Happy Halloween!

The boys were very happy in their costumes. I considered painting their faces but realized they would only use it as a source of sadness. Oscar was a scary ghost elephant who said "Boo!" to everyone, and John was a bear, duh. Edie, nominally, was a cat.

We all went trick-or-treating, even Edie! It was a cold night, but there were a ton of people out, and nearly every house had lights on. Everyone was very friendly to the boys. John only fell a few times, usually when he was backing up so the front door could be opened.

They got SO MUCH candy! It will take some serious work for it to be eaten in any reasonable time, say, before Easter. But I have faith that it will happen. All eaters welcome.
