We were told that there were not a lot of trick or treaters in our neighborhood because of all the community activities, so we decided we would go out on the town. Our first stop was going to be church, but due to bad weather (high winds no rain until later), they cancelled their fall festival, so we headed over to downtown Cleveland. Every year Cleveland holds a block party. It's apparently a big deal. Last year, 20,000 people were in attendance. We got there at 5pm and went to what is known as Treat Street. It's a neighborhood in the historic district that is closed off to thru traffic.
My little wolf. I have to brag on my face painting skills for a second. It was my first time, and it turned out pretty good in my opinion.
This house was Monster University. So cute. I imagine that when it got dark, they showed the movie too.
We found another photo opportunity. This time with Mr Brown and Mr Orange. Damien's boss lives on Treat Street. Mars also sponsors and provides the candy for the block party downtown.
Right after leaving the M&Ms, we ran into some friends from church and soccer. Dylan was happy to have a friend with him.
This house was the only house that was creepy. They had guys in masks and chainsaws. I was surprised when Dylan ran up to the house. We had walked by it earlier without his friend and he wanted nothing to do with it, then all of a sudden, he's Mr Brave. Boys.
The houses did a great job of getting into the spirit and fun of Halloween. When you think of a movie and trick or treating, this is what you think of. It was right out of a movie. I absolutely feel in love with the experience.
We didn't stay very long as we knew it got crazy downtown. Next we headed over to Damien's co worker's house. His co worker pulls the kids on a flat bed and takes them trick or treating. The weather was perfect and Dylan had a blast.
