Happy Halloween!

It was a busy, busy Halloween!

The weather was unbelievably beautiful today - 70 degrees if you can believe it! We spent the morning in the backyard attempting to rake, but it was also incredibly windy so as you can see we didn't get very far:



Henry had a grand time playing in the leaves:

This evening we went to a small Halloween party at Jake's house with his friends Lila and Bella. The kids did crafts:



Played:

Then, the fun began. We all went to a local neighborhood where they close the streets off for trick-or-treating. To say that it was insane would be an understatement - Mike compared it to Mardi Gras. Hundreds and hundreds of kids jamming the streets and sidewalks. Every house decorated to the nines with people on their porches with giant bowls of candy. Henry had more fun with his glow stick than the actual trick-or-treating:
