Astronauts, Fairy Princesses, friends and family

It was our first Halloween at our home in Georgetown, so we decided to have our traditional open house with chili, sandwiches, refreshments. Rather than receive the 1,700 to 2,000 trick or treaters we were used to at our old home on East Capitol, we had a steady but not crazy line of people, and went through a good share of candy.

In short, it was incredibly civilized, fun, but we missed our old neighborhood a bit. Graham and Julia had a great time trick or treating, the 6 or so houses we went to wiped them out.

Friends stayed until late at night...and here are some pictures for all to enjoy. Andy, our dear Mame's fiance, and Astronaut Graham

Fairy Princess Julia "Don't close the sweater! No! You won't see my Butterfly Fairy!"

"I'm an ASTRONAUT."

Off to trick or treat

What? I can't eat all of the candy tonight? That's what YOU think!

Please, Sir, may I have some more?
