Do my feet hurt! We walked the entire neighborhood last nite! But it was so worth it. My little goblins made out like bandits. I have taught them well :)
Jordan went out to his dad's for the weekend so he wasn't with us. Dakotah wanted to go with her bff so she wasn't with us either. My mom brought my sister out so that she could go with us. I made my mom walk with us even though she was whining about her back and feet. Must suck to be old ;)
We have a pretty good-sized neighborhood. Our first leg of the nite was the few streets surrounding ours. My mom was whooped after that so we brought her home. That gave the kids a chance to go to the bathroom and grab a drink. Had to reenergize! I took them back out and we covered the other half of the neighborhood. We were out for 2 1/2 hours.
The husband had to work last nite. We thought he might make it home so that he could go with us for part of the time but he didn't. They were extremely busy. Halloween is the busiest nite of the year for the shop. Needless to say he didn't get home until 10 pm. He was a little upset that he didn't get to go out with the kids because he has every year. There's always next year.
As I said in the beginning the kids made out like bandits. I wish that I had a scale so that I could weigh their bags. Each of their bags was full to the top. I'm guessing that among the 4 of them there has to be over 10 lbs of candy of not more. And that's not including Jordan's bag. I love candy! Did I mention that I love Halloween? :)
After a crazy nite of trick or treating I was able to send a few of the kids off. Kotah stayed at her bff's house and Shae went to my mom's. It was pretty quiet with just Hadlei and Skylar home. I watched a little tv until my hubby came home and after he ate dinner we went through the candy to check it all over and taste test some of it ;)
The kids had a great time last nite. Hadlei liked it so much that when she got up this morning she asked me if we could go trick or treating when the sun goes down. She is something else!
