Trick-or-Treat!

Most of the normal places we get Halloween pumpkins were out by the time we went to purchase them, but in the end we prevailed and got two. Wonderful Husband did a blocky face and I, after asking Squiddle what kind of pumpkin face he wanted ("scary") did one with pointy teeth. We also made up a couple tomato cage ghosts, which were fun and will probably be dragged out again next year.
All that, and we got a grand total of 29 trick-or-treaters. Which is less than half of last year's number! So we have leftover candy, and I have no willpower. *sigh* But after the first couple groups of kids came to our door, Squiddle announced that he also wanted to do trick-or-treating, which he was clearly equating with "dress up in costume and be given candy by my parents" rather than "dress up in costume and go door-to-door." ^_^ So Wonderful Husband helped him into his Toothless costume, and he got to have two small Tootsie Rolls over the course of the evening.
