You know as a child I didn't really like Halloween, it stressed me out, the pressure of finding the right costume. But as an adult I love Halloween! It was really fun seeing all of the kids come to the door with their bright eyes and excitement. I had a couple of funny ones. One little guy about three or four was wearing a red coat with shiny buttons, I couldn't figure out what he was, so I asked him and in a shy little voice he said "I'm a crocodile". His Mom laughed, and said actually he's an RCMP officer, who wishes he was a crocodile. Isn't that they way life is, you always want to be what you are not!
The other funny costume was an older boy in prison clothes and a sign on his chest that said "Former Enron CEO". A sad statment of the times but pretty darn funny.
Jack was very concerned about all of the strangers coming to the door, and when a boy in a werewolf costume appeared his bottom lip started quivering and he was pretty scared. Poor little munchkin. As you can see, we didn't dress him up, with no family here to show him off to we thought it would seem a little goofy to take our nine month old around for candy. Ahhh, but next year it will be different, no lazy Halloweens for the next decade!
