Halloween Parade

Yesterday was such a fun halloween parade at my kids school here in California. and I couldn’t help thinking of all the little kids on the East Coast that would have been sad to miss a great day of trick or treating. I know there are far worse losses than an evening of scares, costumes and candy, but Halloween is just so exciting for kids.

This is an Elementary School Parade. No weapons, no super-gory stuff. There were the usual suspects: witches, fairies, superheroes and aliens. This year I spotted a lot of costumes that looked like pixel-drawings. Maybe there’s trend I don’t know about? And loads of zombies. Some Star Trek costumes. And what looked like a grumpy pumpkin but turned out to be ‘Annoying Orange’. Ever heard of him?
