Impromptu Halloween

Halloween was the day after the wedding and we knew we'd be in LA for it but, other than packing simple costumes for the boys, didn't have any specific plans. At one point one of us made the mistake of mentioning trick-or-treating, which LT overheard and was completely distraught at the thought of not getting to go trick-or-treating.

So we decided to improvise...

The boys were excited as we got ready in our hotel room.

We took our rented minivan to a residential neighborhood near the hotel (not far from Beverly Hills). Kari's parents dropped us off on a random corner that looked nice and drove around for a while while we went trick-or-treating. We only went for about two blocks but it was easily the most fun I've had on Halloween since I was a little kid. I'm pretty sure I wasn't the only one that enjoyed it.

Adler's (pictured above as Charlie Brown) walking skills continued to improve throughout the trip and he was still a little unstable - we started calling him the drunken sailor for how he'd kind of wabble and stumble down the street.
