Trick or Treaters

HALLOWEEN 2010

Kt always leads her riding students in full costume, bareback, around Tom's neighborhood to trick or treat. We had candy and carrots ready this year.

And then, the little trick-or-treaters at the library made out like bandits--or like Spiderman--at the end of storytime, too. Chuck Schoettler, aka The Dungeon Master, regaled us with "'Twas the Night before Halloween," and we both fed the kids' sugar obsession. My dead skunk was on hand, too.

And then, last but far from least, came Paige and her buddies from Bethany. We had some good laughs.

Halloweeny stuff

Freya came to school with me on Friday. She went as Sirius Black. The sign around her neck reads: "Have you seen this Wizard?"

THEN, Saturday morning, I read Halloween stories at the Blue Earth County Library story time. Lots of kids--I bet 60--came and listened--raptly, actually--while I read. Then the Dungeon master, aka Chuck Schoettler, recited his "Twas the Night before Halloween" poem to the kids' delight.
