The Not-So-Scary Monster

November 1st, 2009 by joel

Avi’s first Halloween was a great time in Noe Valley, with many dozens of Trick-Or-Treaters cleaning us out of our four large bags of candy. We sat outside on the steps with our neighbors for most of the night, welcoming young and old and enjoying all of the costumes and entertainment. Our next door neighbor even performed a fire eating and fire juggling show!

Earlier in the day, Grammy and Zayda sent us a fun Halloween package with a dancing bear (which was a hit all night), candy, and other cool Halloween treats. Then, Aunt Debbie came over, dressed as an 80’s tennis star, and we headed down to 24th street, which was packed with families as all of the shops were handing out candy–City trick-or-treat style. There, we saw our pal Henry, looking like a true hero in his Superman costume, before heading back to our house. For Avi’s first Halloween, he insisted on getting dressed up as a not-so-scary moster: Wally, the Green Monster, the mascot of the Boston Red Sox. Mom and Dad played supporting roles as Fenway candy vendors…

Finally, after the night was over and the little ones were in bed, 22nd St rocked out to Rock Band, complete with wigs, until the wee hours of the morning. We hope everyone else had as much fun as we did! Happy Halloween!

Oh, of course, (especially since it was Avi’s 9 month birthday!), we added both pictures and some videos to the Photo Gallery!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!
