Hallowe'en is still fun in my part of Canada and most people participate. I've always made elaborate costumes for my kids and made one for my great niece this year. She's the most adorable little pumpkin. We live in the country and I always dressed up and drove my kids (too far to walk)to our relatives, neighbours and church family members. My kids always got large heavy bags of candy because our country neighbours were able to be generous as they only would get a dozen or so trick or treaters. I'm giving out a large chocolate bar and a can of pop this year but have no one to take out. I don't mind older kids and teens at my door for treats because then I know my mailbox won't get trashed.
