Here are some pictures of the kids listening to Father Orsi before the parade. He started out his talk like this, "What is Halloween really all about?" One of the kids shouted out, "candy." Everyone laughed and he asked again-- this time to a Catholic child. and again the answer was "candy."
Oh well... I learned that Halloween has roots in a feast day commemorating saints and honoring deceased relatives. You can see religious costumes of some of the parents and kids who appreciate this part of the holiday. Michael and Jordan are sitting to the right of Father Orsi (Buzz Lightyear and Star trekie). Tessa is in the stroller next to Jordan.
There is a great group of families at the school and we love the activities we can take part in with them.

This picture turned out really goofy so I had to post it. Jared is the only one posing. Jordan insisted on sitting down in front and Michael was shielding his eyes from a car's headlights. There is a speck of the Halloween moon behind them.
We went to a neighbors Halloween party and then trick or treating old-school door-to-door style.
Yes, Michael somehow got into Star Trek --and thus their choice of costumes this year. Thanks Grandma!
