Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na...Halloween!

We celebrated our second Halloween in Rochester with another visit to IBM's trick-or-treat event. It really is fantastic. It was very cold this year and we were able to stay indoors and enjoy ourselves. Sam made out like a bandit. There was definite weight to his pumpkin bucket by the time we were done.

Grandpa Mark met us outside. The costume doesn't have the full effect without the eye mask and covered by his coat.

I had to fight Sam to get him to wear this. I finally convinced him to wear it for 10 seconds so a few people could see it. He shocked me by wearing it the rest of the day, even when it slid down so the eye holes were over his cheekbones. He could only see by tipping his head all the way back.

Matilda was, of course, mildly annoyed. Her shirt says, "I'm skin n' bones...NEED MORE CANDY!"

When we were done trick-or-treating Sam played on Grandpa's phone. It is Sam's favorite thing in the world.

Meanwhile...Matilda continued to be mildly annoyed.
Thanks, Grandpa, for another fun Halloween (and for taking pictures)!

I love all of these pictures but especially the one of Emilie adjusting Sam's mask. That one is my new desktop background.
