Halloween is a bizarre holiday if you really think about it: putting on a costume allows you to ask complete strangers to give you candy.
Still, the kids enthusiasm is quite catching, and who am I to squelch it?
And while I used to be one of those who sneered at store-bought costumes, I breathed a sigh of relief to find three costumes at a thrift store for 50% off (Josie was a caterpillar courtesy of a friend, and Stephen had another plan).
We joined up with some neighbors to make the rounds.
In all there were 4 ninjas, a knight (complete with helmet made from a foil-covered milk jug), Batman, a red carpet movie star, a caterpillar and a dragon.
