Halloween Happenings

We extended Halloween celebrations this year over a few days and events.

First, early in the week we took in a trunk or treat at a local church.  We'd never been to one of these before and it was much more than I was expecting.  Each car had a theme, with a game and people at that car dressed up to go along with the theme.

Halloween is a fun holiday to work at a public library, especially in the Youth Services Department, and it was fun to have an excuse to dress up.  Can you find me in this picture?

Halloween night the girls dressed up and we did trick or treating around our neighborhood, where they gave awesome treats!  More than one house handed out full-size candy bars.   We forgot to take a picture until the end of the night, when Anja had shed her wings, but here are the girls!

Anja thought the best way to investigate
her candy at the end of the night was to just
stick her head in the bag.
