Mike and I find great joy in Halloween. Back in the day, we would put much thought into what costumes we would wear on that one special night. Though we no longer hang out at the all-too-popular-and-sometimes-dangerous Halloween party in the Castro, we hang in our own ‘hood, which consists of older, married couples, younger couples with children, and gay and lesbian couples. Our evening agenda includes trick-or-treating for less than an hour, and spending the rest of the evening at home with a few friends as we hand out candy to witches, goblins, ninjas, princesses, and superheros.
Last week, we went to the Oakland Zoo’s Boo at the Zoo event where Christopher, who dressed in his blue, three-eyed, four-armed monster costume, walked around collecting stamps for a prize. Last weekend, we took my nephew David to the pumpkin patch. We plan to spend Halloween evening with Alec and his mommies, Randy and Katie and their daddy, my mom, and our nephew, David.
We plan to take many more pictures. In the meantime, enjoy these.
I love this kids so much and Matteojust keeps getting better looking every day…and of course Christopher is and always will be. I love you all, G-Dot.
They look like they had a great time! Awesome.
