Welcome to my stop in the Howl-O-Ween Giveaway Hop! Halloween is one of our favorite holidays. It’s so fun to dress up, decorate the house, and take the kids trick-or-treating. I’m not sure what my Halloween costume will be this year. Do you dress up? Since I have a new baby, I’m planning to stay home and pass out candy to the trick-or-treaters. We live in a new town now, and we actually live somewhere that gets trick-or-treaters. I’m so excited!
We started decorating October 1st. Check out our awesome new decoration:

I can’t remember ever dressing up for Halloween! We were certainly never allowed to go trick or treating as children. I usually celebrate the Samhain Festival as I live in rural Ireland and light a candle to bring light to the dark.

Kay Garrett
Not sure if we are dressing up for Halloween this year or not yet. We have a Halloween event at the Ozark Folk Center. Last year I went as a Scottish terrier and hubby was a hobo clown.
Do enjoy Halloween and seeing all the little ones getting so excited and dressed up. With not having children, we love seeing life through other’s kiddos. Halloween is the best glimpse we have because it’s an open type holiday where it’s expressed in the open for everyone to see. Love Christmas but most of the celebration is more family oriented. It’s not like you get to experience a child opening a present since it’s usually in their own home.
