Halloween Again!

We have now had our second Halloween (like any of us need more chocolate)!  We stayed longer at this campground so that we could take part, and because this is an amazing campground and we really don't want to leave!!!  It has been voted the best RV Park in America three times!
We bought a few decorations for the outside of the trailer just to make it look festive, but they had a competition here and some of the campers went a little over the top! (Not that I would condone that sort of thing for a holiday like this!!!)  One site had two hearses, and a whole cemetery!
There was supposed to be a wagon ride, but it was too rainy and cold on Friday night so they cancelled it.  But there was a great pancake breakfast on Saturday, and costume party for the kids, and then three hours of trick or treating in the afternoon!  I bet we had at least 200 kids come to the trailer!  We had not bought anywhere near as much candy as we needed, so David had to drive down to the nearest mall to get some more.  We sat outside by the fire with our warm coffee and handed out candy while the kids went off to collect their goodies.  It was great!!  There was no snow and ice, the kids did not have to wear winter coats under their costumes, and we just sat in our lawn chairs and got to visit with everyone as they went by!
Sean's woopie cushion was a big hit.  He really enjoyed making farting noises to earn his candy!  Rianna was a disco dancer, so she was in fine form!  The dogs, of course, had little capes, all courtesy of Target!!!  We love Target!!!

They had a dance that night, too!

It was a really nice break from the hectic pace of travelling and adventuring!!

  1. OMG A Whoopie cushion. Never have I seen that. Too fun, you should have been a whole family of them! DId the costume come with farting sounds or were the real? Rianna looks cute and I'm disappointed to not see the adults all dressed for the festivites.

    Happy Haunting for the entire month of October - oh the joy!!
