Halloween 2019

Halloween was a lovely warm evening this year. There was a big storm heading our way though, which added an ominous wind to the night.

Here's Alice, Edwin, Ellie, and Simon. Ellie is Peppa Pig.


Simon reprised his role as a skeleton (I love that we get 2 years out of each costume and that he doesn't care at all), while Alice was a cat, courtesy of a hand-me-down costume from her cousin Kaelyn.


We went to our friend Andrea's for supper, along with Izzy and Genevieve.


All three third-grade girls independently chose to be cats this year.


We went farther trickortreating this year than any previous year. It was also the first year Simon didn't need carried at all. Here the kids are resting in one of the cul-de-sacs.  The parents soon shepherded them on to more candy collecting.


Once at home, the kids gleefully dumped out their candy.



Alice sorted the piles in to what she doesn't like (left) and what she likes (right).


Meanwhile, Simon likes everything, so he sorted his into categories.
