Where Did Halloween Go?

(face in the palm....huge sigh.......................)

Halloween just isn't what is used to be ~
There was a time when little (and even not-so-little kids) dressed up in costumes, grabbed a plastic pumpkin to haul their yummy loot, and yell "Trick-or-Treat" when you opened the door. Those times were soooo much fun!

The Ghost, the Witches, the Super Heros, the Cartoon favorites.....

This year we had maybe 12 Halloweeners - only 5 in true costumes that fit the occasion.The others....not so much. Those that darkened our door were not in costumes...weren't even thrilled to be there...just give them the damn candy so they can go away. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh.


We ended up with way more candy than we need to have in the house (but we are not going to part with it ;o)) and we were disappointed in the lack of initiative and excitement of Halloween. I got to see a lot of pictures of Trick-or-Treating kids on Facebook today - which I LOVE!!! But I was secretly jealous that we missed out!

Oh...we did get THE CUTEST little Trick-or-Treater - she made up for what we missed....my Granddaughter, Evie - our own little Garden Gnome!


Peace!

The Dark Days

I still have them...just without drinking through them. Sometime I wish I could, but it's not an option if I want to live. Peace
