It was another great Halloween!
Jake wanted to be Dr. Who. I am pretty nerdy, but I don't even know who he is, so...
Allie was a cheerleader with an official cheer outfit from our neighbor who is a really cute Sky View cheerleader!
Nate, in spite of having cuter costumes in the bin, chose to be Spiderman. This costume has seen better days...
Jason was Rafael (or Raf, as he is now known).
These costumes inspired all sorts of before school shenanigans that resulted in a cheerleader and Spiderman running late to the bus.
I was able to see Allie in her classroom, and help with Nate's party. Then, before we knew it, they were home from school and ready for the neighborhood parade.
Jake showed up just in time for some pictures, and then he was off to a party where he (along with 7 other boys) consumed more chips and salsa than anyone thought possible. (I heard about that from my dentist the next week as I lay in a nitrous oxide stupor).
Cute little cheerleaders!
The neighborhood is growing up and our crowd is shrinking. In fact, there were more faces of people I didn't even know than ones that I did.
It was still pretty great.
Jason and Nate took off with friends after the parade and I didn't even catch up with them until they had finished our whole neighborhood. It's crazy how old they all are!
When we did meet up, I took them down the canyon and they lasted until dark, when Nate suddenly realized that the only thing between him and the elements was one thin Spidey suit. It just wasn't cutting it, so we called Daddy to the rescue.
This was their haul...
Allie also took off with friends, and even went up to another neighborhood to see what they had to offer. She came home with a heavy bag and sore feet. She worked for that candy.
It's hard not to be jealous of that pile of candy, but Jake really didn't feel too bad. Allie shared with him and I thought that was pretty nice of her.
It was another great Halloween! I love this time of year!
