Dear Ethyl...
As you already know, I LOVE HALLOWEEN! Just clarifying! The Colton's were here with us for a month so we got to share with them. That was fun. It is a tradition that I make popcorn balls to give out to the kids. I love to do that. But... trunk or treat is Ruining trick or treating and hardly any kids come to my house anymore. I HATE TRUNK OR TREAT!! It has a purpose when Halloween falls on Sunday or if you are in a remote area. Neither usually apply here. I think it makes the kids lazy and they miss out on trekking for your treats and talking to your neighbors. It's good memories they are missing out on. Just sayin...
Anyway, we carved pumpkins and made popcorn balls and had dinner and trick or treated and watched Halloween movies... Fun night!

| Daniel is so big this year because he can carve his pumpkin all by himself |

Carving pumpkins is always fun.

| Jaci LOVES Halloween too! Actually, she loves any kind of party of craft or get together too!! She is so fun to have around and the little girls ADORE her! Ps... So do we!!! |
 |
| I remember making popcorn balls with my mom as a kid. I loved to put the butter on my hands and especially eating them when I was done! Good memories! |
 |
| We ended up with about 100 popcorn balls and only gave away about 25. Next year I'm only making 50! |
 |
The end product! Always a Halloween pencil and a tag with our name on it so people know where it came from

THIS IS ME! A rare beauty I know! My fallback costume. I am a hillbilly! I usually sit out on the front porch with a fire going and bluegrass music with my washboard. I have to dress up to hand out the treats...
It's Tradition! |
