All Treats (No Tricks)

Halloween fell in the middle of the week this year, so John had to work. I hurried to scoop Oscar up from his school, helped him get his costume on, and we were off! First stop: the West Philadelphia Tot Parade.

We missed most of the "parade" (a trail of kids in costumes tumbling down the sidewalk), but did meet up with a few other animal friends.

Then there were treats!

 The bear and zebra consider their candy.

Finally, the zebra gets a taste!

Then it was out to Bala Cynwyd to visit dear friends, Art and Peggy, and do a bit more trick-or-treating in their beautiful neighborhood. After only a few houses, the zebra looked in his treat bag and announced, "I have all the candy I need." Can't argue with that.

Back at Peggy and Art's, we cozied up for a bit to watch "The Great Pumpkin". I couldn't tell if Oscar was mesmerized by it or just really tired--such a fine line.

After a fun-filled evening, Oscar fell asleep in the car on the way home. He managed to wake enough to walk into the house, lay his head on the chair, and fall fast asleep again.
