Beggar's Night

We had a pretty nice night for trick-or-treating this year and the kids just loved it!  We had a ton of kids come to the door and the whole neighborhood was buzzing.  Nate took the kids out, while I stayed back to pass out candy.  In DSM, trick-or-treating is called Beggar's Night and it is the night before Halloween.  While I think it's odd to not have it on Halloween, it's pretty fun because the kids are supposed to tell a joke to get candy, hence Beggar's Night.  The kids got a TON of candy and it's all I can do to keep my hand out of it!!!

Mia loves Halloween, the dressing up, the candy and all things scary!!  She has been asking all week if it is Halloween again yet :)
