Halloween Visitor

My sister, Alyssa, came out here from Michigan to visit for Halloween. She came in extremely late on Wednesday night (October 28th) and left extremely early Monday (November 2nd). It feels like she was barely here at all, since she was only here for 4 full days and just little snippets of 2 others. I miss her a lot. We are good friends. She is about 2 1/2 years younger than me - she's 19.

On Thursday, we mostly hung out and watched our old childhood T.V. "scary" shows, which were "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" and "Goosebumps." We went out shopping for Halloween stuff and carved pumpkins. On Friday, the day before Halloween, we went to The Haunted Swamp, which is a haunted house that they do at the military base where I live (Port Hueneme.) On Saturday, we gave out candy to more than 100 kids who live in our neighborhood on base. Then we made a whole bunch of desserts and had a few friends over, and we played Apples to Apples. On Sunday, we went to Long Beach to the Queen Mary ship, where they had an event called "Shipwreck". They had 5 haunted houses. Jordan's brother, Daniel, who lives in Los Angeles, came with us as well. We had a good time. I was really sad when she had to leave.

Here are two pictures of Alyssa and me on Halloween:

  3. Glad you had a good Halloween and it's great your sister got to come out to visit. Your post made me homesick for my sisters! They are a goofy group and I love 'em!

    Hope your semester is going well.
