My Halloween
Luckily, the weather turned out an A-ok for the little ghouls and boys who came out to relieve me of pant-loads of candy. My neighbor and her husband came over for the few hours to dole out the goods. She had a Sarah Palin mask and he had a Salvador Dali. They are both eclectic artsy fartsy types, so I wasn't surprised at the Dali.
Neighbor on the other side who has a stressful life caring for his wife of 50 years with alzheimer decided to also join the festivities. He brought his Burmese Mountain dog to add to the fun! (When the kids asked what kind of dog she was, I said she is a Chihuahua dressed up as a Burmese Mountain dog for Halloween. Heehee)
So many kids had good to great costumes and were courteous and friendly (with the exception of the few whom I made cry due to the horrifying nature of my costume.) My favorite trick or treat costumes were the two girls who had characters from "The Purge" movie. Creepy cool!
There is no better way to get closer to your neighbors than celebrating a holiday or festival in such a public fashion. Now, I know my cool neighbors have a hot tub on their back deck. "HELLO, I'm coming over with champagne and water ready clothing!"
Too many parents brought their infants by, now who gives candy to an infant? They just wanted free candy......pfffft
Hoping everyone here who celebrated Hallow day had a great one!
