Halloween and stuff

We went to a ward trunk or treat on Friday, our first that we have ever been to. It was pretty fun and amusing; they boys got a large amount of candy, a good portion which boils down to me, as they don't like it. The same deal with trick or treating yesterday.

I got thinking about this as I did last year. The more I think about it, the more it doesn't bother me who goes trick or treating, as long as they are in costume and are polite. I was thinking today that I would dress up and bring my own bag, but then I thought that I don't need to be greedy, as I get plenty from the boys anyway. I hope that carry's on as they get older; as it is now, they are very good to share. Not only that, but I get the 3 boy multiplier. :)

We went basically the same route, which includes part of the path that I take to walk to the bus. This is down a back street and along a nice trail between two houses, out to 35th south. There are a few good friends out there that we visited.

I taught primary again today, this time to CTR 6. I have recently been given a second calling on top of 11 year old scoutmaster: I am now also scout committee chair, which means in part that I have had the unenviable task of coordinating rechartering and friends of scouting. I have been really torn about friends of scouting, bothered somewhat by what I see as some corruption with the national level (for instance, it bothers me that one of the numbers for a uniform costs $1).

Anyway, just a bunch of somewhat cohesive thoughts going on for me.
