Trick and Treat

So last night as I opened the door for trick or treaters, I opened the door to see a cute little boy standing there, my immediate thought was "I know this little boy."  It took about a second to realize that he looked exactly like our nephew Talon.  Since he and his parents recently moved to the north end of the valley, it was possible that it could have been him, so I looked around to see if I could see his parents.  Off to one side was another group of trick or treaters, including some parents but they didn't look familiar, so baffled (and starting to think our nephew had a doppleganger) I gave the very friendly little boy his candy, and dealt with the next group.

I looked around again, didn't see anything and finally shut the door.  I turned around to Tracy and said, "You should have seen that little boy, he looked just like Talon!"  I can't remember if it was more trick or treaters but something made me open the door again.  And this time I heard familiar laughter.  To my relief, I was not in fact crazy.  The little boy was Talon, and we had a great quick visit with Chris and Stacia.   That's my kind of Halloween prank.
