Sweethearts on the Hill

  With a new city comes new traditions...   Richie and I are now officially partners in crime in the Halloween costume world - and we kicked off our debut duo as Slash and Axl Rose. Never have I been so inclined to get a tattoo.... Someday....  Luke went with Harry Potter Sam brought back the Zombie costume from last year (which meant that I got to do his makeup again... soooo fun!) And Charlie was Monopoly Man :)  Always something random for this kid.  I love it! Living our best lives in Franklin, TN

With it being our first Halloween in 15 years away from Dunbarton Oaks, we had to go big. It's always been one of our favorite holidays, and it's hard to beat the extravaganza we've always been able to enjoy right outside our front door in Knoxville.  The kids handled it like champs and Richie and I decided to go all badass...  We had a blast...  and it sooooo gave me the itch for a tattoo...!  Someday it will happen. And a nose ring....  not so sure about that one though. Sam loved his zombie costume from last year so much, he decided to double up on that...  And I got another run at doing his makeup, which I thoroughly enjoy It's not often you get to see Slash and Harry Potter in the same place... but we managed to make it happen. And Charlie put together this great Monopoly Man costume... love his creativity. Another year of off the wall pumpkin carvings.... so fun! These are the days, right?  Gotta do it up big while we've got these kids at home to enjoy it with
