My favourite holiday of the year has finally arrived and with it a day filled with fun and laughter. (And yes, too much candy!)
My moment today surprised me. I actually managed to don two costumes today (one for work and one for our outing this evening), but it wasn't about either costume this year that brings me my moment of the day. (They were fun, but not awesome. Next year, I am going to go after awesome!) Honestly, I thought that the moment of the day would be the fact that I was sharing my favourite holiday with EQ which is another first for us. And as amazing as it was to share today with EQ, another moment knocked me over!
When we arrived at our pre-Church Street walk party, we were greeted by the host dressed up as a Prince. Fun. Expected. Then we entered the living room and found ourselves greeted by Comic Guy dressed up as our host for his Halloween costume? Completely unexpected and insanely hysterical!
Comic Guy was a perfect representation of our host. And it reminded me about the concept of imitation being the highest form of flattery. And so, I had to look up where that concept originated:
"Imitation is the highest form of flattery" coined by 19th century English cleric and writer, Charles Caleb ColtonThe light rain didn't dampen the experience as the group of us eventually made our way out to Church street to see many more forms of flattery. What an incredible evening with friends, my love and complete strangers, soaking in the fun energy of the holiday.
Moments of surprise.
Moments of raw laughter.
