It seemed this the zombie thing was in this year for Halloween. Both girls (and a few friends) wanted to get ghoulish for Trick or Treat night! Amara was a creepy dolly and Havana was a zombie dentist! With almost no help from Don and I (well Don did drive them across the county to look for outfits to no avail), the girls pulled off a creative and creepy Halloween.
This year, unfortunately, we did not go to a pumpkin patch. It was the first time in 12 years. This saddened my heart. I love Fall and pumpkins. With my being gone in New York, then our trip to Florida, there was not enough time. At least I was lucky to be in New York with the glorious changing of the leaves and Don brought home several pumpkins to carve. Still I was bummed. Then the night before Halloween, while helping our friends Alex and Aniyah to move, their neighbor gave us two homegrown pumpkins. That lifted our spirits. The Creator provides, even with the most mundane of details!
We returned to the Sycamore by the Bay community to get our sugar loot. This was the girls first Halloween stomping grounds. We went for years before changing up. They don't remember but enjoyed the close housing on flat streets. Along with a couple of friends, they hooked up enough candy to rot a few teeth! The decorations were great and the night felt more like summer. Halloween 2019 turned out to be a great success.
