Happy Halloween!
13 years old and this kid still wanted to go trick or treating! I love that he still wants to go out and get all dressed up and get some candy for free instead of just staying home doing nothing. He certainly misses Chelsea and how they would trade candy at the end of halloween night. He was a ghost and I love that he chose a simple costume. Cheap and easy to make and he was a cute one. He came home with a bag filled with candy and he was satisfied with what he got. He gets his braces off next Monday and he is counting the days until he can eat his gummy bears, skittles and popcorn balls! It was such a fun day and capturing moments in the city all dressed up is always fun. There are times when we wish we lived there and then we look at where we are and say, "the burbs aren't too bad" but nonetheless we always make our halloween adventures a fun time whether here or in the city. Maybe next year we will experience the trick or streets in New York! And just look at all the decor on these brownstone stoops! Absolutely amazing!

Procession Of The Ghouls!
Last Friday Noah and I saw the Procession of the Ghouls for the first time at the Cathedral church of Saint John the Divine and it was absolutely amazing. Every year the present a film before the big ending and this year they showed the German horror film, "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" which was accompanied by a live organ. The music was perfect. The film was long at first but then it became funny and interesting. Reminded me of the Chaplin movies I used to watch as a kid with my mom. I loved the ending when all the ghouls came out dancing and their costumes were so cool. My favorites were the dancing demons and the skeleton cellist. I love how they interact with the audience. I absolutely loved it and will definitely come next year and bring Jon. It's a halloween event I wish I would have started coming to years ago but am so glad we finally saw it! Captured a few blurry photos...
