Imagine a street on Halloween like a movie set. Houses decorated with over the top fright. Street lamps shining down upon ankle deep maple leaves. Children squealing with delight. Now...imagine it soooooo crowded that they need barricades and you hope you don't lose your kid by the end of the night. Oh, and they give out little tiny rock hard candies because they will see kids by the thousands. Thousands. Not even lying. The little neighborhood of charm and wonder turned into crazyfest over the last few years and became a bit much.
Tonight, we headed to a new neighborhood. I've been candy hunting with Jenne for almost as many years as I've been taking my children out...but this year we moved the location. It was quaint and the people were quite friendly and in her very own neighborhood we actually could say hello to people that we knew. Candy was better. The occasional scary mask was a treat. Other than dodging puddles and snow and rock salt...it was really fun.
Thanks to the little octopus for letting the two 50's kids join in the excitement!!!
