When the calendar struck October 1, we started decorating the house, watching scary movies together (Monster house! Muppets Haunted Mansion! The Addams Family!) We carved pumpkins and maybe ate a bit too much candy.
And after all that fun build-up, Halloween 2021 turned out to be one of the best Halloweens ever! But don't take my word for it, take yours! We trick-or-treated with the Hanrihans, Longs, Larsens, and Rainey-Ellises in a new neighborhood and after the panedmic, everyone was so excited to have a regular-ish Halloween that they were super generous and gave out so much candy!
Julia, you got a full-size snickers and ran down the road with it high in the sky like a victory trophy! "I GOT A FULL SIZE SNICKERS!"
Aidan, your basket was so full that it was almost too heavy for you to carry!
You guys got candy and play-do and crayons and more candy! And more candy!
And when we got home, we were able to GIVE candy to neighbors and trick-or-treaters!
And we got to do it as a family... one creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky family!
And for me, that is what Halloween is all about-- being together with friends and family and divulging in a LOT of sweetness together.
Trick or Treat!
