Happy Halloween everyone. I love Halloween, I think it's because I know there is candy involved. If I could get a bag of Tootsie Rolls, Snickers and Butterfingers, I would be one happy fat girl. Sonya HATES Halloween, so don't go to Shelby looking for candy from her. What was your favorite candy to find in your treat bag or that you talk your kids into giving you now?
One Halloween I remember Sonya, Momma and I all dressed as clowns. Sonya and I had matching clown costumes, teal with pink dots. Momma's was cream with black dots. Momma made those costumes. One year Sonya dressed up as an old woman, that one was really good. Good or bad, what costume do you remember?
I have a couple of errands to run today. My wonderful Middle School girls collected candy for the kids at CVAN, the battered women's shelter, to make treat bags. So, The Littles and I are going to deliver those. Then, I think Robin and I are going to vote. It will be much easier today with just two kids than on Tuesday with three. When I told Alex we were going to vote, he said, "Vote for Becca." Alex is going to start a grass roots effort to elect Becca for President. Then in the car he yelled out all of the Davis girls names to vote for. I talked to Becca this morning and she is preparing for a debate. In one of her classes they are debating the Presidental canidates. I think that is a great assignment for them. It gets them to really look at the issues and think for themselves. After that I have to go to BJ's to buy candy for Trunk or Treat tonight. Yep, I am such a slacker that I am just now buying my candy. Have a safe Halloween tonight everyone!

Butter Fingers and Almond Joy were by far my favorites as a kid. My mom always went through the candy first and took her favorites..! Have fun tonite. We won't be @ Trunk 'O Treat ~~ when you have a fifth grader, it's all about the friends.
I think "checking the candy" is just a parent trick to get what we want. Sonya and I were only taken to peoples homes we knew, so why check the candy?
pretty much anything chocolate was, (no IS), my favorite!! butter finger, m&m's, and anything from hershey's. i couldn't get away with taking my kids candy. my kids, who can't remember their homework or to do their chores, have the uncanny ability to take a mental inventory of each and every piece of candy that falls into their bucket!
