our Halloween stuff on clearance. This year, Target was so anxious to get Christmas started, they put the Halloween items on 50% clearance the day after Halloween. By the weekend, they were discounted to 75%. I tried to find costumes for the girls, but they are hard to buy for. My son, on the other hand, is easy. It’s like buying costumes for myself. That’s why I got him two more super hero costumes — the Hulk and the Flash. A guy can never have too many super hero costumes. I think my son looks really cute in the Flash outfit. Even though the Silver Surfer is my favorite super hero, Flash best matches my personality. For those of you who don’t know, Flash has a smart mouth and likes to crack jokes while he is pummeling the bad guy.

I wouldn’t mess with your wife. When moms get stirred up, there’s no stopping them.
Did the pumpkins thieves say anything to y’all after the sheriff questioned them?
We have a family down the street who leave their Christmas decorations up all year round. I’m talking the lights, the manger scene, the candy canes, all of it. And it’s because they are lazy not because they are festive all year long.
The kids were not there when the deputy came. She only talked to the mom who said someone threw the pumpkins from a car.
I need your wife on my side in this stupid school battle in which I’m engaged. She’d stir up some trouble!
The kids look great. So glad you got to indulge in your favorite shopping past time - Halloween clearance.
You should try contacting the local news about your friend’s situation. Sounds like something they would be interested in.
Holy cow, you married Sharon Osbourne! Guaranteed nobody messes with your decorations again, ever. She’s my hero.
I was half-expecting someone to trash our yard after the police came out. Your Steelers play my Browns next Sunday. Go Browns!
Your wife is awesome! Good for her. Let ‘em try and steal your pumpkins again! Go Mommy Forever!
The kids look great in their costumes. I love The Flash. (Did you ever see Daddy Day Care? There’s a boy who wears the same costume and won’t take it off.)
When we went Trick-or-Treating, we passed a house that already had a Christmas tree in the window! Craziness.
Now that you mention it, I do remember the Flash in Daddy Day Care. I don’t have problems getting my son to take off his costume. His problem is keeping it on. He only wears a costume for about 5 minutes and then he puts on another costume.
Where is tinkerbell!?
The Little Monkey doesn’t like costumes. She cried when we put her in the Tinkerbell costume. She will only wear the cheerleader outfit because it looks like a regular dress.
Way to go Mommy Forever! Do not mess with a woman’s kids or pumpkins!
I love the after holiday sales…bet deals. The costumes are super!
Keep smilin!
I love the clearance, but the good stuff gets snapped up really fast.
Oh, my land…the little ones are adorable. Great costumes. I love the “Black Friday” sales as well….best way to pay for stuff is 75% off…Hooray for your wife! Pumpkin stealing should be a crime…those little ones should not have their holiday ruined by inconsiderate degenerate pieces of poo…good for her!

Too bad everything can’t be 75% off all the time.
The kids are adorable, dad gets a medal for walking with back woes and mom obviously wins. :)
Hugs,
Holly
Especially when the little one had to be carried after the first house. Glad the kids wanted to go home after about 20 houses.
Way to go wife!
Remember dad.. Happy Wife ~ Happy Life :0)
gotta love Christmas in october.. NOT! Geez.. I’m ticked that the malls are all decorated up and playing Christmas music the day after halloween. I LOVE Christmas time but give me a break!
A lot of the stores already had their Christmas merchandise up before Halloween was even over.
Your wife rocks! BTW I’d believe her too!
Give me your number, in case I have any problems with my neighbors or my ex. I’ll call your wife.
Diggin’ the upcoming costumes… superheros are the spice of life.
Holy Crap!
Your wife rocks out loud. And why wouldn’t she call the police? Next year I’m going to be her for Halloween. Mommy Forever, with a cape and a picture of a pumpkin on the front. And a meat cleaver as an accessory, just in case.
Hahahaha! That is so smart … getting the decor after the season …
As for the Xmas lights, your neighbor must be from the Philippines. Here, Xmas starts September and ends February.
Hehe. We love our Xmas.
GO WIFE!! See she and I would be friends. I just know it!
the house looks great - you dont want it so creepy that kids are really afraid to come to the house
