Chris: "Okay. Have fun!"
Me: "It'll just take me a...."
Mags: "Mama! Mama! Where are you? I NEEEEEEEEEEED you."
Me: "Seriously, Chris? She has a sixth sense for these things. It's like when I try to use the bathroom by myself."
Chris: "Or shove an entire candy bar in your mouth. She always knows."
Me: "It's creeptastic."
Halloween is drawing closer. It's a time of year when our creative sides come out in full force. As many of you know, I also co-host another blog site called Night Light Stories with my husband, Chris. We write original children's stories together. I record them and we put the audio out on iTunes for free. Since the Fall is my favorite season and Halloween is Chris' favorite holiday, we really enjoy writing our seasonal stories and episodes. Chris also hosts his own podcast called A.T.TIPSCAST where he shares free or commonly found technology based strategies that can be used by anyone.
Seeing how we've been producing both these podcasts for 5+ years, I thought I'd share our Fall-ish and Halloween-ish episodes with you. Enjoy!

I cannot WAIT until Liv gets home tomorrow so we can listen to this together. She wants to be a zombie clown for Halloween, so this is right up your alley. I foresee a NLS Halloween marathon in the near future. Thanks for all you do!
