belated Halloween....

At last my belated Halloween post.....  how could I neglect these photos of my littles!
What a group of characters!
Hippie Jud says "Respect the classics, man"

Jack the race car driver...I would get out of his way.

Drew the "Evil Gnome"....terrifying to all.


Brobee never looked so cute.


When you live out in the country you get to throw hay bails in the back of your open trailer....load up the kids and grown ups with their own treats....and it the road.  Tons of fun!

Halloween trailer style

Why not start a Halloween post with our very own Halloween cat....
this is Felix, one of the 2 black cats that live at our house!  Here he was freaked out by a neighbor's dog. Now onto Halloween at the Rikkers!...trailer style!



Halloween 2010
Mario (aka Judson), Rex from Toy Story (Jack), Swampfire form Ben 10 (Drew), 
Purple People Eater (Tessa) & Andy as Best Daddy
Our silly cat...who is rather dog-like, followed the kids to the neighbors for trick-or-treating


In Monroe, you can go to "town" and hit all kinds of houses door to door.  We live just outside of town in the country, so we go trailer style.  (I hate to admit it, but this trailer does come in handy from time to time)   The kids loved being able to jump out at houses in our neighborhood.  Amazingly, the kids did awfully well with candy.  Since people out here don't have lots of trick or treaters the boys come away with loads of candy people don't want to keep!  
(Hence, I have way to much candy tempting me at all hours of the day!)
Rolling through the streets on Halloween in the trailer is all kinds of fun...making memories!

Court date!!!!

At last.....we have our court date! November 20th!!!! We will wait for this date and hope and pray that it isn't delayed. Delays are always possible in Ethiopia...but I am putting no energy into that and will instead hope for the court to be moved up! ;) When we pass court we will officially have been declared Tessa's parents in the eyes of Ethiopia. At that time we can post a photo of our sweet girl. And then we will be one big step closer to setting our travel plans.
I can't wait!

Here is a photo of the boys trying on their halloween costumes....

Thank you for visiting the fiddlehead report!
