Personal | Halloween

Halloween is a lot of fun in our neighborhood…. it’s one of the best days to live on our street. See, our houses are all of 5-10 feet apart, and several of us all in a row don’t have kids yet so we’ve made a tradition of hanging out on our front porches, handing out candy to all the trick-or-treaters and ordering Chinese  take out! This year we decided to set up a mini version of our Who Booth on the porch to take pics of all the candy-takers, we weren’t sure how it would be received but overall the kids enjoyed it, and the parents thought it was a cute idea! Maybe we’ll make it a tradition along with Chinese take out 🙂 I won’t be posting any of the kids photos here since they are all minors & I didn’t get any written permission…. so here’s some we snapped of each other. Jeremy didn’t dress up…. surprise, surprise. I decided at the last minute to be Betty Draper from Mad Men…. I’d been cleaning out my closet the week before and came across a very 1950’s inspired dress…. so I threw it on, praying it would fit, and curled my hair.  I don’t think anyone realized who I was, but I didn’t really care.
