We do trunkers (mainly because they serve dinner so I don't have to cook, lol) but we also do trickers with mom and dad close at hand! (One good thing for our kids, our trunkers are not on Halloween, so double candy for the kiddos!)Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00814491452113019942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946285014684580221.post-58787169114384981202008-10-23T13:23:00.000-06:002008-10-23T13:23:00.000-06:00we do both...trunk or treat at our church and tric...we do both...trunk or treat at our church and trick or treating on halloween night!Candy @ Mommypaloozahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00472046818295100973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946285014684580221.post-71281765696740972392008-10-23T10:36:00.000-06:002008-10-23T10:36:00.000-06:00Oh My! and I though that taking my kids trick or t...Oh My! and I though that taking my kids trick or treating to the mall was horrible. We would stand in a line that moved like moasses around the mall and hope that you get to the stores before they ran out of candy. I finally live in a small town again where the kids go door to door, stop at the fire department for donuts, coffee, hot chocolate and big candy bars and then off to the American Legion for hot dogs and warm drinks and then swing back around towards home stopping at the homes we missed. The kids get to experience the night the way my brother and I once did.Active Ackleyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13058126283531654757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946285014684580221.post-35259985139862821102008-10-23T09:47:00.000-06:002008-10-23T09:47:00.000-06:00I have the best of both worlds, I think.My Ward do...I have the best of both worlds, I think.<BR/>My Ward does Trunk or Treat the weekend before Halloween (we only did on ON Halloween the year of the 9-11 attacks and the year after that)<BR/>Im with you...I dont like Trunk or Treat on Halloween. It's not that great on any night. It is over too quickly unless other activities are planned.<BR/>I like to be in my own neighborhood, especially since we are the only LDS people here. I dont like to be gone and have my neighbors think I am unfriendly or not celebrating, etc.<BR/>My neighborhood is so much fun on Halloween Night. Adults and Children are packed in the streets going door to door. It is like a scene from a movie. I love it. People come to my neighborhood from the rural areas. We have a gated community, but somehow they get in and it has never been a problem.<BR/>We start with dinner at my housewith friends and neighbors, then head out with the kids.<BR/>We end up at our house for spiced cider, candy inspection and eating, etc.<BR/>This year, being a Friday night, we will probably watch The Great Pumpkin movie or something like that.<BR/>It is the only night of the year I actually see some of my neighbors.<BR/>OK...sorry for such a long comment.Shaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216678919179070262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946285014684580221.post-57554792222639642422008-10-23T08:44:00.000-06:002008-10-23T08:44:00.000-06:00Trunk or treat is not my cup of tea.

Now that I've experienced it once, I REFUSE to trunk or treat.Callyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00527932229287810473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7946285014684580221.post-26120293188141505132008-10-23T08:33:00.000-06:002008-10-23T08:33:00.000-06:00I AGREE 100%!!!!!!!
