Claire had fun trick-or-treating with her cousins on Halloween. I had fun too. :) Here's a picture of her in the monkey costume we found at Goodwill.

Isn't she cute?

Last week, my family got to have dinner together for the first time in a while - everyone except Ben, who is still in boot camp recovering from shoulder surgery. We had a good time, but it would have been better if Ben was there.

This week I went grocery shopping at the new store, Lidl, for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised that a lot of their products are less expensive than Aldi (which is where I normally shop). For example, a half gallon of milk was 93 cents at Lidl and $1.29 at Aldi, and a dozen eggs at Lidl are only 36 cents! I'll definitely be going back. :)
