Getting ready for Halloween

This last week has been hectic with school work and volunteering at my son's school for his Fall Festival. Now that the Fall Festival is over, I went out and got my Halloween stash for Monday night. I grew up going out to get candy and my older two dressed up and went out to get candy. That's all that Halloween was about to my husband and I growing up. I love to see the little children in their costumes and the excitement they have on their faces when they get the good stuff. I do not buy cheap candy, only candy I would eat. I always make special baggies for the kids in our neighborhood or friends that bring their children by. The baggies have extra candy and a homemade item. Last year I made white zombie pretzel rods and this year I am going with good old fashion pop corn balls. Next I will start decorating for Christmas! My favorite time of year, but my husband said I have to wait until the day after Thanksgiving! Bummer!!!

  2. I think its great that you enjoy and put so much effort into the holidays. I only buy candy I would actually eat too and unfortunately I usually do! I also think its great that you take the time to make a homemade item to give out as well, not many people do that anymore. Have a Happy Halloween!
