we had a little halloween get-together at cruft manor tonight. besides the normal events, i tried a few new things.
mira, kate and zoe carved up pumpkins while waiting for the sun to go down.
this year i decided to buy full size hershey bars to give out rather than deal with the handfuls of cheap candy. my brother matt was first to try this a few years ago and i wanted to give it a try.
the kids were impressed with the full size candy bars and i think it can be counted as a success. i also wanted to keep track of the various costumes that came to the house. our friend monique did a great job of keeping track while i was out trick or treating with the kids. when i got home i took over. we went through over 180 hershey bars (5 boxes of 36 each) and had to resort to the back up...
