Halloween always brings stress to me since I have become an "adult". You have to decide early what you are going to do, or where you are going to be, because there is so much to plan for. Even the "Quick DIY articles" for Halloween costumes are insanely not easy and if they are, normally not much fun. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it is what goes thru my head. In the past couple of years, we have not done anything too exciting or even dressed up for Halloween. This year though, was going to be different!
Before we headed on our way, we had to make sure Juco was in the Halloween spirit. By we I mean me! I dressed her up in a cape that we had won from some carnival last year. I took multiple pictures, but not many she wasn't moving and blurry. My parents also were in the Halloween mood and made sure she was included. By they I am assuming my mother. Ha Ha. She sent an Edible Greeting Card, and though Juco was hesitant that we were letting her chew up something at first, it ended up being finished, rather quickly..it must have been good!
We were invited to take in a Jets/Raiders football game the Sunday after Halloween. Some friends of our, Kas and Adam were going for Adam's birthday and asked if we would like to join. He is from New York and a Jets fan, so they try to make a game every year. It was so nice of them to invite us, and we had a great time!
We started the weekend in San Francisco, going to Union Square and enjoying the costumes all around us. Sometimes it was hard to tell if they were costumes or just their every day outfit. We held off till literally the last second, making sure we were able to go and no recruits were coming into town. As guys, they aren't concerned and feel that you can just throw something together at the last second, or do not care if you are dressed up at all. Not my plan though! I was NOT going to be in San Francisco and NOT have a costume on. So what did we decide...Where's Waldo and Wenda! Yes, Wenda is a real person in the books, apparently, she is not in the books here in California because no one knew she existed. We had a so much fun sneaking in people's pictures and trying to be discreet, some worked great, some we need to work on.
After a great weekend, it was fun to get back home. We got to watch the Royals game and watch them win a World Series! Although, we may not be in Kansas anymore, the cheering and support is still there!
