Halloween

Here we go again. LOL Another attempt at blogging. Any bets on how long it'll last this time?

It's almost Halloween. Man, this year I've majorly slacked. My house looks like we've boycotted all holidays, aside from one stray plain turkey that is on the mantle waiting to be painted by my 6yo. Hobby Lobby 50% special waiting to make a school day a little more fun and holding out for any glimmer of hope that I might pull the rest of the fall decorations from the attic.

So, what are our plans for this year? The costumes have been acquired, but no plans have been made. I'm not feeling the trick or treating this year, though I'm sure my kids will drag me out to a few family members homes just to say they went.

However I did have a good idea that we'll see if I can actually pull off. LOL A fun filled day of no school, homemade cookies, popcorn, and Halloween movies. I've been making a list, trying to find movies that will hold both of my kids interests while not being too scary for the little one and too babyish for the older one. Thankfully we own Halloweentown 1 & 2 on dvd and those are the best Halloween movies ever, so we're covered for a few hours anyway.

I'll check back in on Friday to see if we actually accomplished a fun filled day or if my kids go crazy and don't cooperate.
Now, if there's anyone out there that actually reads this, what are your plans for Halloween? Are your kids dressing up and going trick or treating? I'd love to hear all about it!
