It's that time of year again!!!

Me and my ever growing family. We try and be festive and dress up with a theme. Not quite sure what we are going to do this year. We will see.
One of the MANY fun families in our neighborhood. We ALWAYS look forward to her fun costumes for her adorable family.

This is the soup table
******************************
For the last 4 years we have started a Halloween tradition with our neighborhood. We close off the streets and set up tables and chairs and everyone pitches in and brings soups, rolls, hot dogs, cupcakes, apple cider, homemade rootbeer, etc. We enjoy feeding the kids and ourselves and visiting with the neighbors. We also have 2 bounce houses and a movie outside and popcorn. After eating and visiting everyone takes their kids around the neighborhood and trick or treat, then whoever wants to come back and watch a movie and have popcorn. This year with it being on a Saturday and no work the next day & it's DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME (so we gain an hour), we may add a few more activities. We have a great neighborhood and the kids look forward to this tradition. I started putting together the invitations and will start delivering tomorrow. I love this time of year and the changing of the seasons, bring on FALL.

Something's wrong with that picture...no one has a coat on! I'm so jealous, it's snowing outside here right now! You have such a beautiful family!
