What a great Halloween this year!
Both Dave and I were able to leave work early and made it to the kids’ Halloween party at school. This year the school went all out and did a full on costume party. Everyone was dressed up and each class went around the school collecting candy and oranges. It was pretty darn cute. Ajax was Spiderman and Noomi was a neon colored owl. Most of the kids in Ajax’s class were super heroes of some sort.
When we got home my parents, sister and grandma Flo came over and we all enjoyed some of Dave’s wonderful chili before gearing up. Ajax was so excited he kept doing laps around the house. And Noomi was excited because Ajax was excited and was also trying to do laps. It was of course raining outside, but on the up side it was quite warm, which was kind of odd given the season. Given the odd weather we only took Noomi to a few houses in the cul-de-sac. She seemed to enjoy it, though one house had on “scary music” and she did not care for it.
I brought Noomi home and then Ajax, Dave, grandpa and Emily continued trick or treating. Grandma Flo, grandma, Noomi and I passed out candy. Noomi had so much fun carrying around her little plastic pumpkin and dumping out the candy and then putting it back in. She also enjoyed handing out candy to the kids and when Ajax got home he took up the job. Sometimes I think it’s more fun to hand out candy.
