I'm happy to say I finished reading the Vampire Queen series. I loved it, cannot wait for the next one! I promptly bought the Daughters of Arianne series. I look forward to reading it!<br />My husband grabbed 2 bags of snickers one for him and one for the kids - I think JoAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05506877820618987609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7754723103765990170.post-10181907476900296812010-10-30T11:35:33.103-05:002010-10-30T11:35:33.103-05:00I don't get into Halloween too much, although ...I don't get into Halloween too much, although hoping to go to one of the many events tonight!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08800860774489600896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7754723103765990170.post-30733155697997349592010-10-30T07:22:52.301-05:002010-10-30T07:22:52.301-05:00Joder, that's a great reason to like Halloween...Joder, that's a great reason to like Halloween, one I never really considered. But I guess that's part of it for the kids, too, when they dress as superheroes and princesses, etc. I can't remember what I went as when I was little, but I'm sure there was that element to it. Good observation! Do you want to share what you've dressed up as? (wink) Oh, I do like the end of that Joey W.

Instead, there are a couple places that have parties with booths that kids can go to, sort of like the events some malls have. Local stores and organizations all sponsor booths(games, quick small scares, snacks, etcBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16837126194644384743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7754723103765990170.post-51274981962086625122010-10-29T22:22:22.968-05:002010-10-29T22:22:22.968-05:00Hey Joey,

Makes me kind of sad. Trick-or-treating was always so fun growing up. Now there are so many people who turn their lights off.<br />I started giving handfulls to the kids & candy more to adult taste to the parents :) I love Halloween.<br />Foriokijohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12748250346175977135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7754723103765990170.post-45510722078923829882010-10-29T21:41:42.945-05:002010-10-29T21:41:42.945-05:00Hi Joey!

As a former World History teacher I loved Samhain because it is our most ancient custom dating back to the Druids and our most international custom with Egyptian mummies, European witches, Mexican Day of the Dead skeletons, Chinese ghouls, W.
