Halloween has come and gone, but the pictures live on in social media posts like the ones we’ve gathered. Aggies of all ages dressed up and decorated, and celebrated safely with friends. Dogs and even horses got in on the action. Plus, we know of a place where you can still go trick-or-treating (costumes required).
