But first Halloween which is one of my favorite holiday's on the calendar. It always has been. I loved dressing up as a kid and the candy was a bonus.
I put up our graveyard complete with some new skeletons yesterday morning. I finished the comic book sort so I could grab comics quickly to give out to the kids. Caroline took her bath and then put on her Cinderella costume.
Princess Caroline
Ariel came home and dressed up in her costume. She was a social Butterfly. She got a number of her friends together and they took Caroline off to trick or treat. Caroline did better at it this year than she did last year. She came home with a large bag of candy while her sister and company went out to see what else they could score.
Meanwhile I gave out comic books and candy to the little ones. The comics were appreciated by all the kids. They were so excited. The girls were happy to get comics where the main character was a girl. The boys loved their comics too. Star Wars went over very well this year. I even had some horror comics for the older teens that come by later. We went through about half the comics I sorted. I think I am going to hang onto the rest until next year.
A number of people asked if it was OK for them to take pictures of their kids standing in the graveyard. Apparently we were the only people on the block to do something like that. The owners of the haunted house sold their house last year and the new owners didn't decorated like the previous owners did.
Overall the weather was just about perfect and the kids were all polite.
I am grateful for Halloweens that go well.
