Our Halloween was a happy one. Filled with a
COSTUME CRAZY CUB SCOUT PACK MEETING,
and an ALWAYS FABULOUS WARD PARTY,
and a KINDERGARTEN EXTRAVAGANZA
like no other, and the SPECTACULAR SCHOOL PARADE,
and the HIGHLY ANTICIPATED TRICK OR TREATING WALLAPOOLOOZA!
Ahhhh, Arizona!
Where can you find a more wonderful place on Halloween night
to sit outside with friends and neighbors, share food, hand out treats and enjoy beautiful evening temps. And I dare say there are not many places where a five year child can be dressed up in NOTHING but a blue speedo, a swim cap with the American flag on it and the name Phelps across the side and nine 'gold' medals hung around his neck. I so wish I had a picture of that little boy.
In the words of my neighbor:
I think Halloween should be officially celebrated on the
last Friday of October every year.
How fun was that ~ not having to hurry them around the
trick or treating tour, trying to keep them from eating too
much candy and then throwing them in the shower, brushing
teeth and getting them to bed by 8 p.m. for school the next day!!
LOVED IT!!
