Trick or Treat

Sam got to go trick or treating this year, with the Johnsons! We had a good time. Josh stayed home and handed out candy to all the trick or treaters that came to our door. Before we left he gave Sam a pep-talk about all the good candy to get...like the big candy bars, any and all butterfingers, and skittles. I'd say we were pretty successful. We went to the sub-division where you have to be 55 or older to live there, so they loved having all these costumed kids knock on their door. Many of them  had some really good candy, including the large super size candy bars! (jackpot!!!) We brought home all the goods for Josh.

After putting Sam down to bed, I came downstairs and there was a knock at the door. So I got the box of candy that Josh had been handing out to trick or treaters, and answered the door. A few middle school aged boys rummaged through the box to find a piece of candy. I told them to take a few since I didn't think we'd have many more, and I see them take the big snickers bars, all the butterfingers, and every other piece of candy Sam had brought home for Josh. Then they leave. I shut the door, realizing that Josh had dumped his candy in with the give-away candy, and that it was now all gone! Josh was sitting on the couch, and had a really sad face on, knowing what had just happened. He said, in his saddest voice, "They took it all, huh? I turned the porch light off, we weren't supposed to have any more trick or treaters...awwwwww, now all my good candy is gone..." I felt so bad, and still do. Those rotten middle schoolers took THE SUPER SIZE SNICKERS BARS AND ALL THE BUTTERFINGERS. We laughed about it, but it was kind of disappointing...all of Sam's trick or treating, for naught.

On a happier, more Halloweeny note...this is what Josh did all day on Saturday...he'd walk around saying "BRRAIINNNNNSSS" and then come up to either me or Sam and pretend to take a bite of our brain.

Here's some videos of Sam being a cat. Notice all the good candy....it doesn't last long.
