Trick or Treat

Beautiful beautiful beautiful day for Halloween this year.  I think it was in the low 60s.  The kids did not need jackets for trick or treating.


Miss Wickham...errr....I mean Waldo.  The other side of the twin home belongs to a haistylist who's front lawn is decorated with mannequin heads.  Megan did not trick or treat at that door.
 Not too often you can trick or treat in ND in flip flops
The Loot

We made our usual route through the neighborhood, visiting the homes on our street, making sure we stopped by Mr Shreve's and Miss Wickham's, as the boys claimed they had special treats for them (which they did).  Then, we walked past Johns Drive and 4th St and went to 5th St where all the action is.  We saw lots of the boys' classmates. 

As is tradition, once we get home we dump all the goods out on the floor.  Then, Mom and Dad in their anal retentive-ness sort the candy.  Yes, we sort the candy.  Here is the tally for 2011
