Halloween was beautiful this year. I love the tradition in Oakland. After school, about 4:00 the children go up and down Main Street collecting candy from the local businesses. Later in the evening the kids can also go door to door. Alexander was a cowboy. We had to buy a new cowboy hat because the hat that went with the costume was too small for his fat head. Audrey was a UK cheerleader. We had to show our Kentucky spirit.
Alexander was a little shy and had to be prompted to say, “Trick or Treat,” and “Thank you.” After collecting candy from each house, he would say, “Can we go to another house?” I think he would have gone all night long if we had let him. He came home with lots of candy. Audrey enjoyed chewing on the candy wrappers.
