Scare-A-Van

Every year, about a week before Halloween, the base puts on a fun Halloween event.

This year they created a new event called "Scare-A-Van," where we drove in our cars to 16 various (and decorated) locations around the base to collect candy.

(These events are always so thoughtful and the kids really enjoy them, but why, why, WHY do we need to collect Halloween candy a week before Halloween?!)

Sydney opted not to go (she stayed in our neighborhood to play outside with her friend). When we got home I asked what they did, and she answered, "We pretended like a lemon was a ball and tossed it back and forth to each other."

Well.

Lorelei, Ford, and Ruthie all agreed that it was MUCH more fun than they were envisioning. I think us allowing them to eat candy in the car helped them come to that conclusion.


Happy Sunday! I do NOT feel prepared to start the school/work week tomorrow, but we shall press on.
