HaPpY HaLlOwEen!

Today was Halloween. James is working. Addy and I spent our first halloween by starting off at the dogpark with my mom and her dog Gus. Addy did very well. She ate, then slept. So I had a little time to focus on Jake. After that, we went to another dogpark and met up with Bailey and her husky Nikolai. An hour later, Addy was screaming NO MORE DOGPARKS! So we dropped Jakey off at Grandmas.
My parents came over this evening. We made healthy- homemade pizza. I made the dough in my bread machine... a combo of whole wheat flour and spelt. We used low-fat mozzerella, and turkey-pepperoni. I added some pineapple to one pizza as well. On the weight-watcher scale, our pizzas were very low in points. And contrary to the frozen store-bought pizzas, very low in sodium as well. We may have even saved a few bucks too! And they were YUMMY!
I do not like scarey movies, or lots of candy. The thought of spending sixty bucks on a costume I will only wear one night is not appealing either. Needless to say, if Halloween did not exist, I would not be sad.
Addy and I had a mellow first Halloween. I am looking forward to seeing her get excited in the years to come. However, I am glad they are not in the near future, and we can spend these nights with family.
