Halloween was an adventure this year. The first year that my daughter , SLC, could really could get into it. Robely had her watching an trick or treat episode of Ni Hao Kai Lan, hoping some if it would sink in. I guess it worked, because by 6:15 my little girl was chanting “go-go” and pointing down the street. And go-go she did, wearing Robely and one of our neighbors out. Where does a 19 month old find all that energy?
The funny part was that she is not even interested in the candy, she was happy just knocking on doors and being seen by the neighborhood. My little socialite.
Meanwhile, I was terrorizing all of the trick or treaters that came to the door. Robely had gotten me a spook costume with glowing red eyes, and I had a staff with a mini skeleton on it.
Most of the kids were convinced, I was either a stuffed doll or some sort of an animatronic. I wouldn’t even have to say “boo” to scare the bejeezus out of them. Simply moving my staff or saying something was enough to knock them out of their sock. A lot of the parents were scared more than the kids.
Now comes the clean up and preparing for next year….
