Total count:
81 children in costumes
10 babies
15 children sans costumes
Next year, I'll have some big sized toys for the babies and anybody who requests, and raisins for the kids who think they're too cool to wear their mask, or even *have* a mask.
Switched off with Michele for a while - she took the kids out in her neighborhood, then I took them all around the block here while she handed out our candy. It was so different from going out when I was a kid, a completely different type of neighborhood.
And do you know what the kids were most excited about? The juice. One house near us (like living in a fishbowl - the people there like to have big displays in their windows instead of curtains. They don't ever have mess or even walk around naked, presumably because of this) gave a thing of juice to the baby - and the bigger ones wanted juice too! And then they all wanted to open their juice RIGHT THEN (we didn't have that problem with candy) and when they got home they wanted Michele to examine the juice RIGHT THEN so they could open it RIGHT THEN, and Angelique said it was the best part later.
Next year, I might buy juice too. Clearly, it's what kids like.
