My neighborhood isn't stratigically beneficial to trick or treaters looking for a large take, as there are only about 8 houses on my street. If I was going out, I'd skip my neighborhood too in favor of some closer together. So now I don't do anything for Halloween as I don't see the point. :wink:
Instead I just sit here now thinking of what I was doing last year and the year before. Yeah, time to get out of the head... :(

pretty slow year for us so far. We usually go through at least 8 bags of candy, last year was 10. We bought 10 this year and I bet we haven't even given out one yet.....2 candies per kid.

Our street is long and dark, not many street lights. The houses don't have much lighting....so our house is all lit up, I have a blow up pumpkin, scarecrows, bones, scarey music and candles down by the mailbox. (so they can see, that our house has treats!)
Just had a batman :D
(so far I'm taller than all the trick or treaters, my daughter and I are giving them handfulls of candy :D )

not too worry, the next few kids are getting a butt load of candy. We just wanted to make sure we weren't going to run out again.
And btw, we don't just buy those little bite sized candies :hammerhea

I think Halloween was invented by "mothers"
it gives them a chance to go talk to all the other mothers and get free chocolate for doing it :D
yea like you all haven't "FILTERED" the kids bag for the good stuff :D

just thought of something....if we run out of candy this year, I'm gonna start handing out all the extra Rex Marine stickers I have and then move on to the few Impy's key chains too :)

I have had about 150 kids, 15 adults, 2 Rattle snakes and a pair of dogs show up at the house. And my Daughter was the prittiest so far !!!!
And about 5 bags and yes I am stingy.
The ones that just hold there bag out get 1
The ones that say Trick or Treat get 3
And if they are real cute and say Trick or Treat they get a handfull

Jeannie was with him (I dream of Jeannie):D
New costume this year (new to me)
DIVA, a little girl all dressed up :D

I guess the kids here are done, I haven't had any kids come to the door in about 20 min now. I guess I get the rest of the candy! :p There were some really cute kids this year! And sooo polite~ I was shocked :D
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE

We have gone through 6 bags so far. We only have 2 left. I think I am going to hand out M&M's, one M&M at a time. :D
On a side note, Jen said the first group was a guy around the corner from us that asked if we sold our boat yet. He said to Jen, "Phat Matt's your boyfriend right?" I have a lurker living by me.
Sign up Dude! Jen said he was getting an Advantage. :)

Trick or Treat!!
I want a REX MARINE sticker! :D
We had a bunch of kids, I'm almost out of candy......really cute little girls, a couple of teenage girls dressed up as Captain and Tennile (sp) I know the older kids bug some of you, but I trick or treated until I was 17, so I don't mind......(and I'm not a small woman so I probably looked 20) :rollside:
I was surprised, a bunch of kids said thank you!
Blondie , our pup, loved going to the door on her leash. :D We put a tag on her and her costume was a Beanie Baby(we found this really big Beanie Baby tag)
This is the first halloween our kids didn't dress up and go out.. :frown: ..My son and his friends hide in the bushes and scare the "older" trick or treaters.
Oh, this one kid came to the door dressed as that bald dancing guy from the Magic Mountain commercial.
:D Happy Halloween Everyone! :D

I can wiggle my ears :idea:
:D

Cas
11-01-2005, 08:45 PM
no cartwheels or putting your foot behind your head? Oh well, since we're all getting wiser in our older age, I guess wiggling your ears will do.
I'll send it out tomorrow :mix:

Cas
11-01-2005, 08:46 PM
oops, no idea where I'm sending it but I'll send it just the same :D

:clover: That's the spirit :clover:
I can dig a trench in our kitchen with a jackhammer, I can operate a Ditch Witch, I can turn any fraction into 1/2 (ok, maybe thats not a good trick), I can cook dinner for 45 plus people, that's all I can think of now..........should I PM you my address?:D

There's alot of truth to that....My wife was on a recruiting mission tonight with all the neighbor ladies trying to organize a new neighborhood "bunko" group...little did she realized by not escorting my daughter tonight I didn't get to show all the neighbor MILF's my birthday suit :D :D :D

More than usual amount of kids this year :D ...maybe the good weather played a part........even now my dogs are barking at kids roaming around out there. :squiggle:

Cas
11-01-2005, 09:37 PM
well, we ran out of candy and started handing out Capri Suns :D
Deb,
Sure, I'll send you a couple of them! Include your shirt size (hopefully it's a medium) and I'll see about sending you another surprise and no, it's nothing risque.
