OK - we survived Halloween! Hallelujah. I just can't like Halloween. I try, for the sake of my kiddos, I try. You see, Halloween in Alaska is an EXPERIENCE. First, you must consider the weather (this year Mother Nature graced our little trick 'r treaters with GAIL FORCE WINDS - literally had to hold masks down or they would fly off). Then one must consider how they are going to convince their little tot that the ninja costume is every bit as fierce with layers upon layers of fleece long underwear bulging out of it. AND the topper - the "sprinkles on my cupcake" as my friend Shannon would say, is when this same little tot who's bursting at the seams in The Impenetrable Ninja Suite tells you, in the gail force winds, that they have to pee. Yay Halloween!
