Happy Halloween!

We had the cutest groups of trick-or-treaters come to our door! I kept laughing because I realized the candy I bought had a strange proportion of Whoppers and the older kids would cherry pick the Reese's and KitKats, so soon Whoppers were all that was left (and a few Tootsie pops). Haaa. Malted milk balls, anyone?

When I cut my hair and dyed it strawberry blonde in August, I realized I essentially had Nancy Drew's hair, minus the 60s styling. I read so very many Nancy Drew books growing up and always loved mysteries so I dressed up as River Heights' favorite sleuth.
One of our friends, Tom, dressed up as Christopher Robin—one of my favorite costumes of the night. As we were both literary characters, we needed a photo in tandem.

Age and her new bf. Adrienne dressed up as Ira Glass. She nailed it and her accompanying voice recording ("Stay with us!") was excellent.

investigative & documentary reporting at its finest...


And because Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, I wanted to share other favorite costumes:
Two of the servers at Communal dressed up as Frida Kahlo & Andy Warhol, which I LOVED. I sent this photo to my family and then found out my sister went as Frida for her art history Halloween party!

Emily & Lauren as Moaning Myrtle & Dolores Umbridge for a Harry Potter Halloween party! SO great.

I hope your Halloween was happy!
