What I'm Doing On Halloween

Happy Halloween!

Here are things that I plan on doing today:


1. Order pizza for dinner. I'm not cooking on a holiday.

2. Remind Natalie to say thank you. Sometimes she gets overexcited when a wad of chocolate is dumped in her bag. I understand. I'd get excited too. But still. Say thank you.

3. Dodge families who feel the need to take over the ENTIRE sidewalk. Do people not understand that you're supposed to go single file so people can pass? Maybe it's just Oklahoma.

4. Pass out candy when we return. I was going to leave a bowl out with a PLEASE TAKE ONE sign. But then someone said that a teenager took the entire contents of her bowl--PLUS HER BOWL--so everyone will have to wait until we get back to get our delicious Jelly Bellies, Twix bars, and M&Ms. (No weird candy here.)

5. Go through the children's bags. Toss out the weird candy. Take the ones I want, because I gave them life, so it's my right.

6. Proceed to eat the candy as I watch trash television. Kendra On Top is on tonight. Her husband might have messed around with a transsexual.


Hope your night is a fun one. (To see more of my kids in their Halloween costumes, click here!)

  4. We always respect the bowl. About half the houses in the neighborhood leave a bowl out and kids usually only take one piece.

  13. HAHAHA perfect. Hope it was an awesome night. I left candy outside. As I was walking down the driveway a herd of teenaged boys came up - I said, "Hey, just don't take it all, ok? Leave some for the other kids."

    Sure enough, we went one house down, realized we'd forgotten a hat for the small fry (it was freezing here), and upon returning home saw the candy bowl was EMPTY.

    We were gone for 3 minutes.

    PUNKS!

  15. I steal candy too! Last night I spent the night keeping an eye on a group of teenagers dressed up like Harry potter characters that were over for a party at our house. It was a long night.

  16. I hope you did all of that!!
    I steal Des' candy. I gave him life and he's only two and he doesn't know.
    Scarlet is onto me too.
    Also, pizza is a required Halloween meal, right? And it becomes positively vitamin-packed when compared to candy for dinner.

  17. I was pleasantly surprised when I returned to find candy still in my bowl. Kids were obeying the sign I left out.

    I forgot to watch Kendra last night. I really want to know if he did it.
