This past week we had “Trunk or Treat” in my ward.  I’ve never been to one before but it was very fun.

My sons were:

  • A Cowboy
  • A Power Ranger
  • A Chicken/duck (still can’t figure out which one) with backwards feet!

The food was to die for, there were maybe fifteen types of Chili, corn bread and pie to choose from.
There were some interesting costumes as well.  Most notable was the Bishop dressed up as Captain Moroni.  The missionaries changed name tags and were each other.

Trunk or Treat is definitely a must do every year now.  It is a very safe environment, less walking, more candy, SAFE candy!  There were also games for the children.

It was a chance to spend time with my family and socialize with the members in my ward outside of a “reverent” mode that I am usually in on Sundays.

One last note, it is amazing how quickly an Elder’s Quorum can put away a parking lot full of tables and chairs in less than ten minutes.
