Wow thats crazy. I was kind of expecting a few more in the same boat. We ended up turning the lights out at 8 with a final tally of 245 kids. There were still a few stragglers. It does get expensive. We get them all, parents asking for candy for there babies, one guy asked for some for his dog, others arnt even dressed up... I remember my wife asking one kid where his costume was and when he shrugged she said your not even trying. I live on a street dubbed Candy Cane Lane in the winter and its pretty much a given that you have to go all out with the christmas lights. Stringed across the streets and everything. I think that may draw some in for halloween too as people go nuts with it too. Its really annoying because for the entire month of december you get to stop and go, stop and go never getting above 5kph on your street after work when all you want to do is get to your house 5 driveways away, oh and no one pulls to the side of course. Something to look forward to now. ha.........hahaha.....ha... *sigh*
