Halloween Yahoo!

Let the craziness begin! It always seems like when we reach Halloween that it's just a whirl-wind of work, fun, shopping and exhaustion until we find ourselves sitting on the couch all day Christmas day in PJ's and totally content not to even get dressed until noon the next day.

So let the craziness begin with Halloween!The Kids diligently carving their masterpieces

The Pumpkins--this is so Brad's kind of thing, you know the surgeon in him loves to cut and create. Here is our attempt without the pro. They actually did a great job!

The Ward Party with the Witch, Dorothy, Sarah Palin and Lego Man



Lego man, he totally concocted this costume all by himself.
Look at a generic Lego man--spitting image!

The cutest little witch I ever did see!

Dorothy--with rubby slippers and toto too!

We had a great holiday but we sure missed Brad--he LOVES Halloween!

Brad at His New Home

The first case--bullet removal!


Forward Surgical Team home

His address is:
Major Brad Matthews
2nd FST, ATTN: Medics
FOB Lagman
APO, AE 09355

He is in a very remote location so the mail takes quite awhile (almost 3-4 weeks). I know he would love to get anything from anyone! They have some down time to kill so I know he would love anything that could fill the time--books, movies etc. We miss him so much! We're happy he is there to help those who need him but, we are counting down the days to his return. He is still able to view our home email so you can also send him messages that way as well.

Thanks for your support!
