Snow White and her Prince Charming got all dolled up to go trunk-or-treating at the West Jordan trunk-or-treat and we took photos before we left. Except that it was a mess-up and the trunk-or-treat (regardless of what the website said) didn't start until 5pm... it was just after 3pm. LAME. We began the walk around, not knowing that it wasn't started yet, the kids got 2 Frisbees from some "be healthy" stand, and then they got a sheet of safety tips and a stuffed animal from another stand. Once we hit one of the people that actually was sitting there with her car she wouldn't let Duncan take any candy (he was a little excited) and explained what was going on. So basically our options were:
a) play for two hours and die of boredom before the dumb thing even started
b) go over to the carnival, which apparently was scheduled for 3-5pm and PAY to get in
c) go home and attempt to come back
d) go home, come back, and kill someone because there's no parking
Considering there were hardly any empty spots when we were leaving the shindig a little after 3pm, we decided on the third option and took a detour on the way home, picked up our produce from Ream's and the kids each got a $1 to spend on whatever candy they wanted. :) Honestly, it was instant gratification - they were in heaven, LOL.
And of course, we'll be trick-or-treating on Halloween as well! More then...
