This year Sam went as a black cat and Zach wore His Templar Knight costume he made for his Midevel HIstory class. The kids first stop was Aunt Kiki's door, then it was off to Subway for supper before heading to the Athletic Club for our churches "Autumn Festival". There the kids can play games for candy, see their friends, and have a Bible story time. We love going there every year because it beats walking outside in the cold and asking strangers for candy. Funny that we teach or kids not to do that, then encourage in on Halloween.
When we arrived we found that Sam and her girlfriend Isabelle were both dressed as black cats.Zach spent most of his night with his Friend Mathew. While the kids played games Matt and I either followed the kids around or hung out with Mathew's dad, Gaylord. Since we are the only people who sign we kinda stick together. Gaylord is one funny guy. He always has a funny story to tell or a joke and he never passes up a moment to tease.
The night ended with a bag full of candy and the kids excitedly talking about what costume they will make for next year. Yes I said "make." We got a sewing machine so we are going to attempt to sew our own costumes for next year. Will update on the process of that next year.
