This year I'm going to wrap myself in toilet paper, pin dollar bills on myself, and come out singing "Wheel of Fortune". Anyone else got ideas for this crazy night? Looking forward to some Spooky Q costumes.
We put a fire pit out front of the shack. have plenty adult beverages on hand.. and a cauldron full of coyote dropping..lol.. I hide my coyote caller in the bush and use the remote to scare the bejesus out of any one walking by it..we have had so much fun doing that. we normaly have friends over for grilled goodied before the event starts. with adult beverages flowing freely..enjoy your self..
I used to get all "dolled" up... rubber scarey mask..big ole bloody knife and stuff my shirt and pantslegs with straw and just sit on the front porch real still-like...and then when kids came up... LOL! Made too many cry tho... Sigh.
We used to do all the neat stuff but anymore its just sit on the porch and hand out the candy to the 500-750 kids that come thru. Seems we are one of those neighborhoods they truck the kids to we have averaged that many kids for the last 10 years or so.
I think that is insane. Fortunately I am not in a neighborhood they do that. We always go to my parents (all the kids with all the grandkids) and have chili, dogs and mac & cheese and then take all the kids out to trick or treat. We get to see the folks we grew up with and their kids. Kind of like a big reunion. I haven't dressed up in years, but if you ask my DH he'll tell you I make a pretty good wicked witch!
Hmmm, last year I went as a lightning bug. Had a nice little outfit complete with wings....and one of those battery operated "touch" lights super glued to my hind end that lit up every time I gave it a whack.
well have fun everyone...me myself will be working mandatory inventory....my kids and wife will have to do it on their own this year....wife not happy with my job because of this ....
I never realized the WW of the W was also the Maxwell House coffee lady but is sure was. Was it Edith? The flying monkeys scared the Bejesus out me as a young lad.
I've learned the last few years to buy candy that I don't like, this way I don't eat it. I get about 50 to 100 kids depending on the weather and the day it's held on, I'm expecting quite a few this year. I always get a couple of highschool kids with no costume on. When I ask them what they're dressed as they always come back with a answer like, "I'm a student, or I'm a old man dressed as a kid". My answer normally is, "you look like a giant ******* to me". Then I have the water hose handy if they decide to retaliate later with TP or eggs.
