Wow! what a GREAT Halloween. Maybe it was because for the first time "D" and I let the kids walk up to doors alone while we waited in the street-yelling out "say trick-or-treat" and don't forget "thank you". Less walking for mom and dad is always good. Or maybe it was because for the first time neither child had a complete meltdown 1/2 a mile away from the house. Whatever the reason the evening was a complete sucess. There were tons of families out-kids running around everywhere. One neighbor had created a haunted "lawn" with a lighted spooky trail and multiple special effects. Awesome. The kids loved it. The key to our success was going over to the other side of our neighborhood where more kids live. I love our secluded corner of the neighborhood-but when it come to trick-or-treating....it isn't too great. Jill had a party at school-thus the two costumes.
