our weather has done the usual Missouri thing ... going from snow to sunny 70's. Something we all like.
Friday would have been our son's 52nd birthday....
We ... husband and daughters and I ... had plans for a get together. But my younger daughter had been to a family funeral ( husband's family - super spreader with no masks etc !) and was quarantining herself and her family. So we changed our plans . We will get together at another time.
So far two of husband's family have tested positive...
We spent our evening talking and decorating Halloween cookies..... which was fun and delicious!
Halloween was fun... we took out a table from our deck... made a sign saying "trick or treat ... help yourself". We had no idea how many kids would come or even if any would come. For years our neighborhood had no kids and hence no trick or treaters. But houses are being sold and younger families are moving in.
We ran out of candy!!! Had to turn off our lights and close down!! Lots and lots of little kids all wearing costumes with parents in the street watching!
The kids were safe... outside ... no close contact with adults giving out candy !! And they had a fun time !! And with Missouri weather being warm again.... it was great!! This pair of 75 plus people had fun too!!

Wow! That's amazing! We did not have any kids walking around our neighborhood here in Hawaii. I know kids wore costumes and had small events here and there, closely monitored, but everyone was warned not to trick or treat.
Ouch about the super spreader funeral. That just adds to the misery. I think funeral are limited to 10 people here in Hawaii. The rules change every so often depending on the case counts.
How nice you had trick or treaters. It's been years since I've seen children out in costumes.
