We don't normally do a lot for Halloween. Our costumes are non existent, we haven't carved pumpkins in years, Hubby normally eats the goodies before the Halloween night, we don't watch scary movies and our decorations have been minimal.
Halloween was not big at home, I think my brownie unit might have had a Halloween party one year, but that was it. We did go to a few house parties back in the day, but nothing really since we moved out of the house 10 years ago! On Halloween night, we normally open the door for trick or treaters for about an hour or so (sometimes less, depends how much of the candy Hubby left).
For some reason unbeknown to me, I'm more in the Halloween spirit this year. On Sunday we'll hit up Costco for candy, so hubby doesn't have a chance to eat all before the kidlets arrive on Sunday evening.
There was a box of Halloween decorations hiding out in the garage, I added a few more and now the dining room is looking a bit more Halloweenish. I'm liking it.
Our tiny front yard could do with a little loving. Maybe some tombstombs, some lights, wee little ghosts hanging from the tree. I'll work on that for next year.
There's lots happening in and around Vancouver for Halloween. Obviously we're not going to be able to do everything, but I wouldn't mind going to one or two.
