Last night was Halloween. Definitely was a fun night for AL and myself.
We ended up handing out candy in her neighborhood up in Battle Ground. I got there a bit late, AL indicated that about 20 had already come by since I arrived around 7:30pm or so. Prior to that, I had a physical trainer appointment, and also had to drop off a car for my dad, so I was a bit delayed.
I finally arrived and found that AL had baked up some hot dog wraps and tater tots for dinner, really simple but food nonetheless. We proceeded to eat and hang out while the ever continuing stream of kids knocked on her door. We must have ended up with about 100 kids coming by, a significant number of them were Spiderman (or Venom, in some cases), or ninjas.
I can't really think of one that stood out from the crowd as most creative though, but a lot of them were pretty good and not store bought. That impressed me. It's good to see creativity out there and not just things bought off the shelf. A few were out for their first time, in the typical bumblebee outfit, or a small child dressed up in an outfit being rolled around by their parents in their strollers.
When 9pm rolled around, both AL and I were really tired. We both have developed a cold that is becoming taxing on us, so good rest was what we needed. Definitely a fun night for both of us.
