We had a great time trick-or-treating this year.
Yiayia and
Papouli came up from Miami for a few days.
Yiayia decided to dress as a french maid while
Papouli decided to forgo a costume...he said his idea was too risque. Some of the neighbors thought
Yiayia's outfit was a little risque!
Alex decided on a silver skeleton mask, last year's Grim Reaper outfit and the requisite bloody knife. Helen naturally chose to be a Princess. Depending on when you asked her, she was either Cinderella or Snow White. Originally, Will was going to wear last year's monkey outfit but it was so hot on Halloween we got him a glow-in-the-dark skeleton shirt instead.
Yiayia and I took the kids all around the neighborhood, while the men stayed home to hand out candy. Jimmy wanted to go off on his own this year, which we let him...for a little while. Eventually, we caught up with him. After about an hour and a half the kids came home to dump their loot and grab a drink. (
I can't believe someone made these coffins filled with candy. Cute, but way too time consuming.)
Will and Helen were too tired to go back out so they stayed home and started digging into their stash. Alex and Jimmy decided to go out for another round. All in all it was a great night and we ended up with way too much candy. I guess we'll just have to help the kids eat it!
