We had 3 nights of trick-or-treating this year, the ward trunk-or-treat,
Intel which was on Friday and then the neighborhood on Saturday.
Brooklyn only got to trick-or-treat around Intel, but the other kids and
especially Michael had a great time going all three times. On Saturday
night when we would get to someone's door he would say, "Okay everyone,
here we go!!!" Then when he got candy in his bucket he would say, "Oh
WOW! This is so awe-some. This is so cool," in his broken monotone
voice said with as much enthusiasm as his little body could get out. He
would shake and jiggle and become very animated every single door we
went too. Now that makes trick-or-treating fun with kids! Our
costumes we kept very simple this year and used whatever we had around
the house or in storage. I just didn't feel the desire this year to put
out the cash for any new costumes, and I think we did pretty well. It
made Halloween feel old-fashioned and authentic, almost a Charlie Brown
kind of feel. However, we have been blasted with candy around here with
5 kids and 3 nights of trick-or-treating, but it has been fun.
