"Wizard of Oz People"

Last night we took to the streets as the "Wizard of Oz people", so aptly named by our trick-or-treating comrades. Our friends invited us to their neighborhood where were 3 in a sea of goblins, ghouls, and an excess of miniature Spidermen. To say it was a popular Halloween destination would be a huge understatement.
Since we were late getting home yesterday we almost ditched our costumes. I had gone to all the trouble of making my frock, though, so we got ourselves dressed up as planned. Besides, what else was I going to do with thrifted shiny red shoes?
We had a lot of fans as we went door to door. The occupants of the house below called us back to their door so they could take another look at our costumes. 
After trick-or-treating to a handful of houses, we rejoined our friends on their porch. Clark parked himself in front of the candy bowl and began passing out candy to the costumed kids. It was the cutest thing ever and the kids loved him.
Even though Clark can't eat his candy I think he had a great time giving it to others and being part of the mayhem that was Halloween. Thanks Jason & Rachael for inviting us!
