Trick or treaters...

Yesterday was our town's trick or treating. It brought back some wonderful memories of making Halloween costumes for my girls, organizing neighborhood parties, and bonfires. So, I am doing some memory making of my own....stay tuned and you will see what I mean. Can't reveal it quite yet.
Some of the cuties who came to the door...
Of all the kids that came to the door, I only know the girl in pink on the right. I am getting old....I thought these girls did a great job. They told me the character on the right is in a band, and one of the other girls said "It's a really bad band!!" So cute....Now, here's some that I think were just in it for the candy. They took what they already have in the closet and just added a little something, not very creative. See, they have on all of their "spirit" paraphernalia.
More gals in that age range. The two in the middle were adorable. The one in the black and white was "prom queen 1988" and her dress was absolutely hideous from that era. She said she got it at the Good Will. It was low slung with huge white puff sleeves and a giant bow right at her lower hip. Not that we would ever draw attention to that part of our bodies, ladies. The third one you can't see very but she had a very "mod" shimmery dress and had white tights on and go-go boots. She was definitely in her disco days.
Just one more...but how I could go on...

The kid on the left was so cute. I asked if he was a mad scientist and he said I was the first to recognize that, so he gave me his "crazy" face. The kid in the back was supposed to be the scream character, but he hated the mask, so he was supposed to give me his best scream face. I don't see any melting....must have more face melting.
I must look very trust worthy, because there was no hesitation about my asking to take their pictures. A few times, I wondered if they would say no, but they all agreed.
I think we missed many of the little ones because we didn't get home until 2:30 and it started at 1. That disappointed me, not only because I think I missed some of my friend's kids, but also because I only buy candy that I like, so there are Reeses, M&M's, gummy things of all kinds and Tootsie stuff in the house. The scale for my Monday weigh in was not kind this morning. I guess that's what happens when your dinner is candy....
Just a fun day, other than leaf raking in the horrible wind by Chuck. He put 5 cans at the curb this morning and he said that was only about 1/3 of what's out there. It's a weekly job.
Stay tuned regarding what I was doing all day.
