The election is one week from tomorrow!

Yesterday, we participated in the final parade of the campaign season, the Newark Halloween Parade. This one is the boys’ favorite, because all of the kids watching the parade are also dressed in costumes. For them, it’s almost like being on an amusement park ride. The boys were still sporting their firefighter uniforms, which at $50 a pop I am already lobbying for them to wear next Halloween as well. A few photos are on our Flickr page.

Zach and I also embarked on an interesting journey on Saturday afternoon—since it was raining out, we decided to visit every bowling alley from Dover north and greet the rainy day bowlers. We had to cut Dover off the list when Zach started to fall asleep in the car, and then we had to cut one more off when we realized that The Candidate had left the house without The Candidate’s Wallet. But all in all, it was a great trip—we met a ton of people, and as always Zach dazzled them.
