3rd Annual Hotdog and Hot Chocolate Halloween

This is our third year giving out Hot Dogs and Hot Chocolate to our trick or treaters instead of candy. We Open up our garage and set up tables for all of the condiments and hot chocolate and a bunch of chairs so that they can sit down and take a load off while eating and drinking. Doug brings out the BBQ and cooks the dogs on the grill, which we all know makes a hot dog taste soo much better! This year we didn't give out as many, I think it may have something to do with the fact that it was still pretty light out around 6:30 where the years past it was darker earlier which made the trick or treaters come out earlier before maybe eating. Also it was raining a little and third it was on a Friday and there were a lot of people going to parties and stuff because there wasn't work or school to get home to. But even though it was a smaller crowd, we did manage to give out around 85 hot dogs and 8 gallons of hot chocolate. We always have a good time, It is fun to get to talk a little to everyone and check out all the costumes. This year Josh and his buddies decided they were too young to go trick or treating( more the buddies, not so much Josh) so they stayed home and watched scary movies and played Xbox, Tyler went Trick or treating with Jim and Melissa, This was their 3rd year doing that so that we could stay home and do this. Tyler LOVES it and looks forward to going with Cole and Carter. I am thankful that they do that for us! Haden went out with a few of his buddies. Everyone had a great time, We love Halloween at my house, I mean who wouldn't with a holiday built around getting as much Candy as possible and dressing in crazy costumes, That is my kind of fun! Here are a few pictures of the night.
