another halloween over

Another Halloween has gone by at our house, has it really only been 3 years since we have moved? This year Halloween was a Friday and rain was predicted so we were not sure what kind of a night we would have in terms or kids at the door. It certainly started slowly and based on our neighbor's report it was going to be a light night.

We ordered a take out pizza, had out 2 jack o'lanterns lit so we were prepared for whatever the night threw at us. It really wasn't until about half past six that we really started getting our doorbell rung about every 5 minutes. Quite a fair number of Spidermen and Disney Princesses. Scream ghosts still holding steady and only one professional sports figure in MLB gear.

In my youth if you didn' have a cool enough costume you could always use one your brother's NFL Jerseys and put a little black under your eyes and you were all set. Does this mean that sports are losing their appeal to today's kids in favour of video games? Or do they wear their team colours so often at school it isn't considered a 'proper costume' anymore?
