Halloween on Orcas




Saturday was sunny and warm. Perfect for Trick or Treating. The kids were anxious to get going, so it was still light when the tricksters began to show up.


We were ready! Dressed as a cowboy (Ken added the neckerchief and put on a new white shirt) and a cowgirl. We were ready for the crowds! And crowds there were.

First to arrive was our little tribe. Caleb's cute face is hidden by Darth Vader's mask. For us this is one of the highlights of our year, our kids on Halloween.


Here is our youngest with her little Lula ready for a hula!


There were witches and fairies.
 
All carefully supervised by parents..or were they looking for their candy cut? Hey, that's Phil in the hat, he's our librarian!  We sold him his land. Wonder which of those characters is his?
 
  Drinking coffee to keep up with his kids, is our local surveyor, Greg White. With all the work we send him, he should be bringing us candy!


Clearly this one is a little devil! I think he's in Caleb's Cub Scout group.



This little fairy godmother blessed me with her wand.


See, we wern't the only ones longing to be a cowboy, or girl|!
 
The witches came and the witches went..


My outfit was sent to me by my dearest friend Cecily on Martha's Vineyard. It's made by Cattle Kate. Just so you know, in case you want one too.


This little devil told me her mom made her costume! I think she was really an angel.


Like a lot of Islander's this young man must be questioning authority!


We voted him 'Most Creative'!


Talk about a cute kitty!


After this very classy little witch, we called it a night.


The moon was up in the clear sky and as full as one would could ask for this Halloween night!
