Trick-or-treat







This year, Conrad went as a cowboy, and I was the Cat in the Hat! We went around Grandpa and Grandma's neighborhood like we always do. We got a lot of candy, and my favorite that I got was fruit roll-ups!
While we were trick-or-treating, a very funny thing happened. At one of the houses, there is always a witch. She has scary music playing, a cauldron with smoke coming out, and always says scary things. One year, she made Conrad cry because he was so scared. And, one year, she told me that she was going to cook me and eat me. I have always been very scared, even last year!
This year, even though the picture looks dark, it was still light out. When we were getting close to her house, I thought I saw a statue of a witch moving up and down on her sidwalk, but Dad said that it was the witch we saw who was outside lighting all the candles up and down her sidewalk. Her back was to us, and suddenly, Dad snuck up behind her tree and so did we. Then, while we watched from behind the tree, Dad snuck up and touched her and said, "Boo!" She was so scared (and mom didn't like the words she said!) and for once, we scared her more than she scared us!!!!
