The kids had a lot of opportunities to dress up this year. The first came at our local library's Halloween storytime and trick or-treat around the library. Todd took the kids and a friend and they ran into another friend or two there. The organizer of our main homeschool group put together a play for the kids to perform at a local retirement center, then again at a senior center. They got to wear their costumes, use lots of props and sing some cute songs, besides the added benefit of allowing the kids to mingle with the senior citizens at the performances. It was a great experience and the kids had alot of fun. We actually did go trick-or-treating, too. Our subdivision doesn't have much activity Halloween night so we went to Wake Forest to hang out with a friends family who has a hoppin neighborhood Halloween night. Wow, what fun we had this season. If you don't recognize the boys, Arin is Cyclops, one of the X-men with laser eyes that Todd fashioned for him from an old laser level. Evan is continuing his streak four years running of being a video game character. First was Luigi, then Mario, then Starfox, and this year he was Toad.
