Downtown

This year we went trick-or-treating downtown with the boys' friends from school. While we had a good time with friends, and being outside on a beautiful day, the actual trick-or-treating there was highly over-rated in my opinion. I don't think we'll do it again. Most shops didn't really want you there, it seemed, and they were giving out lame treats like tootsie rolls too.

BUT we went to see a short play at the Unicorn Theater afterwards, which was so cute. It featured short excerpts from Shakespeare's scariest scenes. My boys can be heard chanting, "Boil, bubble, toil and trouble," now and again. They liked it.
