Halloween

Theresa packed a pair of wings and antennae inside Kayla’s bag on Wednesday morning. She also dressed her seven-year-old daughter in two layers of pink clothing. This was all a part of the Halloween costume that Kayla would be wearing during the elementary school’s parade down Main Street. Josh was going to dress up as a cat for Halloween, but wouldn’t be celebrating the holiday until that night. Jon was already planning on attending the parade. This would be among the last times he would be able to take advantage of his unemployment before starting work with the Partnership for Learning on the following Wednesday. He had taken days off before to attend the Halloween parade, and could again, but of course a decision like that became far more difficult once someone had the responsibility of a job.
That night, Jon and Theresa took their kids trick-or-treating around the Village of Shepherd.
