Halloween 2008

If it was up to Will, Halloween would never end.  He's been talking about Halloween for the past 11 months and he's already making plans for next year.  I took nearly one hundred pictures of this year's festivities, but not one comes close to capturing his joy and excitement.  
The holiday began on Thursday, with an official 'Pajama Day'.  We spent the day in our pajamas; resting, relaxing and watching plenty of television.  That afternoon, we headed over to Aunt Tammy's (in Toms River) for Trick-or-Treating and an afterparty.  On Friday, we attended a Halloween parade and party at Will's school.  Afterwards, we visited Grandma and Grandpa.  Finally, that evening, we met up with Aunt Areti and Armando for more Trick-or-Treating and dinner.  Come Saturday morning, we all had a serious Halloween Hangover... too much candy and not enough rest.  It was a great 2 days-- and now, nearly three days later, we're recovered.  The Halloween decorations are put away, the candy is under lock and key and the costumes are hanging in the back of the closet.  As we walked to school today, Will looked up at me and asked,  "What's next, mom?"
