For the first time in 6 years of participating in trick or treat - leaving chocolates, lollies, and any other goodies in our plastic orange cauldron out in front of our house - someone stole it!
We only learned about it when too many kids all at the same time knocked on our front door while blurting out “Trick or treat”!
I was like, “Hey kids, happy Halloween, there’s still many lollies and chocs in the plastic cauldron…”
Without waiting for me to finish, they answered in chorus, “There’s none!”
Hahaha, I couldn’t believe it but there really is no more container there with goodies when I looked at the empty chair.
As the stolen cauldron contained our last batch of sweet goodies, I had to get my boys’ own two pail of chocolates and lollies (from trick or treating earlier) to offer to the eagerly awaiting kids in different Halloween costumes while hurriedly explaining to Ben & Liam why we have to share their lot to the children waiting outside.
After they all said their “thank you’s” and were quite far away, I proceeded to remove any decor, lols!
Early finish for us this year. But it had been fun!
Liam has the most fun among us four!
Next year then would be much anticipated. ❤️
Later on, James checked the outer video camera and he was laughing as the little thief was caught on video, running so fast after getting our cauldron!
Aha, there you are!
I got amused when I saw it too.
Oh kiddo, what were you thinking? He must have loved those tootsie roll lollipops in there!
To keep his identity private, we won’t show the video.
It’s okay, kids having too much fun from all the sugar rush! We hope he shared that to others too.
How about you? What’s your funny Halloween experience so far?
