The kids. They will bug each other, bicker, annoy, and fight constantly when they’re stuck too close to each other.

Except.

When it’s time to go GET CANDY.

And I can’t really blame them! ‘Tis the season, and as the one that encourages all this behaviour, there’s been: Corn Mazes! Haunted houses! Screaming fights in the Halloween stores/sections of stores! And of course, early trunk or treating.

This year, we have Shiny Ghostface from the increasingly ubiquitous and ironically capitalistic Scream movies, and similarly a pair of sharks. Baby and Teenaged.

It’s gotten super windy lately and traditionally down to freezing at nights, but thankfully that hasn’t stopped us or the real goal: Filling our minds with spooky vibes and buckets with treats.

Next week: The Zoo, Pumpkins, Drive-in movies, and of course, The Actual Day.

Song: Andrew Gold – Spooky Scary Skeletons
