Halloween Candy Hangover

Oh my! Halloween night Of fun and spooky fright Moonlight creating flickering Shadows Children Quite elated Trick-or-treating with friends Who’s creepiest with make-up and Costumes Evening Getting cooler Night is getting darker Children walking with bright flashlights Chilling Goblins, Haunted houses, Black cats, witches on brooms, Owls hoot, bats silhouette the moon Eerie! Carved out Spooky pumpkins Glowing flickering eyes Watch out for small ghost and goblins Door sign Grumpy Children to bed Sick with crampy tummies Halloween candy hangover Nightmares 10/17/2015 Children Story My parents didn’t celebrate Halloween so I didn’t have the pleasure of the fun ... I always made my boys their costumes and painted their faces. When Halloween evening came around my friends and I would walk our children around the safe neighbor hoods. They used to have so much fun.

:)Halloween is so much fun when I can see the children all dressed up and excited receiving a handful of candy. We don't get that many here I guess parent are afraid to walk around the neighborhoods.

I loved to watch my children have so much fun in their coustumes then afterwards we'd take them the neighborhood church they had their own safe parties and games.
