We love Halloween here.
We decorate and we give out little plushies instead of candy.
We only had 40 people stop by this year.
We're a little bummed.
Trunk-O-Ween events are killing trick-or-treating.
But we stay open late, just in case the kids wanna go out after they get home from the strip-mall.
However, there's just 365 days until Halloween...
My brother's here, so for the first time ever, I stocked up on candy for trick-or-treaters. Not a one came by. To be fair, it was a cold, raw, wet night and there was some sort of carnival going on down at the local library's parking lot, but still...
ReplyDeleteWe had massive crowds for Halloween. One street was even blocked off for the crowds watching the pirate ship fight the fort across the street. There also was a DJ booth in a cul de sac. For some reason everyone cut loose this year with some over the top houses and so much traffic people ran out of candy.
ReplyDeleteGrandsons made their rounds. On the way home they went back to a house visited earlier. They told the lady they didn't want any more candy, they just wanted to know if they could pet her dogs again. Her response was awesome. "Sure. Gimme your candy bags." While the little guys were petting her dogs she divided her supply among them and said "It's all yours. I'm done."
