Here Isaac's participating in his school's Halloween parade, grades K-3. Afterwards, they go to their classrooms and proceed to get Pre Trick-Or-Treating Loot (PTOTL) at the classroom party. This serves the function of an appetizer at a restaurant. Enjoying the taste, but eager for more. Sugar, that is.
Starting out. About the only time the kids were all together.

I ain't afraid of no ghost! Actually, they were at least surprised. I was trying to get the kids' attention when suddenly the ghost starts rising up behind them, thus, this is the angle I got.
Hmmm...about three and a half pounds, give or take. Not bad for the first half hour--must keep moving though.
This was the point when Anna had reached Maximum Loot Toting Ability. Once the bag got too heavy for her, we started making our way back home.
Our good friends, the Harveys, who went trick-or-treating with the kids and me. (Though Isaac and Anna spent most of the night blazing the trail, with Aubra and Becca going at a more steady (reasonable) pace). Tom handed out candy in between doing school work.
Our church had a station set up for Trick-Or-Treaters. An outreach opportunity.
A very important part of Trick-or-Treating. The official candy tally.
A video of Isaac in action. For some reason, he preferred to say "Happy Halloween" instead of "Trick-or-Treat" as you'll see here. Everyone seemed to enjoy his enthusiasm. Candy was often greeted with a "Woo-Hoo!" instead of the more traditional "Thank You."
