Halloween’s a big time here at Shore Fire, particularly for parents in the office. Who says there’s no good trick or treatin’ in NYC? You can get a load of costumes from year’s past here
The cold forced Matt’s kids Sally (on left) and Emma (on right) to bundle up this year, so you might have a hard time telling that Sally is a genie, and Emma is the goddess Athena. What’s not so hard to tell is that Matt agreed to Sally’s request that he dress as a “male nurse.”
Here’s another shot of Sally and Emma with their pals from down the street, Emmet (the Stormtrooper) and Louisa (also Athena!)
Rebecca Shapiro decided to venture into big kid territory this year — the haunted streets of Chelsea- with her 5-year-old daughter Roxy and 2-year-old son Simon. Roxy dressed as “Strawberry Shortcake” sans hot pink wig and a groggy just-woken-up-from-his-nap Simon as a little cow.
Uptown, on 138th St., the crowd of kids gets bigger and bigger every year in what’s become a cherished tradition; this year we couldn’t fit all the children on one stoop. In homemade costumes, that’s my son Eli, far left, as a cyborg, and Leo, far right, as “Duct Tape Man.”
Here’s Eli and Leo with our next door neighbors, Lenny and Rani.
