We'll skip those yards, a lot of times. But we go in a very kid-friendly neighborhood, so we don't have to see too much of that.Jessica Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12365768876905444157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6566879757638048475.post-9165477512042465162010-10-29T17:28:27.263-07:002010-10-29T17:28:27.263-07:00Hi Nancy -

One year, everyone dressed as Bible characters.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Susan :)Susan J.

Once I heard what satanists do, I never wanted to have anything more to do with it. <br /><br />We went into a party supply store many years ago that had a plug-in display of a guy barfing in a barrel. The checkers had to stand hour after hour and see/hear that ugly mess. I've never gone back there again. Crudity does not impress me. <br /><br />I think harvest parties are fun, when everyone can dress up and play games and eat junk if they like. It's pleasant, not scary.Jeanette Levelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12898750484193832082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6566879757638048475.post-4846418337812407662010-10-29T13:33:04.010-07:002010-10-29T13:33:04.010-07:00I love this time of year, but mostly for the fall ...I love this time of year, but mostly for the fall beauty. I like dressing up in costume...that part of it is fun. But I don't have kids, so I don't really experience that part of it. We do hand out candy but it's tricky...I always either get way too much candy or not nearly enough!Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6566879757638048475.post-23895802036653466642010-10-29T12:43:12.930-07:002010-10-29T12:43:12.930-07:00This year we don't get to have our annual Pump...This year we don't get to have our annual Pumpkin Patch party, but we usually have it around Halloween. We take the kids on hayrides, they pick pumpking out of the "pumpkin" patch and decorate with stickers, fabric and paint. It's been such a fun, not scary, way to celebrate:) I hate walking into stores and having my 3 year old scared to death over some yucky character hanging from a display and moving when you walk by!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03925811510913201292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6566879757638048475.post-71972988026299065662010-10-29T11:12:45.658-07:002010-10-29T11:12:45.658-07:00I agree wholeheartedly!

We dressed up in nice costumes, no demons or witches, played games, ate lots of junk food, and had a lot of fun. We even got to take a bunch of candy home with us. Everyone agreed that it was more fun than trick-or-treating. I wish the trend would move in that direction instead of to the morbid and evil side as it seems to be doing! I just wonder how long it is going to be before Halloween becomes a generally dangerous holiday instead of a fun time for the kids to get candy. All the evil themes being fed into our kids have to be having some effect on them.The Book Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08742929699209017621noreply@blogger.com
