Saturday Night Genealogical Fun

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun! 

Here is your assignment, should you decide to accept it (you ARE reading this, so I assume that you really want to play along - cue the Mission Impossible music!):

1) Think about your most memorable Hallowe'en - was it when you were a child (candy, games, carnivals), a teenager (tricks and treats), or an adult (perhaps a party)?

2) Tell us about it in your own blog post



Don't have a clue what years this happened but we had a neighbor Mrs. Evans, which I called Mrs. Heavens. She made the best popcorn balls you have ever tasted, so every year we made sure we stopped at the Evans house on Halloween. Too bad that stopped when people put needles and other bad stuff in homemade treats. The kids of today will never know the great homemade treats we got.
