I guess I should have added an option for "I don't pass out candy", I'm a poll novice. :oops:

I'm guessing well over 200 here. We had around 280 little bags of candy made up and gave them all out
We scared the shiznit out a bunch of kids.
I jumped out in my Leatherface gear with the chainsaw and the kids went crazy screaming and running out of the garage, and one kid took off and ran nonstop down the street screaming.
Even scared quite a few adults
Only one parent got smart with at me but I was like "hey it says "Enter If you Dare".
AAAH good times...next year It'll be better

too funny sob...

We did the security patrol for the neighborhood along with about 10 other golf carts and one hired policeman.

I'd imagine well over 200 were in the neighborhood. That guess is probably low.

We've had great weather here outside of Denver, but we're tucked away on a cul-de-sac. We only get the kids from our street and the die-hards that hit every house.

Hubby got back a 'lil while ago with Victoria and she made out like a bandit! Our first year in 5 years the weather has held up for her to really make a round in the neighborhood!

Haha! That's great!! Matt told me about a house where we went where a guy jumped out of the bushes lookin' all bloody and stuff.

I guess the girls (including mine) who were trick-or-treating weren't scared at all, but the boy (older than the girls) ran like a sissy! :lol:

Only had two...and they were the next door neighbors' young grand keets...both ~18 months old (not twins...different parents) and they were cute trying to figure it out. But once they saw the chocolate.... :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:
