Halloween/ Trick Or Treets

566 views

Halloween is here and the kiddos are out in droves collecting candy and goodies in their baskets and scary bags with their masks on to scare everybody they meet at the door..... This brings back so many memories as I sit on my bed watching them come on the security cameras coming up to the door of my house and my neighbors on each side of my house....

 

Just to think and remember I used to do the same thing as a child and early teenager too now I sit her barely able to walk or even see for that matter at 74 years old.... My only wish is to be right here this time next year if the Lord spare me.... Here I am unable to do things adults do, so I thank God my wife is attending the door and being amused by their costumes and mask many of the youngsters are wearing this Halloween she tells me...

 

My grand daughter and her mom is at their church doing the same thing she told me since her daughter goes to a Catholic school now.... This brings back so many memories and our Police Department just made an announcement as they ride around in patrol cars to be alert for robbers..... Well my wife has her pistol in her pocket so we will be OK since it's now dark outside but all our lights are shining outside as I see on our cameras.....

 

Well that's all folks for this blog and Happy Halloween to all of you!! :trick or treat: :witch: :pumpkin:

Yes I know what you mean,I remember dressing up as a child and a teen. And making costumes for my own kids. Then driving to carnivals. I loved dressing up and dressing others up.

Time passes fast. I pray you will enjoy making new memories this holiday season.

Fred, I am glad you have so many wonderful memories of Halloweens gone by.  Ray is still in his rehab SNF so no trick or treats, but they did have a pumpkin decorating contest one day and a costume parade by the employees another.  There was the annual Edgar Allen Poe festival in our town this weekend, and if Ray was home I would have taken him for sure. Let's hope that Thanksgiving and Christmas shape up and we can all celebrate in a more festive manner.

I was at an older friend's house and watched her delight as little ones came to her door dressed in fancy costumes.  Our church held a neighbourhood event on Friday night which was a big success. I am not into Halloween as it is not really an Aussie tradition but the young ones seem to love the dressing up and the older ones seem to love seeing them having fun.
