Schools around here no longer do Halloween parades in costume. Is that universal? Instead, all the kids were told to wear jeans and plaid shirts to look like farmers/scarecrows and they had games outside and some special snacks for what they called a “harvest festival.” I love Halloween parades and seeing all the kids in costume. Too bad.

Yea, kind of sad about the lack of costume fun for kids these days. I really, really LOVE that last picture. That’s one to frame if you ask me!
Kelly,
I just read a bunch of your blogs and enjoyed getting “caught up.” I wanted to comment on this one. I also agree that it is OK to let the kids parade around in their Halloween costumes. I was so glad when Annie’s pre-school announced that they would be having a costume parade! (And best part is, she goes to a Christian pre-school!) It was so fun to see her and all the kids in their Halloween garb!
I loved your kids costumes – and appreciate all the time you spend blogging to keep us all up to date.
Love, Jess
