Halloween at Fish Lake Beach

Fish Lake Beach, for those who don't know, always does "Halloween" in September because the real Halloween is after shut-down. I always loved having double candy every year, but now I love it for a different reason.

It's usually cold and misty and nasty on Oct. 31, but this gives the girls a chance to dress up without all the layers. Cinderella and my NIU Cheerleader had a great time.

Holly didn't care so much about candy, but when we passed the park she said, "swing?"

Holly was a little mischievous, so Mommy and Daddy took turns keeping her up high and out of trouble. She was still a little rambunctious, dancing around on Daddy's shoulders.

Ella had more fun handing out candy to all the kids than walking around collecting it I think.

Here's Holly investigating and enjoying her first dum-dum.
