It was a dark and spooky night...

No, actually it was a gorgeous fall night on Halloween. The air was crisp and clear and the moon was pretty and bright (although not full). We took Julia for a walk around our neighborhood but only actually knocked on a couple of doors. Mostly, we just wanted to show off her costume and to let her see all of the other kids.

After we walked around our neighborhood, we put our big bowl of candy on a chair on our front porch and went over to some friends' house whose neighborhood really goes all out for Halloween. It was fun to drink some spiked coffee on the porch and watch all of the kids troop down the street in their costumes. Julia was wide-eyed looking at everything and seemed to enjoy being out that night (although there is one grumpy pumpkin picture below when she started to wear out!).
