Happy Halloween

 I think we could just send the kids out in regular clothes on Halloween, because it's usually so cold everyone bundles up anyway.  We did the best we could warming Allison with her Draculaura costume - only one person recognized it so don't feel badly if you have no idea.  She's from Monster High.  Jacob went as Boba Fett - carrying on from his pinewood derby car last spring and rocket. 

Allison and Grace (bride).
Allison was also the shortest (but oldest) of the neighbor kids - Grace, Allison, Jacob, Lucas (football player), Tyson, and Jacob K (who were zombies).  Everybody seemed to be heading out at the same time.

Brian took the kids out - because there is usually a house they visit with beer and brats - so Brian typically takes the kids trick-or-treating.  This year they went to Jacob teacher's house (opposite direction) and ended up walking past the elementary school and into the neighborhood on the other side.  I was called to rescue them a few hours later to save what would have been a 20-30 minute walk back home.

The kids had fun.  They have lots of candy - which means they don't notice if I pilfer a piece or two.
