I guess I have a lot to catch up on. I received a promotion at work last month and with my increased workload I haven't had much time to do things like keeping up with this blog. I know all four of our readers are probably anxiously awaiting Halloween photos though, so I figured I'd get those up here!

 I actually didn't take any photos the night of Halloween. I still haven't mastered low light photography (my challenge for this month), so I knew the shots wouldn't be great. I had taken a bunch of the kids with their costumes on at Haunted Hallways, a fun event in downtown Rochester that is organized by the public school district. It is a great chance for the kids to trick-or-treat at some downtown businesses and they have three levels of haunted houses as well. Benjamin opted for the Hall of Haunts (medium scare factor) and bravely faced all of its horrors with Mike. He really enjoyed it. Lucy and I enjoyed our last temperate fall evening with a stroll around some of the buildings. We finished the night off with some frozen yogurt from Carroll's Cup (my favorite frozen treat place in town). Benjamin wanted to be something scary this year and he decided on the Headless Horseman. We found this awesome costume from Amazon and he loved it. Everywhere we went he was complimented on it. He sure thought he was awesome. Miss Lucy was Raggedy Ann. Make that - the cutest Raggedy Ann ever!
