Wordless Wednesday (Halloween 2017)



  Every year even if we go to the same places Halloween is different.  The trunks are different at the Trunk or Treats, the festival events are different and even a trip though the neighborhood brings new experiences.  Regardless of all the candy the kids will remember what they were, who they were with and maybe how much they walked.  Candy cravings will fade and I can't wait.

    The hardest part of Halloween is not what candy to eat first, or which house to start at first.

It's what costume to wear!


The festivals are fun because they have so many activities and crafts to do.


Master Gardeners always have such fun crafts.  They glued different leaves on plates and the kids used their imagination to complete the picture. 


No lollipops for these ghosts. These were made from the Sweetgum Tree pods. 

Finale to our night was Trunk or Treat.  I can't say if there was a theme or not but, some of the trunks are so fun no theme is necessary.  


It's extra fun when people match the cars! Hello Mario where's Luigi?


This was my favorite!  Such minimal work but a huge statement!


We went to the circus.


We didn't touch the jellyfish.


Emoji's are a language everyone knows.


Special appearance by the Golden Girls.


An interactive trunk. I-Spy!


This was the most elaborate car. The starship enterprise.


4 pumpkins brought this yellow brick road together.


Pumpkins were not going to be showed up by some cars!

                

                

  This fun was the weekend before the big day so we had days of Halloween fun!  How did you spend you Halloween or last few days of October?  Did you attend a fall festival?

It's OK (by me)



  It's that time again. A time to reflect on who cares, so what, it's ok! I'm going to play along with airingmylaundry today as I tell you what items/events/activities  are OK by me.

  Find her latest It's OK post here.

  It's OK that I have waited for Grey's Anatomy to be back on tomorrow!

  Its OK  I indulged in Mozzarella sticks today from Sonic because they were on sale for $.99!

  It's OK that fall is finally approaching because I appreciate the beautiful trees when I catch a glimpse.


  It's OK that I am planning our trunk or treat events for Saturday. Everything always happens in one day. This weekend we went to a smaller trunk or treat.


 The kids really enjoy the decorated trunks.


So that's how I feel about that! Oh and Halloween is in 6 days and one child keeps changing his demands and you know what that's OK too!
