with her friends and her friends kids and we used our house as party headquarters and once we finished our 'block' we got in the car her friend and her drove us kids to the next block with our pillowcases. Our costumes were homemade by her and her friends, one year I was dressed as a bride and the kid I grew up with was the groom and his kid sister was our bridesmaid we were about 5 years old, I think she was three ! I remember it was 1970 because I was 5 and we had tons of candy that year and back to the house for chips and more candy than we could possibly eat, while our 2 moms sorted it all. Those were fun times. I couldn't possibly save the candy because my mom ate most of it before I could! LOL...
