It was a cold Thursday Halloween night in 2024. Grayson brought up a memory of several years ago, when it was still quite warm and he set up the projector with "The Great Pumpkin" playing as he handed out candy. That was before he got "scrooge-y" (so he says, although that's a Christmas, not a Halloween reference).
I'd bought some candy and had it prepped and ready ... and Coop and I snuck some of our favorites in the days preceding the holiday. We didn't get our first visitor until fairly late, after 7:00, but then we got quite a few groups. I was on door duty this year.
My Zumba class had a couple of seasonal songs; Skeleton Sam, and of course, Thriller. I remember the Terra Linda 6th graders performing it, so I have video of both Cooper and Colton doing the dance back in the day. Similar steps in each, based on the original music video. 99% of the time I'm just in my traditional gray/black at Zumba, but I sported an orange Halloween t-shirt this year. I snagged the picture of a cute little red riding hood and a scary wolf from K8's Instagram. Landon and others at LKL dressed up at work (more Landon pictures below). Gray had his usual "Pal"oween with his work buddies (the Friday before). He's Deadpool. I didn't get a Halloween post up for a few years, but in 2022 ... he was the danger (from Breaking Bad).
I wasn't super familiar with Landon's character costume, but he sure looked cute!
Loved the freckles!
Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable ... Disney series.
Landon said they made some of the traditional sugar cookies shaped like pumpkins and decorated with candy corn. We didn't get around to making them at the West Jordan Blackham abode. Fingers crossed there will turkey cookies come Thanksgiving though!
