| Where did October go? How can it be over already. At least I can keep my decorations up until Thanksgiving. |
Just as trick or treating began, the rain poured down. The poor little trick or treaters were soaked but still so excited. They were saying Happy Halloween and Trick or Treat and oohing and aahing over their treat bags. They were all so well behaved and gracious. I made 125 treat bags and was sure I would have few visitors because of the rain. I was wrong! I ran out of goodies in just over an hour.
When you think about it, Halloween is such a special holiday. Since no one carols anymore, Halloween has become the only holiday where you visit strangers houses. Halloween gives you a chance to make memories that last a lifetime.

October always passes far too quickly. But it's never too early to think about next Halloween.
After 14 years we moved to a different house (my Victorian) on a busier road and I FINALLY had the Halloweens of my dreams - I dressed out that wraparound porch and I had lots of little trick or treaters. It was so perfect. But we were only there for 7 years and I missed two of the Halloweens.
Now I am back to no trick or treaters. I don't even bother to carve a pumpkin any more. I don't think I would know the day were it not for all of the commercials on TV.
Halloween is a special Holiday. It's all about the kids, its all about the fun. In many places there is not much door to door treating.
I love the costumes and the children's excitement.
Happy you had lots of little treater's.
It is growing here but it's still not especially big I'm afraid.
Have a great day!
Christer.
Its the generosity of people like you who make Halloween such a joy

Halloween is trying to come in here in NZ. But not many - we never have anyone visit being just that little bit rural.
Love Teddywitch and your home looks wonderful all decorated.
Love leanne
I'm positive your many amazing decorations created some vivid childhood memories for all your little visitors last night. It looks spooktacular!
You are a constant whirlwind of creativity & your home looks wonderfully inviting, inside & out. Now another month to enjoy before you start dreaming of how to outdo yourself next year.
We had quite a few trick or treaters, I had to fill my cauldron up twice. It was raining here too, could not keep any candles lit.
Only 364 days to go? It'll fly by!!
take care
