I hope you got out and took the kids to Lowes this morning.  We had a great time and Shawn is loving his ball toss.

Another fun thing that was going on today was a Pumpkin Event at Michaels.  For $5 we got a craft pumpkin and a bag full of stuff to decorate it.  Shawn made a cute little dracula pumpkin and had a blast.

While we were out that way we stopped at BJ’s and got some free food from the sample ladies and gas.  It was .15 cheaper there today than at the station across the street.  I imagine they’ll go down tomorrow but still alot cheaper.  We also stopped into the Walmart out there and found 3D Sidewalk Chalk on clearance.  They had packs priced from $2-$5 so go check them out, we picked up one of the big packs for Shawn for Christmas or his birthday.

If you missed the events this weekend don’t worry.  On the 24th Lowes will have a monster magic trick event (be sure to preregister) and Michaels will have 2 more events this month.  On the 25th from 1-3 they will be making Halloween TShirts all the decorating supplies will be provided by the store you just have to buy a shirt.  Then on the 31st from 10-12 they will be giving out free trick or treat pail plus free coloring stuff, a free crayola pencil topper demo and a make and take halloween frame.  There will also be free balloons and candy for the kids.
