Being our first Halloween up in Copper Ridge, we didn’t quite know what to expect as far as the number of “treaters” coming to our house. After an hour we realized we were in over our heads, Jon was rationing our candy, giving out one item to each kid… he refused to go and buy more, something about rotting teeth and helping out their parents by limiting their supply. what a nut!
So I headed out to get some more, and good thing I did cause the kids didn’t stop coming until well after 9:00. As the evening progressed, it was mainly the teenagers out ringing the doorbells. At one point three boys stopped by and had a little conversation with JB, it went like this:
Kid: Trick or Treat…hey since it is so late can you just give us the rest of your candy?
JB: Huh?…you guys arent even dressed up…
Kid: we are too…
JB: oh yeah, what are you then..local teenagers?
Kid: No, gangsters…
other kid: yeah American gangsters…
JB: nice try… now get outta here!
As soon as the door shut Jon runs upstairs emitting a nervous laugh and saying “ohh we are gonna get it”and starts peeking through the corner of the window making sure the kids dont start throwing eggs at our house or something…. and continued to do so for the remainder of the night.
what a dolt…all over candy.
