Growing up in the country we didn't ever get trick or treaters at our house, so we would go to my grandma's house in Stony Ridge and hand out candy or go trick or treating with our cousins. I swear I can remember every single year like it was yesterday. I LOVED handing out the candy to all of the children when I got "too cool" to trick or treat. It was always something to look forward to! As I moved into my own house I held some Halloween parties and I now have several fun decorations...including a strobe light, a rock that makes creepy noises when you walk up to it and a few other light up things.
I'm not sure Joe really ever went to this extreme with the decorations as a child, but I can tell you all he is living out all of his childhood dreams now! He is SO funny, watching him get the strobe light just right so everyone knows to come to our house. He attempts to jump out of the bushes to scare the children and even yells at the people driving too fast down the street! The whole time we are passing out candy he says "I LOVE HALLOWEEN! IT'S MY FAVORITE HOLIDAY EVER!" It really is cute to see him so excited...he is my grown up 5 year old!
We also attended a few Halloween parties. Our neighbor's held a party at their house which was lots of fun! Joe and I both went as Robin Hood...sadly everyone called Joe Peter Pan, which I thought was hilarious, Joe not so much! My dad now refers to him as "The Pan"
Here are a few pictures from the party! :)
