Best moment this week:  Having a fun Halloween celebration with my kiddos at school and my hubby at home.  I dressed up as a pumpkin from the story The Biggest Pumpkin Ever. I thought that was fitting with how I feel now!  My assistant dressed up as baby Harper and it was hilarious to say the least.  We had so much fun! Then I came home and we took some fun pictures for Harper and carved an H pumpkin to light up on Halloween for her.  We had tons of trick or treaters and lots of fun with our neighbors!
