2. The only decoration I have is those gummy things on the door that say Happy Halloween.
3. Last year I think we got about 200.
4. I'm not a big candy person....
1 - I won't be dressing up, but Evan will be a dog, and our dog will be a bumblebee.
2 - No. I'm not a really big Halloween person. I have a pumpkin, but it still needs to be carved.
3 - Not sure! It's our first year in this town/neighborhood.
4 - Anything chocolate!
1b - I am not dressing up, but my kiddos are going as little duckies
2. We just moved into our new house about a month ago so we've been trying to get it settled on the inside - we'll decorate next year. But, I am putting out jack-o-lanterns
3. In our old place we NEVER got them. I was warned by the family that use to live here that they got about 300 kids last year - UGH!
4. Baby Ruth
1a - for the pgs: are you dressing up for halloween? what is your costume?
Not dressing up, no.
2 - is your house decorated for halloween? inside/outside/both? Nope, I don't even really have any halloween decorations. It's hard to find anything tasteful here.
3 - do you get a lot of trick or treaters? Last year we didn't get any, so we ended up sharing the bag of mini twix we bought. This year I didn't even bother buying anything. Halloween is so lame here.
4 - what is your favorite halloween candy? I used to love getting mini baby ruth bars and little packets of skittles.
1b - I am not dressing up, but DS is going to be a bear
2. ?Some decoration, ?more fall stuff. ?Kitchen reno going on so I don't want to have to clean it all
3. ?Not a single one last year
4. ?laffy taffy or peanut M&M's?
1a - for the pgs: are you dressing up for halloween? what is your costume? We have a halloween party Saturday to go to. I have no idea what I'll dress up as. DH suggested I wear all red and write Kool-Aid on my stomach and be the Kool-Aid pitcher from tv commercials. Bust into a room shouting "Oh, yeah!" LOL! We'll see...
1b - for the mommies: same as above, and also what is/are your kiddo/s dressing up as?
2 - is your house decorated for halloween? inside/outside/both? I decorate more for fall. I have about 5 pumpkins outside (yes I went overboard). I also arrange mini pumpkins and gourds on our dining room table, put up a fall like wreath on the front and back doors and put out other fall-like stuff. Autumn is my favorite time of the year!
3 - do you get a lot of trick or treaters? Depends on the weather. It's suppose to be 70 tomorrow (Beggers Night) so we'll probably have 70+ kids. DH counts every year.
4 - what is your favorite halloween candy? Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers. YUM!
1. Fenton is wearing a dragon costume, I am not going to wear a costume.
2. Didn't really get the chance to decorate this year.
3. Don't know this is our first year at our new place.
4. Hershey's Miniatures.
1-- I wanted to be a pregnant teen from FLDS and DH be Warren Jeffs, but we really don't have anywhere to go and I don't think the neighborhood kids would get it.
2--we have our front porch done with pumpkins, mums, wreath, not much on the inside, though
3-- this is our first year in this neighborhood, but there are A TON of kids. Our house is a little off the beaten path, so I'm not sure how many we'll get...? I bought 5 bags of candy, but we've eaten a lot of the good stuff out of them-- LOL! so I should probably get more...
4-- reece's cups and kit-kat
1a - for the pgs: are you dressing up for halloween? what is your costume?

1b - for the mommies: same as above, and also what is/are your kiddo/s dressing up as?
Pirate.

Moderate amount.

Hmm, I don't know. Maybe Reese's peanut butter cups.

1a - Yea.. we have a halloween party.. We are dressing all gangsta like and going as a babymamma and babydaddy. I am stuffing my belly and this is how we are telling our friends that I am pregnant.
2. Yup.. we have the inflatables in the yard and homemade tombstones.
3. We get a fair amount. I think we will get more this year.
4. The caramel apple lolipops. I bought 3 bags just for me!
1b- eli is dressing up as a monkey. dh and i are skipping the costumes this year.
2- we put three pumpkins out for halloween. still need to carve them. maybe we'll do that tonight.
3-we get a ton of trick or treaters. so many that we usually just bundle up and sit out on the porch rather than constantly opening the door.
4- oooohhhhh i love them all!
1a - for the pgs: are you dressing up for halloween? what is your costume? I'm not dressing up but I'm going to try and fit into my pumpkin shirt. I got it at Target a few years ago and it had this cute beaded pumpkin on the front....I hope I can get my big belly in it!
1b - for the mommies: same as above, and also what is/are your kiddo/s dressing up as?
2 - is your house decorated for halloween? inside/outside/both? I decorate inside and out but my decorations are more fall themed so I can keep them up through mid-November. I have a few Halloween things but it's mostly pumpkins, corn stalks, fall flowers, etc.
3 - do you get a lot of trick or treaters? We get a TON! Last year I ran out of candy (near the end) and had to hurry up and shut off the lights because there were kids on the way. I'm trying to figure out how much candy I'll need this year since it's on a Friday night so I'm sure we'll have even more kids than usual.
4 - what is your favorite halloween candy? This year I've been a big fan of Kit Kats but I like a lot of different candy:)

2 - is your house decorated for halloween? inside/outside/both?
Yes! Fall and halloween.

about 2 dozen
4 - what is your favorite halloween candy

Hi Gretchen!! Fun poll!
1a - for the pgs: are you dressing up for halloween? what is your costume?
No, I think I'll pass this year. I do plan on dressing up later when the kiddos get bigger and can appreciate Halloween to it's fullest! : )
1b - for the mommies: same as above, and also what is/are your kiddo/s dressing up as?
Lilly is going to be a chicken!
2 - is your house decorated for halloween? inside/outside/both?
We have some pumpkins that we are getting ready to carve. We also have a bowl that has a hand in it..and when you reach in to get a piece of candy it grabs you! It's fun. : ))
3 - do you get a lot of trick or treaters?
Probably not at all this year b/c we are renting on the second floor of a 3-family right now. We just sold our house and are renting until we find our dream house. We are on the corner of a main road and a nice residential neighborhood so I doubt we'll get any trick-or-treaters. I'll probably put a bowl out with some goodies in it while we are out with Lilly.
4 - what is your favorite halloween candy?
Oh, I love it all..but I think Kit Kats and Reeces are the best. Or it is great when you get full Hershey's with almonds candy bars. I used to freak with excitement when I got those as a kid!
1a - for the pgs: are you dressing up for halloween? what is your costume? DH and I live in a state that *gasp* has no In N Out so we're dressing up as In N Out employees; white clothes, red aprons, spatulas, and we got some of their paper hats the last time we were there. There are so many CA transplants here in CO that we'll give them a laugh.
1b - for the mommies: same as above, and also what is/are your kiddo/s dressing up as? DD is going to be a bumblebee
2 - is your house decorated for halloween? inside/outside/both? As of last night, it's decorated on the outside. DD's b-day is Halloween so we'll have the family over on Saturday to celebrate so we'll have some decorations up by then inside as well.
3 - do you get a lot of trick or treaters? A fair amount; the doorbell probably rings 20 times or so; I'd guess 50-75 kids in total.
4 - what is your favorite halloween candy? Reeses.
