This year marks a first in which the Jelly Belly parental units actually OBSERVED their children on Halloween rather than FACILITATE their Halloween. The Halloween advent calender brought us to the 31st day of October with a tantalizing piece of candy corn every day...and as quickly as it came; Halloween left.
(Spiderman found a house that set up shop outside with a projection screen, heated patio warmers, and Moster's vs. Aliens playing. It was a pretty funny sight..."your house is my house"...I guess?)
With a determined Spiderman and Kitty cat in tow, we scoured our Funberg neighborhood for candy and loot. In anticipation of tired bodies and cold grumpy kids we brought the wagon as a back up and wouldn't you know it....not one Jelly Belly roosted in the beast. Little Spiderman legs scurried alongside our adult strides and Ms. JB led the pack the entire night insisting that God made her walk fast and she just couldn't slow down. The kids had a great time. The weather cooperated. The Aunties marked a visit and stuck around in order to let me woop them all at Mexican Train dominoes. The night was superb and I can now relish in the great memories as they will continue to carry us through the next twelve months as we wait for Halloween to make its way back here again next year.
Super cute pictures! Looks like fun!
