Boo!

Great party, Todd. Johnny ... sorry I threw a table at you. At least it was a small, light table. The nearly 3 hour walk home was enlightening. It's been a while since I had a long walk ... in a sheer dress, blonde wig and biking shoes on a 25 degree night. Mark E got great photos from the party. Fortunately, I'm not swiping them to share.

Angela and Sylvia prepare to carve pumpkins yesterday morning. Sylvia is wearing one of her favorite outfits -- no pants.

Sylvia is ready to hit the trick-o-treating town dressed as a pensive rabbit. She is just upset because she knows B Rose pulls off the bunny suit (scroll to 2/28) better than she does. Just ask Al Franken.

Mama Bear lights the lantern. Sylvia drew the mouth. She is already showing some Cubist tendencies. Afterward we hiked as a family over to Lyndale Farmstead Park. A volunteer staff set up the community center in prime Halloween style with games for the kids and treats like glow sticks, necklaces and bracelets. Oh, and some candy too. Coffee and pie for the parents. An inflatable jumpy ball-filled kid palace! On the way home Sylvia hit up a few houses. Still working on that "trick or treat" phrase. Very interested in eating candy between stops, though.

Happy All Hallow's Eve everyone!
