Celtfather Monthly: October/November 2022

WHOOPS! I forgot to update the link.
Click here for the December 2022 update.

What a great Halloween!

This one was a little bit different. The girls went Trick-or-Treating with the son of one of our friends. They walked all the way over to their grandpa's house, collecting candy along the way. Their Halloween buckets were overflowing.

Meanwhile, Gwen and I handed out candy with our friends. I played some Celtic Halloween songs in my Jaskier costume. We had a bloody tent set up. A cat yowled as Trick-or-Treaters approached the tent. Smoke drifted out of the tent. My friend Matt handed out candy as they walked in the curtain. Only one kid screamed in shock. LOL.

It was a welcome change now that the kids are growing up. Now it's time to go full on in with my Celtic Christmas Podcast plans. [insert evil Halloween laugh here] Mwahahaha!
