We stay home and give out candy...and lots of it. We make it our annual tradition to order food in, and be at the mercy of the kids!
I also have a tendency to get into this holiday....it is my birthday- so I have an excuse!
Hope you enjoy your night Pam! Have fun.

And we don't eat ANY of the aforementioned candy. Not one M&M, not one Snickers. Neither Kit-Kats, nor Reeses. Nothing.

Normally I give out candy, but this year I'm hiding in the home office with all the lights out, as the wife and son are visiting family back east, so I'm alone this Halloween.

I just picked up some candy for the unlikely event that someone actually comes by. I'll take the leftovers and feed them to ME on the night ride.

In the last 7 years I think I've had a total of 3 kids come by.
I purchase the candy, chocolate only .
Then the next day take it all to work and dump it on them. I'll eat it all in a day if it stays!!
Where is that almond joy, I know there's one left here somewhere......

So I went and saw The Prestige. I recommend it. Very interesting movie. Great time to see a movie. The theater was empty and no screaming kids. Although the theater did smell like spoiled cabbage (I almost had to leave).
As I was leaving the theater I noticed Pat & Oscars next door gives a 20% discount if you have a movie ticket stud so I picked up my buddy Richard and we had dinner. Got done about 8 and now am home. I think it's safe to move about in the house now. My neighborhood was crawling with kids. Lots of spooky houses - My neighborhood is also one of those during Christmas everyone goes all out and you can't even drive to your own house cause everyone is cruising the street.
Anyway Halloween and now over. Hope everyone had a good time!

Not a single kid in sight. Even our parking garage was empty, the parents must drive their kids to places to trick-or-treat. Ah well, plenty of peanut butter cups for me!

We gave out a crapload of candy, too. In fact, a group just took the last dozen pieces or so. So we're done.

Not a single kid, so now all the skittles, tootsie pops, whoppers, twizlers, and milk duds are all mine!

we had NO trick-or-treater's last night.... so hubby has a whole bag of candy to eat!
at 8:30 the doorbell rang.... i grabbed the bag of candy... but it was just some idiot teenager who hid to the side of the door then "screamed" in my face as i opened the door and took off running and laughing.... hardy har har har har... another delinquent with no parental supervision....
speaking of delinquents.... our fence also got paintballed..... bright neon green.... as did many houses down the street.... where is the parental supervision these days? if i had done something like that as a kid... I'D be cleaning the fences and houses i paintballed among other like punishments! at least our fence was easy to clean off.... i feel for the ones who's houses and doors, etc got it!

I'm sorry CG... what a bummer about the neon green paintball... now your fence matches my bike! I definately have to wonder where the heck the parents are these days
I'd be horrified if my kids do that stuff

We only had 3 kids come by; the third (and last) kid got the whole bowl. His mom smiled at me and said sarcastically,"Thanks ALOT ". I smiled back, with the same look, and said "Have nice evening". Geez thats what I get for being nice.
