    It's almost 7 pm and still no trick or treaters. It's odd because we usually have quite a few but I think our neighborhood is getting older and not too many little people. Also, it doesn't help that the lady across the street is either loaded on meth or is mentally ill. She spends a lot of time dancing in the yard and then yelling obscenities. We all call the police and they come but not much they can do.

    Not too many Trick or Treaters, but 6 grandkids and 7 greats came by for their special treats. Love to see the little ones. The 10 month old was an elephant. How cute. We had an owl, rubic's cube, soccer keeper, duck dynasty dude, cleopatra . What fun they are. We are so blessed to have them near.

    I had to work til 6:30 tonight but my DH passed out candy to our little tricksters. We had about 100-125 and it was really nice weather for here, about 48 degrees. He did manage to save a few pieces of choc. that just happened to fall out of the candy bucket. LOL All in all some really cute costumes.

    I did buy the chocolate, and all the things I like just in case some kids come, but nobody did.. It's all mine now. We had a couple come to the office, and we gave out. Two lucky kids got $1's. I had them in my pocket.

    Went over to help my friends to give out candy. They really decorate their house. They get 500 to 600 kids. We were busy from 6 to 8 non stop. People were taking pictures and the kids loved it.

    Since we moved to the country - no treaters. Sure miss the kids. When we lived in town we would have a haunted front yard and "live monsters" in the yard. Had almost 500 kids come the year we moved.
