Halloween
When I was growing up Halloween was the best. Our neighborhood was the greatest growing up. It saddens me now that our children can’t have the same experience as we did growing up.
Here is my experience with Halloween.
It was alwayas pizza night. We would order from Little Ceasars and eat our dinner,
After the first people came to the house my sisters and I were allowed to go. We had street lights so no one used flashlights, sometimes we would meet up with a group. We would go door to door every single door had their porch lights on and it wasnt just one or two pieces of candy it was a handleful. Our neighboorhood was huge we would be out maybe two to three hours just to make sure we got every single house. We would come home dump our candy out, mom would check it and put all of it in a huge bowl that we had to keep in the kitchen. We were allowed one to two pieces a day. Needless to say I think my mom and dad enjoyed the candy more then we did.
After all the excitement we would have warm baths and go to bed.
It was the best experience and I wish my son could know what that was like. We didn’t have to worry about being with an adult or what time to be home or not walking in the streets. Its just the way it was, carefree and fun.
