2015 Halloween

The boy who complained about all the walking we did in Boston on our summer vacation had no issues with taking a nice long walk around our neighborhood for trick-or-treating. Even a little light rain did not dampen Kai's Halloween spirit.


Kai was dressed as Kylo Ren, who apparently will be a Darth Vader-like villain in the upcoming new Star Wars movie. He received a number of positive comments about his costume as we went around and a number of folks showed off their own Star Wars apparel to him. I hadn't thought that he particularly cared about what others thought about his Halloween costume, but he remarked that "this is the first time everyone like my costume."

Here he is in front of the house at the end of our block that famously goes all out for Halloween, not only in their decorations but in giving out big ziplock bags of goodies, and serving hot chocolate for the trick-or-treaters and wine for their parents.


After trick-or-treating, we had our usual Saturday movie night, though with a Halloween flavor. My wife added "eyes" to our pizza.


And she made some finger cookies.


And then we settled in to watch Hotel Transylvania.


A good Halloween it was. Hope yours was, too.

  1. Ooh...those fingers look real! haha...glad it was all fun.
    Had to laugh at the 'wine for the parents'...because sometimes when trick-or-treating, we DO deserve that!

    1. The fingers were tasty, too!

      I don't drink wine (or any alcohol for the most part) but I'm sure many parents appreciated that treat!

  2. I am glad Kai had a great time. Those finger cookies were very imaginative...and well done. I am sure Kai had a good time eating those.

    1. Those finger cookies were just right for Halloween. Kai seemed to enjoy everything about Halloween this year.

    1. Hi Betsy, I was extremely busy at work the past several weeks... I used all of my time on the train to do work! So, no time to blog. This week we traveled to visit my sister and her family for Thanksgiving. Thanks for checking!
