    Thought it might get us in the spirit!

    1. Is your house decorated? Nope-all of our Halloween stuff is packed away since we  originally thought we'd be moved by now. It was a PITA trying to find DD's costume buried out in our POD!

    2. Will you/did you carve pumpkins? Not sure-we have 5 pumpkins, but again the carving set is buried in the POD-depends if we feel like digging it out!

    3. Do you roast pumpkin seeds? If we carve pumpkins, definitely!

    4. Are you going to/hosting a party this year? If so, what will you and SO dress as? Nope!

    5. Are you taking LO to any Halloween events/parties? We took her to a town party this past weekend. Might take her to strong museum this weekend. I wanted to get to the zoo, but that didn't happen. Her daycare will have a little parade/party on halloween

    6. Do you get a lot of trick-or-treaters? It's hit or miss-some years we get tons, others barely any

    7. Favorite Halloween candy? I love all candy pretty much-reese's cups, snickers, dots, etc....like them all for different reasons!

  • 1. Is your house decorated? Does a pumpkin on the porch count?

    2. Will you/did you carve pumpkins? I will, although I'm allergic to the inside of the pumpkin so it won't be fun.

    3. Do you roast pumpkin seeds? Nope.

    4. Are you going to/hosting a party this year? Nope.

    5. Are you taking LO to any Halloween events/parties? There is a Halloween party at her daycare so I'll take her to that.  We might walk to a few of the neighborhood houses as well.

    6. Do you get a lot of trick-or-treaters? Not at all :-(

    7. Favorite Halloween candy? I'm not picky...as a kid I always liked the crunch bars.  Halloween was about the only time I ever got snickers.

  • 1. Is your house decorated? yes

    2. Will you/did you carve pumpkins? we have 3 pumpkins on the porch and will carve them this weekend

    3. Do you roast pumpkin seeds? absolutely!

    4. Are you going to/hosting a party this year? If so, what will you and SO dress as? no parties for us and no dressing up.

    5. Are you taking LO to any Halloween events/parties? We usually grocery shop Saturday morning at Wegmans, so I'll probably have them wear their costumes.  I think their thing is 11-3.

    6. Do you get a lot of trick-or-treaters? maybe a couple dozen.  This actually seems like a ton to me because I grew up in the middle of nowhere and the most we'd ever gotten as kids was 3 kids.

    7. Favorite Halloween candy? Almond Joy and sadly I had to re-buy candy because I ate all of the Almond Joy and then started in on everything else.

  • 1. Is your house decorated? Not specifically for Halloween but for fall. Pumpkins, scarecrows etc.

    2. Will you/did you carve pumpkins? We did this last night. I really have started to enjoy doing it. I am going to get another pumpkin to try another! I just did a pattern of a witch stirring a brewing pot.

    3. Do you roast pumpkin seeds? Yes but I need a good recipe.

    4. Are you going to/hosting a party this year? If so, what will you and SO dress as? Saturday we are going to a friends party. It's for kids so we aren't dressing up but she will be a bee. 

    5. Are you taking LO to any Halloween events/parties? She has a small halloween party at her gym class on Wednesday, Friday is the big YMCA party that we are taking her to. Then Saturday is a friends party. She has 2 costumes, a bee and a dalmatian.

    6. Do you get a lot of trick-or-treaters? Yes, it's non-stop for 3 hours. We get hundreds of kids. It's pretty crazy.

    7. Favorite Halloween candy? 100 grand bars. I can NOT be trusted around them. They are forbidden candy here. My second favorite has to be PB cups.

  • 1. Is your house decorated?  Yes. We have orange lights on the deck outside along with a few other decorations. Inside we have a lite-up pumpkin in the window, a candy corn garland, a ghost and a black cat on the walls, and some candy dishes around the kitchen and living room.

    2. Will you/did you carve pumpkins?  Yes, we will. Probably this Friday.

    3. Do you roast pumpkin seeds? No.

    4. Are you going to/hosting a party this year? If so, what will you and SO dress as? Nope, no parties for us.

    5. Are you taking LO to any Halloween events/parties? Just ToTing with friends. I thought about taking them to a parade but we haven't decided yet.

    6. Do you get a lot of trick-or-treaters? I have no idea. We ToT in a different neighborhood with friends and we just leave out a bowl of candy. It is always gone when we get home, but we are on a main road with no sidewalks...so we could have one kid that takes the whole bowl!

    7. Favorite Halloween candy? I love Milky Way, 3 Musketeers, Tootsie Rolls, and Starburst.
