Yesterday was a really nice day. I could not believe the perfect weather! Aaron and I were able to go play sand volleyball for a couple of hours in the middle of the day... may I add that Will and I smoked Aaron and Brian! Okay, well, maybe not smoked but that sounds a ton better than barely beating them. We only played 3 matches and it took us almost 2 hours. One of the games went all the way to 30, so it was a pretty good match up! I'd much rather get my exercise in doing something fun, and I love volleyball! Playing 2 on 2 in the sand is exhausting but it's so much fun.
We were able to take the kids to trunk or treat last night. They got so much candy it's ridiculous! I only have 3 kids... what do you all do with all that candy, expecially if you have 4, 5, 6, 7 kids? I'm really debating on whether to just have them eat it all until they get sick of it (I think that may shut down their immune systems though) or just put it in a ziplock bag and put it up in the cupboard (but I get so tired of the begging for candy). I read in family fun magazine that you can do scientific experiments with some of it. I think I may have to try it. Any other suggestions?
