Halloween & rollerskating (or "We like to dress up")

Much of the unit dressed up for Halloween festivities. We handed out some candy before heading to town for trick-or-treating at the businesses (for the little kids) and then for the parade (yes, another).

Then on Saturday that week, Allison planned an 80's themed rollerskating night. Thanks to the thrift store, we donned our tacky duds and went to Skateland in nearby Buckhannon. It was not a themed night at the skating rink and there were a lot more people there than we expected, so we stood out, a lot! Mike hurt his ankle mountain biking with Ben earlier in the day, so he wasn't able to skate. But the rest of us had a lot of fun!

Allison was about 4 people away from winning the limbo, and much to her credit she was by far the tallest person left in the contest! And Ben, Ian and Ella got to experience their first chicken dance!

On another note, Ben decided to resurrect the Foosball table that has been sitting in our cellar for who knows how many years. It needed some major cleaning and bleaching since it's very damp down there, but he and Mike brought it up, cleaned it and it is now operational. This is a picture from the first game, Ian and Mike versus Ella and Ben!
