Trick-or-Treat!!!



This was the first Halloween we didn't spend at home trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. Garrett had a football game and I wasn't sure what to do. Thank goodness for family. We decided to head to the Ville and go see the aunts. First we went to Aunt Susan's and Angie's. Then we went to Aunt Brenda's and mooched dinner and visited her neighbors. Then we went to Aunt Sandra's and visited her and her neighbors. The kids had a blast. They would have gone all night. We came home with way too much candy and tired legs. Thank you Uncle Chris for tagging along and helping. I couldn't have done it without ya.
Just a thought: It is so weird how things are changing. Sad, I think. When we were little every door in our neighborhood was open on Halloween, and every kid was dressed up and running up and down the street. What happened to those days when people were out just to have fun and enjoy each other? What happened to people on the front porch enjoying the evening and visiting with passer by's? Now people are too lame and scared to do such things. Is it really that bad that people can't enjoy life? Why does it have to be this way?
