She's so cute .Beck! She'll rack in the candy, that's for sure lol

Lol. Its quite sad actually because where I originally come from in north england people will give candy and money to kids. Down here in london though nobody answers the door. They are really un- child friendly down here in the city

Ahh yes, lovely .London. Us northern folk are much happier one nice old couple round here once gave me and my friend £10, invited us in for some cake and lemonade, and we were like 15 at the time

your little sis is so cute .Beck, in the first pic she looks so innocent... Hmm I bet she's not really. Hehe

Aw see- good ole northerners. Makes me wanna move back home

zanny she is definately not innocent. She only managed to stay still for the photo then was running around causing chaos again!

Oh my gosh, layla looks so much like courtney! Cute pics

Haha .Becca, shes a cutie!!
(but those gloved nails are a lil creepy...)

Awe lol how adorable

Thanks girls! Like I posted on the teen preg. Forum- lots of people say they look alike. They have the same skin tone/ hair and eye colour. Here's a pic of them togteher:



courtney is half italian and layla is half portuguese.

Yes, they do look somewhat alike, it must seem strange having a sister 17 years younger but it happens! Hallooween is sooo much different then what it used to be, peole are too afraid this day and age to open their doors and a lot of the candy is cut with drugs, they put razor blades in the apples, it is gitting scarry! I love to see the little ones though! I used to like dressing up even when I was working. It looks like you will have your hands full!

yikes for real??? Omg that is so so scary

sandy, are you in the .U.S? If so, where (if you don't want to answer you certainly don't have to) as a child I always went trick-or-treating in my town, which was small and everyone knew everyone else....So it was very safe (but my parents still went through all our loot to check it out)
and even now it's pretty good, but the town I live in now....I wouldn't let my child eat anything she got from here. Not because it's a bad town, but it's bigger and I don't know many people....So I can't trust them! I haven't heard of any of that stuff happening near me, but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened. It's just too bad anyone would want to harm another person, let alone a child!!

Kia, what's halloween like in the .U.K?

it's been trashed.
Kids go round putting dog poop or petrol bombs in letter boxes as "tricks"
no-one wants to open their doors because those who give treats usually get tricks too.

It's sad and a total shame.

But quite a few people have halloween parties and hide candy (like easter egg hunt) for the kids to make it safer.

Mandoi-- thats actually a common occurance... Livingin areas like orlando, brooklyn, chicago.. Big metro areas.. It happens.

There was a big thing a few years ago about this man putting acid (the drug) on the sticky side of stickers and handing them out to kids for halloween.. There was also a bunch of people lacing apples and candy with drugs and cyonide. (my mom made us for years check our candy after we came home for pin holes and such that could have been made by a needle injecting something.)

yeah psycho's are everywhere.

That is a good idea to have a party. I went to a smaller school when I was younger and they had kindergarden thru 8th grade, we had like a carnival. Maybe you can get enough people together to have like a block or mile party in your area, bob for apples and all of the ole fashioned stuff because sometimes it is so cold you don't want to go out or just go trick or treating where the rich people live(generally safer there. You can sometimes go to the hospital and get the candy xray but it probably will not show if it has been laced with something toxic but if in doubt you might think of buying some candy from the store and exchanging it with what they got.
Oh yes, I live in the .U.S.A.

I think all those halloween poison candy and razor blades stories are all urban legends. Though it's still a good idea to look over your kids' candy and not let them eat anything unwrapped or homemade.

Halloween is my absolute favorite! I love it!

I agree with you to a certain point, I dressed up being an adult and I love seeing the cute little kids and I used to enjoy working at the school carnivals but their are some that like to try to ruin it for others and I am not hee to argue or look for a fight, I have worked at hospitals and have seen it happen.
All the best!
