Thanks! My mom made my dress... It has a black second hand store dress as the base and then pieced together with a few cut up shirts and some material.
My roommates' also were thrift store finds that I attacked with fabric paint. :)
2000+ kids!!! I am soooooo glad I live in the country! All we have to be careful of is the occasional prankster and we take care of those with a shotgun,,, not candy. We have lost so many mailboxes this time of year that I finally gave up and got a box in town at the post office. Very Nice costumes btw!!! You look Great!
Where I grew up, we didn't even get to go trick-or-treating because it was in the middle of nowhere. Our town is small relatively speaking, but we are on the main street for door to door trick-or treating. The cops shut down a section of the street so people can just meander in the road. The blocked off area stops a block and a half down from us.
You could do what my uncle did with his mailbox. It kept getting knocked over by cars hitting a corner too fast, so he made a concrete base into the ground and up the middle. The next car that hit it, the mailbox survived and the car didn't.
I think this was the largest party turn out we've had, and was actually less on the # of trick-or-treaters. But we love doing it. We're still in recovery mode today.
