It took no time to get into the Halloween spirit here. We didn’t get around to carving pumpkins until Halloween evening but it was a hit with Amelia constantly encouraging and praising Dave on his carving skills. Will was a train engineer and Amelia was a fairy princess this year. It fit their personalities very well. We trick-or-treated with some neighbors, and after the first house Will had gotten the hang it with his greeting of “trick-or-treat, two candies”. Our neighborhood was also quite festive with people sitting outside around little campfires and greeting all the kids. We’re looking forward to the rest of the holiday season.
