Hannah loves Halloween. One of the reasons it is nice to have her is that her excitement causes me to celebrate. This is such a busy time of year, even without the holiday; it is good to have a reason to stop and have a little fun.
The weather was nice too this year. About 80 degrees. The Saturday before All Hallow's Eve, we went to the church Trunk-or-Treat. Hannah wanted to be a vampire this year. I offered to make her a dress, but she wanted a suit and some scary teeth. I did a dress for myself so I could be a Vampire Slayer (See Buffy from the 1990s) and that bumped Brian to Wesley Windham Price, my watcher.
I didn't like the background on this picture so I played with the editing functions and got something I think is a little whimsical, but not too creepy.
Here is my serious face. Hannah did a better job pulling off scary.
She is ready to bite into anyone who won't give her candy.
On Halloween, she went to school and they had a parade. She found an eagle to escort her.
She also put on a bit of a show for her classmates. Her teacher says that she is quite the entertainer.
At night, we all dressed up again in our costumes and trick-or-treated. Hannah is old enough to go to doors we tell her by herself. We only go to one neighborhood, but she still accrues a buck of candy. She has never finished going through that neighborhood. She always tires and asks to leave. 
We didn't have any fancy food. It is too hard to find something everyone likes. But it was a good time.
