I need to post a few pictures from Halloween before the Christmas boxes come out. There is talk that my mom is going to put up her Christmas lights tomorrow so I had better do this quick. This year, we did Halloween in our neighbourhood. We started with a quick dinner of monster toes and ketchup (weiners rolled in dough), witches fingers (mozza cheese sticks with pickle fingernails) and fang punch (pomegranate juice) Clara was a very beautiful angel (no surprise there), Sam was Spiderman (he even wore his Spiderman jammies under his costume) and Will was a bat (Rocco's costume from last year). For the record, I was a vampire, not a witch. We hit the streets by 5:30pm starting at YaYa's next door and ended up a couple blocks down the way where we hit the trick or treat Mother Lode. The night ended with cupcakes, juice boxes (wine for the adults) and a firework display outside on our street. I picked up a $40 kit and let Clara and Sam pick out a firework each. Clara choose the "Silver Fairy" and Sam opted for the "Meteor Invasion" (mostly because it had a green package, his current favourite colour). There were no injuries, just a close call when Jake lit the "Python" in Papou's blue car wash bucket which then exploded into pieces causing some shrapnel to whiz by YaYa's face. In all, quite exciting.
