In fact, I think I had more fun in my late 20's on Halloween than I ever did as a kid. It was mostly the fun of creating elaborate costumes. I went as everything from a totem pole to a giant papier mache giraffe to an even bigger Yellow Submarine (had to put the top down on my convertible for that one). Now? I'm a bit bah humbug'ish about the whole thing, particularly since my daughter doesn't like Halloween. It's definitely a weird holiday.

We are still trying to get power back in many parts of my state :0/<br /><br />My very favorite Halloween memory was when I was a nanny out of state - probably around six years ago. I was a live-in nanny and spent the day getting the girls ready for Halloween. Once their parents got home, they asked if I'd stay behind while they were out with the girls, for me to pass out candy. It was the very first year I had ever done that (as we didn't celebrate when I was younger). Their only instructions were to make sure I gave each child a giant handful - which pleased a lot of neighborhood kids! They all came back a bit later, and the kids and I spread out their candy, sorted, stacked, etc. and all got a belly ache with the candy we ate!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05166689236909570817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831964660986535542.post-16545622253330775302012-11-01T17:30:18.160-04:002012-11-01T17:30:18.160-04:00I wish I liked it less!I wish I liked it less!Tina Fariss Barbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15659018994558471570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831964660986535542.post-40086875203980739512012-11-01T17:29:34.108-04:002012-11-01T17:29:34.108-04:00Wow, you were spunky to give chase and get your fa...Wow, you were spunky to give chase and get your fake spider back!

I never became close with her or much of my step family.<br /><br />My mom scared me a bit about the candy we collected from going to door. She said that each piece had to be inspected for tampering or for poisening! She was serious! ... and so that was very disturbing to me. I quietly inspected candy the first couple years of because of this 'training.'<br />But over the past years I've not done it.<br /><br />Happy November 1st!!!<br />Thanks for the post that led me down memory lane:)<br />God Bless, Deanna<br /><br />Oh...
