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?

Halloween Accessory



  Every outfit has its accessories.  Sometimes it's jewelry.  Maybe a purse, definitely shoes are a must but as we approach Halloween in addition to the candy and costume a candy collector is a must.  I'm not talking about bellies or mouths of monsters or little ponies, ninjas or Moana's.  I'm talking about the vessel to get your candy home.


  A bag!  For older children this is the perfect item to carry the loot.  A bag has handles that are more comfortable when the load is heavier and a bag will definitely aid in ensuring every piece makes it home.

  My daughter was so excited to receive a new bag for her trick or treating experience but way more excited to get to style it .


  She loves to color and design so coloring was right up her alley for a nice afternoons entertainment.


  She's pretty good at starting a job and staying there till it's finished!

  She loves how her new bag came out.  She also loves that it glows in the dark.  That's a nice treat.  Our routine doesn't keep us out too late but, fall does make it get dark sooner.   I love that it's durable and will hold the candy.  The glow part is fun but I also like that she will be able to use this bag again next year!


  The canvas bag came with 3 markers to color the bag.  It has easy to follow instructions.  No need to wash before coloring so your bag will be done quicker!

  Bags even come in two different colors but still offer the same great fun and glow in the dark magic!


  Check out the special code for a discount!  There are also other items available your child can color too!
