Kids of all ages love to go out tonight, visit with neighbors, see kids in costume, and paw through the kids candy loot looking for a favorite sweet snack. I have triplet 11 year olds and if this year is like last year, each kid brought home a pillow case full of candy about the size and weight of a 20 pound turkey. This year they all vow that they will range\u00a0farther in the neighborhood\u00a0and stay out later in the search for massive quantities of sugar. Usually my husband and I take turns minding the house and giving out treats and walking with the kids, but\u00a0the kids\u00a0have already told us that this year\u00a0they are going with friends, in a pack, to be able to move faster, and get more candy. We appear to have been holding them back in their &#8220;Holy Grail&#8221; search for the home that provides the &#8220;biggest candy bar&#8221; or the most amount of candy as 8:00 PM rolls around. (For those of you that don&#8217;t live in my area 8:00 is when you start dumping the candy on any kids who come to the door so you will not have left overs that you will then have to eat yourself. We start out at 6:00 giving out two pieces to each child but by 8:00 PM it is fist fulls of candy.) This year I have only bought the candy that my own kids like, not that I expect to have any left though. It is crazy that as much as we do give away, with three wide-ranging kid-candy fiends, the haul at the end of the night will be enough to make our dentist feel that they\u00a0can now afford college for their youngest child. I hope that you will have fun tonight either going with your kids, going to your own party, or just even staying home handing out candy. Happy Halloween!"}
