Halloween 2021
Hooray for the return of another “normal” activity! The kids and their friends ran through the neighborhood collecting an incredible number of full size candy bars this year. (I must admit, I jumped on this train of thought this year and it was amazingly simple – and about the same price, if not cheaper, than buying all of those mini bars of candy.)
While kids did their thing, a friend of mine (and mom to 4 of the kids,) hung out, handed out candy and sipped cider. Yum!
Two dogs and to Darth Vaders. These four made quite the haul!
Halloween 2020 🎃
As with almost everything else 2020, Halloween is a bit different this year. The Shecklets did different activities today. (We opted to skip door to door trick-or-treating this year.)
Shecklet #2 did this with his friend:
Shecklet #1 and Shecklet #3 did this with Grandma & Grandpa:
And Shecklet #4 went trunk or treating at our church. Kids typically dress up as a saint for our parish’s annual All Saints Day party. This year, all on her own, #4 said she wanted to be St. Philomena in honor of her baby sister. I may or may not have gotten a little misty-eyed when she told me her plan.
Halloween 2019 👻 🎃
This year for Halloween we have a ninja, a dog, Darth Vader, and an ostrich rider. (Though the ostrich rider may or may not be using her costume this year due to it feeling “too big.” We’ll see what she decides to do come time to go trick-or-treating.)
For good measure, I tried on Shecklet #4’s costume. 😂 If she doesn’t use it, I might just have to wear it to hand out candy.
Carving pumpkins 🎃
Friends of ours invited us for dinner and pumpkin carving on Saturday night. The kids all had a blast and ended up with some creative finished products. Can you guess who carved each pumpkin?

Only one Shecklet wanted to carve their pumpkin this year. We made cinnamon and sugar flavored seeds per Shecklet #2’s request.
Halloween 2016
I took Shecklet #4 to the office to trick or treat and say hi to Papa. After that stop, we headed to the house to see Nana.
Three of the Shecklets wanted to go trick-or-treating this year. #2 decided to stay home, hand out candy, and count kids. It was a drizzly night, but everyone had fun. Shecklet #4 asked when she could go again 🎃
