Do I Scare You?

So, it was Halloween night and I was getting the kids ready to go to my parents' house for trick-or-treating and I decided to be a vampire with my son. I put on my makeup first and then got ready to do John's, but the girls were screaming and my husband wasn't home, so I decided to get them over to my mom's quick for some help.

I sat down on my mom's couch to try and feed Chloe a bottle and she reached her little hand up and smeared the blood-red lipstick off my face and all around my mouth. Nice. Now, you're probably wondering - where are the cute pics of your kids in their costumes? They don't exist. My kids do not like Halloween. My girls are not interested in wearing their adorable $40-a-piece costumes that I ordered six weeks before Halloween and then called my friend and asked her to do some professional pictures of (that won't happen). The first night I tried to put the costumes on, it was a screaming wrestling match. They hated them. And John wasn't in the mood to do Halloween because he just got braces and he can't eat candy. I finally talked him into some vampire make-up, but the second he got back from trick-or-treating at like 8 houses, he ran into the bathroom and washed it off quick.

So....you're stuck with a freaky picture of me. AND just to make matters worse, later that night at home, I hadn't had a chance to wash this stuff off yet and my husband, who was standing about 5 feet from me, said "Oh, you washed your make-up off already" and I was like, "Ummm....no I didn't actually. Are you teasing me?" And he was like, "No. It looked like you took it off" and I was like, "You know what? You're a jerk".
