Our 1st Halloween in a house!

This was our first Halloween living in a home, and in a nieghborhood with kids. In the past few years...9 to be exact we have lived in apartments. Kids do not really trick or treat in apartment complexes, so we usually do not have any trick or treaters on Halloween night; and yet I still buy the bags of candy hoping for some costumed cuties to knock on our door and say, "Trick or Treat."

This year we are no longer living in apartments and actually had trick or treaters visit!!! I am not talking about 3 or 5 or even 10 at the most, we had 47 kids knock on our door! I am glad I bought just the right amount of candy, by the end of the night we were down to one Musketeer, and two Worthers originals in our candy bowl.

I was so excited to get trick or treaters this year that I jotted down the different costumes and kept a running tally of how many people came to our door.

Totals:
Girls: 30 Boys: 16 Trick or Treated

Costumes:
Coolest costume was a toss up between the "Garden gnome" and the Woopie Cushion! HAHA!

Witch: 2
Ninja Turtle: 3
Cowboys: 3
Fairy: 2
Go Go Dancer: 1
Geesha girls: 5
Vampire: 2
Hannah Montana: 1
(surprisingly, I thought there would be more girls dressed up as her this year, from the popularity of the High School Musical Movie, and Disney tv show)

Pirate: 2
Belle: 2
Princess Leah 1
Snow White 1
Black Spiderman 1
Sports guy 1
Black Ninja 1
Skeleton 1
Bride 1
