Costumes
Here's my last Halloween post. We certainly did have a fun day, but now it's time to move on to the next big holiday -- Christmas! Thanksgiving doesn't count... I like eating turkey and stuffing as much as the next guy, but visiting with relatives is not my idea of a good time.
My kids decided on Halloween costumes yesterday, a zombie for my son, and a lion for my daughter. At some point in the afternoon, my daughter changed her mind and ended up as a dalmatian for the evening trick-or-treating. We hit both the mall (for about two pounds of candy) and our neighborhood (less than half that). All in all, a good haul of treats that will prevent me from having to buy them candy from now until next October. We capped off the night by watching "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" (the Disney cartoon, not the Johnny Depp film).

Great costumes! That is one creepy zombie.
Instead of the mall, we have trick-or-treating of the stores in our downtown--my daughter went out with a friend and her mom after school, and they raked in an obscene amount of candy. Then I took her and her brother out in the neighborhood later. We now have perhaps enough candy to last for TWO Halloweens, especially since I did not plan for the Monday level of trick-or-treating (we ran out last year), and so over-bought candy to give out.
Very cool costumes!
