Halloween experiences

Sigh...I wish I had as good of an experence as everyone else lol.

First off I had to work *yay* but really it wasn't a huge deal. I got on shift at midnight *I work security at a shopping center* and the bar is having a pary. The crowd was mellow and the bar manager is a nice guy and makes sure the place never gets out of hand. They wrap everything up and go home at about 4 am. I was checking around one of the lower levels about an hour later when I heard yelling outside and saw a pumpkin fly right over one of the gates, BREAKING part of the gate off . I check around the immediate area and didn't find anything so I went to the other side of the bulding to check and found SMASHED pumpkins all over the place . Then I found hay bales *they were used as decorations for the shopping center* drug into the middle of the street.

Why do people have to be destructive? When I got off shift at 6 no one had broken any windows and I hope that between then and now nothing else happened. It doesn't start getting light out until about 7 and its really cloudy so it was still pretty dark until right about now. It makes me so mad that someone felt the need to make a huge mess that people are going to have to clean up and damaged property on top of it all.

Sigh...

We always have good Halloween experiences. I live in a very small town, and everyone knows everyone. All the kids go to all the houses, they are always polite and cute. I have never seen or heard of any vandalism here.

One little girl, probably three years old, runs up to the door and throws her arms out and says, "I am SPIDERWOMAN!" It was adorable.

I had a great Halloween experience. In the morning Missy, Austin, Quinn and I went to Jump For Joy, the local inflatable party center, and had a costume party there. We had SUCH an amazing time.

Then that evening my hubby and I took Quinn to Missy's house and we trick-or-treated in their military housing complex. It was a great neighborhood to trick or treat in and it was just absolutely loaded with kids and even dogs dressed up.

Quinn said trick or treat (which sounded more like "tick teet") and that was just so adorable. She was brave enough to walk, with her little candy basket, up to strangers and say trick or treat. She then was amazing at saying "thank you" (which sounds more like "eye dee") to not only the person who handed her a candy, but to mommy and daddy after each house we visited. I thought it was cute that people understood her "thank you". We then went to Quinn's Nana's house and hung out there for a bit.

Missy and her boys, Tyler and Austin, are the cutest little boys and are always such a joy to hang out with.

It was a fun day AND night.
