Trick or treat

Hello friends.

Today, I was taking a stroll down memory lane. Although I was never into Halloween, my husband and son were always very into it, and isn’t someone else’s enthusiasm contagious? My son says it’s his favorite holiday. I adored seeing them plan what to wear, get into making their costumes, walk around the neighborhood collecting candy, and join friends to share the experience—so many beautiful memories.

The thing I love about Halloween has always been the creativity. I love the costumes and decorating that goes into the holiday. In the spirit of the season, I put together a few things to inspire your holiday weekend and get you in the mood for Halloween.

Doesn’t the image above get you excited to enjoy the night? This weekend, have a pumpkin carving or decorating contest and play a game of bobbing for apples with some fun music. Set up an outdoor movie screen to watch a kid-friendly movie. Don’t forget to relax by the fire pit, make s’mores, and maybe have some adult beverages.

However, you plan to spend the weekend, get out, and enjoy trick-or-treat season.

Happy Halloween, everyone.
