Halloween 2007

Wednesday, 31st October 2007

Mike asked me whether I would like to stay home and wait for the children to come to the house for "Trick-or-Ttreat" or participate in the annual Tri-Ward Trunk-or-Treat at the church park lot, which included dinner.

I thought it would be fun to join the church activity. This would be my first experience with "Trunk-or-Treat". It was definitely a good time to socialise with the members in a different environment, other than the Sunday meetings. Also this would be the first social, since I joined, whereby all the 3 wards (3rd, 5th & 9th) come together and have fun.

Members were asked to bring, if we could, a pot of chili, salad, cookies, or cupcakes. We bought a box of cupcakes from Wal-Mart.

Dinner was fun. There were rolls, sausages, buns, meat, salad, lots of different chilis, cookies, cupcakes, brownies, etc.

After dinner, children walk from one trunk to another for "trick-or-treat".

Come and listen to our spooky music

He looked serious? Looking after a spooky car is a serious business otherwise the big boss will come after you!

I wonder how it would feel to drive up behind this truck in the middle of the night, in the middle of the jungle, where there are no other lights except for the light from the moon and the car lights, where there are no sounds except the sounds of the owls and the car engine.

Be careful! It sways right and left continually, staring at every car that passed the house. It might jump on you when you least expect it!
