First Halloween Party

Some people are against Halloween and will have no part of it. Generally they say it's because its it's Pagan origins. Personally, I've always liked Halloween and my parents loved passing out treats.

In most communities including ours, it's an opportunity to meet and chat with neighbours. On that evening eveyone is a kid again. And despite the usual evening rush hour traffic to get home it's really a neat thing if you think about it. People are trying to get home early to do all that fun stuff either for their own kids or someone elses'.

On Saturday night we went to Shaindy and Seth's across the street. They always have a big goolish bash. The kids party started at 6pm, adults after 9pm. As you can see Aidan was a pirate this year. Looks pretty cool eh?

He was a little aprehensive at first with all strangers around, probably more so that night because no one looked normal. After some time passed he was running around like he owned the place. He made alot of friends, but two in particular worth special mention. First, Shaindy's brother was dressed as Pooh Bear, Adian really liked him. And second Andrew who is Mike and Penny's son. Andrew didn't let Aidan wander too close to the stairs and he also made sure Aidan had lots to eat and drink. Andew mixed up some Apple juice in a shot glass and fed it to Aidan, so cute.

Adian is so dashing as a pirate. My word he has grown. And walking so easily. Its only three weeks since we saw him, but he looks 6 months more advanced. Next year he will be riding his bike with his dad.
