Ever since Halloween costumes ceased to be cute and fun and became gross and gorey, we've turned off our lights and stayed in the basement. This year, however, we came up with a game plan.
There are only eight children in the neighborhood that we really know well. Anytime they were outside and we were walking Annie, Annie got some love. So this morning, Micah baked Halloweenish cupcakes:
First stop: Rosie's house. Her girls were so excited! Rosie got one, too.
Next stop: Kayla's house. Her mom was babysitting and she was excited! We left her a cupcake along with one for everyone in the family.
Third stop: Jodi's house. No one home.
Fourth stop: Jill's house. Her kids are definitely too old for trick or treating, but when your dad is battling Stage 4 cancer and has been in Rochester all week, you need a treat! They loved them!
Fifth stop: Deb's house. We had three cupcakes left, so Micah's oldest-brother-by-another-mother (also known as Matt's best friend!) and his family each got a cup cake.
I was positive the joy was in the giving until I got this picture back:
