We Flew the Coop

The two Schwartz chicks flew the coop tonight. We packed our organic (additive, trans fat and hydrogenated oil free) snacks, apples and super cool glow bracelets to our lovely neighbor's house. If I were being 100% honest I would mentioned that I was just too lazy to clean and the idea of visiting was much more appealing... In any event, we had a fun filled evening.

I wasn't going to subject Sophia to the trauma of having photos taken of her as a child in some ridiculous Halloween costume that her goofball mother purchased to make the rest of the world laugh....so I stuffed her into this chicken costume. (No danger to permanent damage, right??)

After one run in with a group of hooligans that refused to obey the "Lights on=Welcoming Trick-or-Treaters" law we packed up our goodies and headed out. We planned on a peaceful evening. I would sit on the floor sipping some sort of cider concoction, our Sophia Chicken would flap her wings and wobble around on her new found crawling legs, and we'd offer our slightly healthy Halloween snacks to creatively dressed children.....

Man were we wrong...

There was a terrible accident on the block! While hiking up the street to the neighbor's we were passed by speeding emergency vehicles (VERY unsafe, considering the narrow road!!). We hurried to see the tragedy causing this "Gaper Delay" on Leonards Lane only to find .....
Onlookers were horrified...


We are still a little shaken up. Who would have even imagined using the ol' Cubby as a weapon?!? It's hard to shake the terrible images from our heads as there are still straw all over the yard.

Happy Halloweeeeeeeeeeeeeeennn!
