Oh, yum, I haven't thought about those in years! Lol, Lori, what fun Halloween was. My last year in the States we did a jack-o-lantern and a group of us got dressed up and went trick or treating - my last Halloween, at 14.
My kids have done it a couple of times here, but they had to be selective about the houses they went to. Many of the residents had never heard of Halloween here in Australia; it was only the families with kids at our local primary school, those of us who are American ex-pats or those couple of eccentrics who will dress up for any occasion. ;D
