[blparent] Halloween

[Veronica Smith]

How scarey, a gorilla.  I bet he is cute though.  Be sure to put some kind
of white on him, so the cars will be able to see him.  Or maybe some kind of
reflective tape.  I love  all the costumes.  This is better than asking the
kids at the door. V

    I liked hearing about the different costumes and traditions.  Our son is

going to be a guerilla.  His costume consists of a black shirt with a furry 
chest, big guerilla hand gloves, and a mask that goes completely over his 
head, with the mask part being in front and the furry part in the back.  He 
will also be wearing black pants and dark shoes and socks.  He is just 
elated that by the end of Halloween, he will have had four opportunities to 
wear his costume.
    One of our traditions is to buy a pumpkin for carving a jack o'lantern 
and roasting seeds.  Benjamin also goes to a Halloween thing at the library 
and has a party at school and his kids' activity at church on Friday nights.
    Since our part of town has very few houses and is always bustling with 
activity, the kids go trick-or-treating to all of the little stores.  I must

admit that this gives me greater peace of mind.
