Happy Halloween
November 5, 2008
It was a traditional Halloween at the Huckabee house this year. Our neighborhood usually holds sort of a block party for all ages as the sun begins to go down…
This year was a little more exciting because my daughter actually wanted to go door to door this time. In years past she was typically satisfied with the give outs from the neighbors at the block party. Now, as a kindergartener she is appreciating the vast number of freebies she can get from if she takes her song and dance to the folks on neighboring streets.
My daughter’s Halloween career consists of dressing as a tiny tiger when she was not quite a year… a Hershey’s kiss when she still wasn’t able to speak clearly and verbalize her objection — a batMAN at three (emphasis on MAN… she wouldn’t dare be caught in anything “girl”) — Darth Vader last year and this year, a storm trooper.
We made it home with more of a (candy) loot than the law should allow. The batteries on her STAR WARS lazer gun didn’t run out and it was warm enough to leave the storm-trooper-uniform uncovered (didn’t need a jacket) — so in all it was a very successful evening. Hope you were able to enjoy the event with your little ones.
