As the kids grow older, Halloween is definitely evolving for us. This year, Laura and Danny went over to Meghan (and the Grecos’) neighborhood while Tim and I stayed behind to hand out candy. Falling on a Monday night, the evening was a tad more reined in, but we still made a fire out front and even enjoyed some burgers.
Laura’s skier costume was heavily influenced by her school friends, and made a lot more sense in the group context.
Danny’s lobster costume was a last-minute foray into the basement stash, where he appreciated Clare’s investment during her senior year of high school! I had requested a photo of the two of them in costume, and was so pleased and proud when he texted me one not long after they arrived.
Laura and Meghan continued their tradition of spending the evening together, and Meghan’s costume definitely cracked us up. (It also required some escorting by Laura, as it was not super mobile when it came to stairs!) It was another record candy haul, too!
A lot may change over the years - but my cat-o-lantern remains a staple!
