Off to Trick -Or- Treat

The dragons getting for Trick or treat. First stop our neighbor across the street.


Then headed to the next house. I don't know how far they went but after 30 minutes I think they came back with full basket of treats.
Here are the trick and treaters carrying their jack o lantern basket full of yummy treats. can't wait to gobble all of it.

Sissy: What do you got there Kuya?
Kuya J: i got a bunch but keep your hands off my candies. It's mine
Sissy: I have a bunch too but I'll give you some of mine if you're nice to me.
Kuya J: I am nice. This is fun next time sissy let's bring a sack or a bag.
Sissy: Ok, let's go and eat.


Spider man tried to bite this one and so was the princess. I found it on the princess basket. It was a rubber ball.

So, spiderman look for his like this in his basket and found the pink one.

Out of four bags of chocolates that we bought from Costco there are more left after trick or treat especially Almond Joy and snickers because the a big hairy hand rat don't like Almond Joy. Now who wants Almond Joy?

Halloween Etiquette: Trick-Or-Treat But Be Polite

Are you ready for your Halloween Trick or Treat? Here is some good etiquette advice from Jo Bryant, etiquette adviser for Debrett's. Debrett's began in the late 18th century as a guide to England's aristocracy. It has since evolved into a source for biographical reference and an authority on modern manners and etiquette.


Britain's authority on etiquette, Debrett's, issued its first guidance Wednesday on how to behave during the uber-American holiday.

Although the holiday originated with Europe's Celtic pagans to mark the end of summer -- typically celebrated by bonfires to ward off evil spirits and children disguised as spirits of the underworld -- it has only been recently that British stores have swelled with Halloween stock and trick-or-treaters have canvassed streets for candy.

"Good manners are very important," said Jo Bryant, etiquette adviser for Debrett's. "There has been a growing presence of Halloween over the past five years and we're receiving many more queries on how to behave."

Common questions are: Is it acceptable not to open one's doors to trick-or-treaters? How many times should children be allowed to ring a door bell before moving on? And can one forego a Halloween costume at a party?

Debrett's advice to the etiquette-challenged.

"Trick-or-treat should be used as an ice-breaking formula, not a real threat. Halloween fun should never feel menacing," it says. "Children should not be too greedy -- if they are offered treats, make sure that they don't take too many and that they do say thank you."

Other advice includes respecting people's privacy -- don't repeatedly ring door bells for candy -- and if you really don't want to be bothered by trick-or-treaters, it is perfectly acceptable to leave a bowl of treats at your doorsteps so children can help themselves.

"In this day and age, people have safety concerns and there is also a feeling that trick-or-treating can be intrusive,"
Bryant said.
