Halloween 2006

I just never know, some years here at the Cove's, there are 3 trick-or-treaters, and some years, I'm absolutely slammed. I've never figured out what the 'predictor' is.

Last year I actually ran OUT of goodies to give out. I had to turn off my porch light, and ignore the knocks on the door. I felt like Scrooge!

So, in spite of the new 'security' fence and gate that is now fully operational, this year I stocked up. I purchased a variety of individually wrapped hard candies, stuff that I like, just in case. I had a little plastic black cauldron 3/4 full of candies.

The kidlets started arriving just at dusk. And they kept coming in little, adult supervised groups, till 10PM.

They were so cute! I even had one memorable costume, Harry Potter! He was adorable with the plaid shirt, glasses, hair, and freckles. Over half the candy was given out.

This year, unlike last, The Sisters stayed out of the way, yet weren't scared by all the unusual activity at the door.

I love Halloween...
