1. What is the first costume you REMEMBER wearing?I remember being a lady bug when I was really young. I loved lady bugs and would catch them every chance I got.

2. The best Halloween candy to get is....?
Hands down the best candy is anything chocolate

3. The best costume you ever wore?

My best costume was a roaring 20's dance dress that I wore as an adult. It was an authentic one that belonged to my great aunt.

4. Haunted Houses...fun, silly, too scary for me, other..
Haunted houses are not my thing. Don't really know why.

5. Worst Halloween "treat" to get is...?
Never liked getting cherry flavored things. Hate cherries.

Kindergarten - I was Wonder Woman. It had the blue cape with a hideous belt and that old style plastic "if it rips at all it will cut your face up" mask with the holes that never quite fit right on your eyes. Still...I wanted that costume so bad and loved it! LOL!

2. The best Halloween candy to get is....?
Snickers, Butterfingers, PB cups...oh who am I kidding? Anything chocolate really!

3. The best costume you ever wore?
I was a ghost one year where these face paint people came to our school and did my face up with white and black. Kind of a "SCREAM" expression done with the make up and it looked awesome.

4. Haunted Houses...fun, silly, too scary for me, other..
Fun & silly but too expensive most of the time for my tastes.

5. Worst Halloween "treat" to get is...?
Raisins

1. What is the first costume you REMEMBER wearing?
Our church did a Noah's Ark theme on our front lawn where we had a big cardboard ark and all the adults were members of Noah's family and all the kids were animals. It was kind of cute and fun and I was a tiger. I LOVED that tiger costume. I used to beg to wear it to bed.


2. The best Halloween candy to get is....?
Definitely Chocolate. Reese's peanut butter cups.

3. The best costume you ever wore?
Honestly, I've been pretty lame at the costume thing. I was a pretty good Minnie Mouse once.

4. Haunted Houses...fun, silly, too scary for me, other..
Silly

5. Worst Halloween "treat" to get is...?
Anything stolen or thrown at my house or property

1. What is the first costume you REMEMBER wearing?


I was Simba (you know, from The Lion King?). I had the lion costume complete with tail and the mask that was positioned so my head was where the mouth is LOL

2. The best Halloween candy to get is....?

ANYTHING chocolate =D
I'm definitely a chocoholic now (probably due to hormones lol) but I've ALWAYS loved chocolate...especially reeses...mmm

3. The best costume you ever wore?

ummm...Probably when I went around trick or treating with my 2 neighbors (best friends for 13 years now ) and I went as the "girl next door." I didn't dress up...I just wore what I had on and baffled all of the houses we went to...but it was a fun inside joke for the three of us.

4. Haunted Houses...fun, silly, too scary for me, other..

Depends...the one at my church is always really silly (it's like 3 year old friendly lol). However, when I went on a Sonic haunted run (one of those where you have to drive around to places), we went to a haunted house where the people working were allowed to touch you...I will NEVER go there again...I definitely don't want people's greasy hands all over me (they didn't touch in inappropriate places...but they were in my hair...ick).

5. Worst Halloween "treat" to get is...?


Pencils...I mean really, who gives PENCILS for halloween???

(we match Crick!) Wonder woman in Kindergarten! My sis was bat girl. The costumes were homemade but we got to buy the junky plastic masks so we looked like characters more



2. The best Halloween candy to get is....?
Full sized candy bars...one house at the end of the development always gave out the big full sized bars. We ed that house. lol



3. The best costume you ever wore?
the costume I was most excited about was when I was about 10 or 11. I was a person from the tv series the V...which is pretty funny considering ABC is now bringing it back as of this week! The costume was spot on, it was awesome.



4. Haunted Houses...fun, silly, too scary for me, other..

Depends on the house! There was a haunted walk through localy that was silly and then there a haunted walk through on the boardwalk that scared the stuffing outta me when I was a kid.




5. Worst Halloween "treat" to get is...?

Toothbrushes. The dentist at the top of the development gave out those. We him. lol

3. The best costume you ever wore?

hmmm, my mom made me a cat...but it was great, better than most cat outfits, I was able to use it for a play and halloween

I'm a scaredy cat so no I don't like them and have nightmares if I see too many scary things in mazes and haunted houses.

Dannie - My 12 year old will trade his smarties for your tootsie rolls. He LOVES those!

Strawberry Shortcake..now there's a blast from the past! One of our friend's boys is going to be a Smurf this year so apparently things are making comebacks.

Binky - Girl Power! YA! LOL!

Hope - I think I'd rather have a pencil than raisins, so trade?
