We had a fantastic Halloween this year that seemed to last about a week and a half!
We started things off by visiting Gallagher's Farm a couple of weeks prior to pick out pumpkins. Will strolled around the farm and then finally settled in amongst the choices to contemplate life and sip some water.
The Friday before Halloween we ventured downtown for the Traverse City Downtown Halloween Walk, though it was mis-named as it should have been more appropriately titled "Downtown Halloween Kids and Kaos" (you liked that play on the letter "K," didn't you). Seriously, it was insane. Wall-to-wall spidermen, princesses, parents, and all manner of ghouls in between. But Will loved it and that is really all that matters. Though it won't matter much next year because I am never doing that again.
We headed out to Frankfort for our annual trek to see Pumpkin Ed's crazy creations the night before Halloween (aka Devil's Night). Though he didn't have quite as many carved this year, there were still some rather ridiculously large pumpkins.
And then the big night! Will was very excited to gear up and head out, collect his bounty, and then more or less categorize and play with his treasures upon returning. My mom sent us a little "care" package containing popcorn, which he eagerly munched while separating his twizzlers from his bubble gum. Oh the irony.
