Candy Day

Trick or treating is not part of our normal family tradition, but when Anna and Isaiah received an invitation to join friends for trick or treating, we decided to let them go. I went along and enjoyed the walk and catching up with my friend too. 

Anna wore Aliza’s Moana dance costume and Isaiah had this Wolverine costume. He didn’t want to wear the mask. 

I took pictures of some of the social distancing precautions people took. Many people had tables set up at the end of the driveway with either individuallly bagged candy or candy spread out on the table so children would only need to touch the piece they were taking. 

One person had enter and exit arrows drawn on the driveway. 

The most creative were the decorated pipes to slide candy down into the kids buckets. 

I also liked the slide idea too. This person was especially thorough—she wore gloves. 

One sweet lady was asking the children to do a trick for candy. Isaiah hung back until the other 3 in our group had done their trick and then he said that he needed to do his trick in the grass. He went over to the grass and did a flip! He landed on his back and succeeded in scaring both me and the lady. He got 2 pieces of candy. 

We watched the full moon rise. It was so bright and beautiful on a clear evening. 

Anna and Isaiah both brought home an almost literal ton of candy. 

When we got home we watched Dolittle and ate candy. It was a fun day with some fun memories made.
