Because of my upcoming surgery, my middle daughter came over to pass out candy while her husband worked, her daughter and younger son were at church parties.<BR/><BR/>I have a real problem with the number of people who have decided Halloween is evil. Yes, things change, but not always for the better.<BR/><BR/>Happy All Saints' Day...have a safe trip to Houston.Sue Seiberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079271353907261500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9567735.post-1162332968943747582006-10-31T17:16:00.000-05:002006-10-31T17:16:00.000-05:00I too opt for the store bought get ups.

So he and my husband are out there tonight with lazer sword flashing and all the kids hyped to the rafters having a ball while I await the doorbell to hand out the goodies.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02166011380454448476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9567735.post-1162327656513838462006-10-31T15:47:00.000-05:002006-10-31T15:47:00.000-05:00I miss seeing the home-made costumes of my childho...I miss seeing the home-made costumes of my childhood, but if mom's less stressed and the kids are happy, then it's ALL good.

Mr C loves it so he does the giving out of candy, etc. I grew up on a farm way out in the country - never did trick or treat in my life!Gerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06292762162661584206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9567735.post-1162310496036913042006-10-31T11:01:00.000-05:002006-10-31T11:01:00.000-05:00I just love answering the doorbell and seeing thes...I just love answering the doorbell and seeing these little spooky faces! My husband used to leave work early on Halloween so he could give out treats. We lived in St Charles, IL on a corner in a huge residential neighborhood three blocks from the elementary school. We gave out 100's of treats. Our favorite night of the year!!! Especially the little 2 year olds.<BR/><BR/>Now we have no treaters--except at the library. The costume pajamas isn't a bad idea. We often see superheros in pajamas and boots visiting the library 365 days of the year.

Those suits with the muscles totally crack me up. I have similar ambivalence about the making/buying costume thing. But it's all about the fun, right? That's what I figure.
