Halloween Clearance at Target

I love a good sale. Target has their Halloween merchandise 75% off right now. I got a lot of cute items for the kids next year. I enjoy making treat bags for the boys’ classmates so I stocked up for next year. There was a lot of people grabbing the candy. I glanced over to see what was left, but passed it up. We already have so much candy and with more candy around I would be forced to eat it. The sale is focused on Halloween items, but there were a lot of items I bought that you could use any day. I bought a package of pencils and erasers that were Transformers. I could use these items for when we play bingo. I enjoy having company and sometimes we play bingo. I like to have little prizes for the kids to win. I also bought 16 packages of crayons for a dollar. They were the small packages that held 4 crayons in each bag. They had some good bargains. I want to check out another Target tomorrow to see if I passed anything up. Like I said, I love a good sale!

Halloween Night

It’s the day after Halloween and I’m exhausted from last night’s activities. My boys still seem as energetic as ever. From a time change to the “going door to door” routine I must admit, I am tired. My two boys still woke up this morning at seven-thirty and it didn’t phase them we went to bed at 10:30 the night before. Their usual bedtime is 8:00. The energy of a child is priceless. Last night was fun. My oldest son dressed up as Jango Fett from Star Wars and my youngest son dressed up as Thomas the Tank Engine. We met up with a close friend of mine and did the “trick or treating” with them. She has older kids so they lasted longer than mine. My Jango Fett kept up with them, but my Thomas only lasted a few houses. Their bags were filled to the max with candy. Honestly, I had hoped they wouldn’t get so much candy. I will just end up giving it away once they forget about it. I’m the kind of mom that likes the pretzels, erasers, and pencils instead. I know that sounds pretty lame, but keep in mind they are still 3 and 5. Fortunately, they stuck to my rule of only one candy last night and to my surprise my Jango Fett actually chose the pretzels over candy. That was a shocker. So, overall the kids had fun, we were in good company, and nobody got hurt. It was a successful night. Anybody as tired as I am?
