Definitely not a Halloween to remember, unless you think a longlasting, storm-induced power outage causing most residents to abandon Halloween in favor of lights and heat, constitutes memorable.

Let’s just say that after two nights of being refugees in our own house, last night was not so fun. We woke up to a balmy 52 degrees in our home. The adventure and novelty have definitely worn off.

Despite the depressing state of All Hallow’s Eve festivities, the girls managed a pretty good candy haul. Especially since the residents who decided to brave the elements were more than happy to give out bunches of candy to the kids who didn’t let fallen tree branches get in their way of their trick-or-treating.
