All Hallow's Eve

Last night we experienced Halloween here in Laie, where we danced liked children of the night. The night before we had a ward party with games, costume contests, and more dancing. The kids had a costume parade at their school where Meg got to show off her HIgh School Musical cheerleader costume. The kids are off today and tomorrow. This begs the question, when do they do any learning?

There was a spooky laundry room here at Temple View Apartments, which had more than one kid in tears by the time they were through. Then it was off to plunder the faculty townhouses before hitting the climax of the night - Moana street. There were hundreds of people out trick-or-treating and admiring people's Halloween decorations. At one point Jake and I got caught in a rainstorm, and had to seek refuge at a nearby Luau. Somewhere in all that revelry Jake lost the muzzle of his Jengo Fet gun, and I lost our camera case. A small price to pay for the amount of candy collected (which Meg and Jake have promised to share with me.)

My comment was the same - I think Shane you forgot about hiding your new identity with all the revelry of Halloween.

You both forget the picture of me in front of the Tonga Club at World Food Fest.

I suggest you both start reviewing posts from the past. The 301NIB version of Trivial Pursuit releases right before Christmas.

For some reason you just really didn't 'jump'out of the picture at the Tonga Fest...I even reviewed it...just not as memorable. Maybe it was the interesting background...anyway enjoy the shave tomorrow.

Is there a better halloween song? I don't think so... How old were we when that song came out? It was pretty close to the time of the creation of the worlds greatest air band - FIRESTORM! good times...
