The kids had a great Halloween. We stayed in our neighborhood this year and we didn't have very many trick or treaters until after 8:30 when the big kids came out with pillowcases and no costumes. I guess that happens when you live in a cul-de-sac...we only had 2 trick or treaters before 8:30 then they started coming in cars dropping them off! I didn't care as long as I got rid of my candy! The kids were excited to wake up this morning and find out what "the great pumpkin" brought. My sister came up with this great idea to trade the kids their candy for a gift! Brilliant! I fixed up 2 baggies with the best candy (10 pieces apiece) and set out their presents. Sam was so excited you would have thought Santa was coming! One of the dentists in our area is taking candy donations and sending them to the troops!

It actually wasn't my idea. I borrowed it from someone else.
I love the candy idea!
