Happy Halloween!!!

Treat bags for work

We’re hoping for lots of trick-or-treaters this year.  We don’t get nearly as many as I thought we would, being so close to so many things.  I hope this will be our year though.  I didn’t get to go trick-or-treating as a kid, so I get really excited about Halloween now.  I think I’m more excited over the kids coming to our door than they are over the candy.

Since Halloween falls on a workday for both of us I put together little treat bags for both of us to take to our co-workers.  I just love the little bat bags. 

Full Cauldron!
We got a little carried away on the candy aisle, so we have quite a variety, and quite a lot of it.  Our cauldron is heaped full, and we have enough left over to fill it at least once more, maybe twice.  I know we don’t need that much; I think we had maybe eight or ten kids come to our door last year, but I’m optimistic.  And it would be a shame to run out.

My husband and I have both been diligently asking (begging) co-workers to bring their kids to our house for trick-or-treating.  The pumpkins are carved, and we have tons of candy; we just need trick-or-treaters.  Our plan is to make a big pot of chili, put in a Halloween movie (probably Hocus Pocus),and hand out candy. 
The refill supply

So what about you?  What are your Halloween plans? 

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween.
