Trick or Treating

This year Frank really wanted to go trick or treating in the neighborhood. He wanted to meet some new people and hand out candy. We live in what is called "old town" and apparently there wasn't very much participation from our neighbors. Savannah was the youngest trick or treater in the neighborhood. There was just a small handful of kids out in the area. We only found about 7 houses that were handing out candy at the time that we ventured out. It was quite a disappointment for me. I didn't have very high expectations for this old town.

I had also received an invite to go trick or treating in my babysitters neighborhood. That was a much better turn out and I really enjoyed our time there. It was cold but it wasn't too bad after we started walking around. Savannah was really excited this year! She refused to wear the costume at first but we convinced her to put it on so she could go around and get candy. Earlier in the day I stopped by Walgreen's to pick up some candy and Savannah pick up a package of M&M's and proceeded to walk out of the store. I had to teach her what stealing was and we took the candy back. Savannah's friend Dominick was Gene Simmons from KISS and she dressed up as a ghost this year. She was so cute walking around saying trick or treat all night long. Instead of knocking on the door she would yell out trick or treat to get people to come to the door. I ended up having to ring the doorbell or knock on the door. She made out like a bandit and was a real trooper seeing how she didn't eat dinner until later on in that evening. She snacked on some candy and a popcorn ball.
