An Egyptian Princess, a Tootsie Roll, a Vampire, a Ninja, a Cow Girl, a Veterinarian and a Cat hit the streets.
We walked all the way over to the most decked out Halloween house in town. It has all of these spooky decorations and a spider jumped out and scared Colter out of his skin. He will be traumatized by that for years.
Candy hauls were examined while we watched the The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
Lorien has been hitting the streets with her friends (and no parental chaperone) for a few years now. She was Jack Frost. We made her costume. While looking for brown pants she had the audacity to complain when I picked out some stretchy workout pants. "Mom, he lived in the 1700's! His pants were leather!" I questioned her desire to have an historically accurate imaginary character. Eventually we settled on corduroy pants. I didn't have the heart to inform her how historically inaccurate a hoodie would have been. Pick your battles.
