come to your house on Halloween. Outside of Utah it makes a lot of sense--kids get to see their friends from the ward who live in different neighborhoods in their costumes etc. To each their own.

I'm not a "put my foot down" kind of guy, but I'm about to. Am I wrong?

Sounds like you are an introvert.

If you’re full, go ahead and put the food down.

Depends on how old your kids are. If my kids were older I wouldn’t care but

If you put your food down between bites you'll eat less

That is why our ward council always refused to do one whenever it was brought up

Ward parties are good though. It is easy to make the trunk or treat a fun party.

Joe Banks

I disagree. Trunk or treat is a ward party, games, chilli/cornbread cook-off and

This is easily our most-attended activity by nonmembers and less actives.

I never said don't do a chili-cook off, costume party, or have a ward activity.

kansascougar

That makes even less sense

Enjoy them then. They'll hate you soon enough and you'll wish you had more

It seems you have forgotten the true meaning of Halloween.

Do your kids get excited? If so, put on a smile for them. If not, simply abstain

What's the point of a Trunk or Treat when the kids are already going Trick or Treating? I always thought those were done

RootieBoy

it's become a general ward party in most places. we have an annual chili cook-off before the candy rush.

Dressing up on Sunday? Sacrilegious. That takes care of Sunday. Driving to Sandy

If you don't want to go, just don't go.

I always go and smile and the kids have a good time.

I would skip #1 and #2. Trunk or treating is lame.

I'm almost sure trunk-or-treated isn't geared towards your enjoyment.

Our ward finally decided to not do a trunk or treat. We are doing a ward party but no trunk or treat this year.

Yes, especially since none of those sound like they are even costing you a penny

Yeah so I'm going to all 4. My kids are way too excited.
