Halloween is very important to our three boys. Callahan will be a large, black, scary demon with widespread wings and a hideous red mask. He’ll look awesome.

Jake will be Mario of the Mario Brothers. He’s going to look great. He has the overalls, the red hat with a big white M on it, the mustache, and Mario’s white gloves. He tried to get Zane to be Luigi, Mario’s brother, but Zane insisted on his first choice.

God Knows, how he came up with it, but Zane has decided that he will be Freddy Krueger – the youngest Freddy Krueger I know of. Maybe Freddy as a five year old. Zane even magicked a great Freddy Krueger costume from a family friend, complete with Freddy’s metal-clawed brown leather glove. He’ll be styling. They all will.

Halloween is important to them for another reason. They like candy. Usually we get enough from trick or treating to last the entire year, from one Halloween to the next. This year we ran out a month ago. Terrible tragedy! We all suffered,

To remedy this misfortune, we are going onto the Boulder mall this year, Ideal Market and the various stores around it, as well as the various King Supers. And, of course, we will cruise the neighborhood for our final candy collection.

We also want to show off their costumes and scare lots of folks.

A late bulletin, just in – Zane is now considering being a ghost pirate. He does look great in his pirate hat. Maybe he will be both, depending on the venue.
