Halloween recap


Wow forgot to mention how halloween went. So Diana finally settled on a costume the night before. All month she changed her mind at least 3 times a day. She wanted to be everything from a pumpkin to "Indy" Jones. We thought at long last she was going to be Cinderella. She even had a Cinderella dress. Kath and I were going to be Batman and Batgirl. We found cheap Batman masks and capes from the dollar store. To cap off our costumes Kath stitched bat symbols to our black sweat shirts. Sure the costumes were cheap but we were just going to be walking around our complex. So while Kath was getting the shirts ready Diana decided she wanted to be Robin. Even though she had a cinderella costume this was kind of cool. She had her robin costume from the comic book convention and now we could be one happy Bat family. On October 31st we stepped out of the house and realized that we were the only adults dressed up this year. No worries our friends John and Rach always dress up. That wasnt to be the case this year. Oh well. Trick or treating was fun. Everyone loved Diana's costume and a few times kids would say hi Batman to me. Diana was done trick or treating about half an hour after we started. Kath and i sat out for the next hour and handed out candy. Gotta tell ya,not real impressed with the costumes this year. A lot of kids showed up with no costumes at all. Kath finally called a girl out and asked why no costume. The kids answer : "I'm a bully." Touche costumeless kid. Getting tired okids with unoriginal costumes we took the last 10 recces peanut butter cups inside and called it a night. Can't wait for next year to see what Diana wants to dress as. Should be interesting.
