Trick and Treating in Oakdale

We gathered at Kirstin's house on Halloween evening to go trick or treating with the kids. Tana made Gigi's costume. She is Boo from Monsters Inc.
Lorelei was a sweet ballerina bunny, even sweeter afterwards with all the candy.
They are anxious to get out into the neighborhood. You can see Lorelei climbing out the door.
Pirate Joe is not afraid to take a bite out of a skeleton.
Marching along.
Liam was the Smiling Batman, with the mask in hand. Not sure what Logan's fascination with sticking out the tongue is, but every time I snapped a picture it was sticking out. He was the "Bad" Spiderman.
This was across the street. If a decoration said Halloween on it, these guys had it, including barking skeleton dogs and motions activated crawling slugs, to mummies and flying bats. And don't forget the fog bubble machine - when the bubbles broke it released the fog.

All night long Liam would say "Trick or Treat; Smell my feet; Give me something good to eat". He loved saying that. He was so proud of himself.
Then there was this little "Yip-yip" dog with a costume. They laughed and laughed at him; not that he did anything to laugh about. It was just jumping up and down at them.
My bag is getting kind of heavy.
Mom had to help Boo with the candy collection because of the sleeves, and besides, the hat did not stay on.
Then it was full circle when Kirstin came to the door.
Good times for all.
