Well, another Halloween has come and gone and Christmas stuff fills the aisles at the stores (I LOVE Christmas, but what is the deal with that?)
We trick-or-treated around the neighborhood until we were slowed down by a blister, "burning ankles" (???), and a pumpkin trick-or-treat bucket that was too heavy. We told the kids we would buy their candy from them...then the negotiations started on how many dollars per pound we would pay. I'm sure it will just stay on the counter for a day, then graduate to the cupboard (where it always gets forgotten), and then find its' final resting place in the garbage.
I'm not the biggest fan of Halloween, so I'm happy to move on to November. My boys asked why I never let them be anything "dead" for Halloween..."because I think it's disgusting, and why would you want to be something gross and depressing when there are so many creative/funny things to choose from...blah, blah, blah..." At some point during this conversation they have had it with my rambling and have walked away!
So, enjoy sneaking Halloween candy while everyone is at school...and Merry Christmas!

Oh my gosh I laughed out loud at the "at some point they walked away" *SNORT*.
You totally caught me eating their candy while reading your blog!
