Halloween (2020)
Written by
The pandemic has thrown off a lot of the usual ways holidays were celebrated. Halloween is no exception. A day when children would walk door to door asking for candy has no place in these strange times.
We did what we could to make Halloween enjoyable for you. You trick-or-treated inside the house, visiting various rooms, and asked for candy. We had a couple of costume changes for you (dragon and magician).
Once you were done with that, we staged a candy hunt in the basement, sort of like an Easter egg hunt. Once the hunt was complete, we went into the backyard and had a firepit.
The next morning, you laid out all of your candy and made mom and me pretend to trick-or-treat.
One of my favorite moments is when you show up at “mom’s house” as the magician and say “abracadabra”.
