Trick or Treat!

We had a great Halloween this year. It was such a big celebration, we stretched it out over a couple of days. On Tuesday, Meredith went trick-or-treating at Augsburg College with her friends Cate and Frank, Jr. A bunch of the students were handing out candy from their rooms and their were other features, including a haunted house that was too much for the four year-olds. Elaine got a lot of attention in her Tigger costume.

On Halloween, Meredith had a Halloween party at school They made and ate spider cookies. In the late afternoon we went to see a Halloween parade and party at the nearby park. In the evening, Meredith was part of a big group of kids that did the rounds in the immediate blocks with parental escorts. It was so exciting, she was often running from house to house. She ended the evening with an impressive amount of loot. It was a bit chilly, but not too cold for a little warm layer over the costume.

Elaine and her dad accompanied the trick-or-treating kids. Strangely enough, Elaine didn't seem all that concerned with the spooky mask.
