Halloween or Not –the Chief Blonde’s son loved to Dress UP!
My children loved to dress up for Halloween, especially my son, Ben. Pretty much any day of the year, you could find him roaming our house in a costume. He would always be figuring out what he could be next! But when it came to Halloween, he would plan his costume for days!

Halloween Giving, Sharing during Halloween
Every year our Church does Trunk-or-Treating. All the cars park in a circle, and the kids treat-or-treat (Trunk-or-Treat) out of the back of everyone’s decorated car trunks. It’s really quite fun and the kids get a monster kick out of it. Because this event is always in addition to “Regular” trick or treating, our church encourages the kids to come inside after the Trunk-or-Treating and donate all or a portion of their candy to a the Whaley Children’s Center in Flint, MI or to the Baldwin Center in Pontiac, MI. Our kids were sometimes a little hesitant to donate but once reminded that they would get more candy when trick-or-treating, they quickly got in the spirit.

Sharing a Kleenex Care Pack and some Peeps Treats With My Son!
Working On Halloween Night, Caring for Others
My son, the one in the pictures at the top, is training to be a Pharmacist. Even though he loves Halloween and dressing up for the holiday, he is working at his pharmacy on Halloween night so the others in the pharmacy who have little children can take their kids Trick-or-Treating. So to make him feel special about his choices, I am giving him some Halloween candy and a Kleenex Care Pack. I want him to know that I think his caring for his fellow workers is really special!

It’s so nice that you help share the spirit of Halloween with your son, even if he has to work it! Knleenex is a comfort all year round. PS- Our tennant has been the ‘Joker’ 4 years running now.

I like the trunk or treating idea! I always throw out most of my kid’s candy after they go to sleep, but this year I will look for someplace to donate it

I love those Halloween costume ideas! Typically, my kids like to be an animal of some sort each year. This year, I will have a zebra, bunny, and a cat. 🙂 The Kleenex care packs look great!

My son did cowboy several times. We never get any trick or treaters living way out in the country.

Chief Blonde – Not only does your son care about his co-workers he cares about helping people get better when they are sick. I bet he loves the special Kleenex Care package you gave him.
Love the animal costumes.

Great costumes! My boys’ are being your basic astronaut and ninja this year… hopefully next year they will pick something original and awesome! Thanks for sharing the ideas!

What a strapping young lad your son is, and I hope when he has kids, someday, someone will return the favor and work a holiday for him! PS. I am loving these little Kleenex Cares packs, a great concept!
Ellen Christian says
I miss the kids dressing up when they were little!
Lisa Weidknecht says
I’m so glad to see Halloween means more than candy to your family. It annoys me that the whole premise of this holiday is to take candy from strangers!!!
Jadey Sam says
Ohh he is very sweet!!
