I don't like it).<br />I was thinking, actually (a dangerous pastime, I know), and can we spend Halloween at your house next year? Because I've never actually done any sort of trick or treat thing. I want to see what it's like. YOU MUST SHOW ME.<br /><br />OOoh. I bet you all look so cute in your costumes wandering around the neighborhood giving out those poisonous cookies that you like to make. :)<br />-AmarisAmaris https://www.blogger.com/profile/10325468716241431375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-65176321350814479822017-11-08T12:27:45.469-08:002017-11-08T12:27:45.469-08:00Thank you, Abby!

I loved dressing up for ancient Egypt when I was younger. :)<br />Thanks for the comment!<br />-AmarisAmaris https://www.blogger.com/profile/10325468716241431375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-48527687051053795562017-11-08T12:25:56.475-08:002017-11-08T12:25:56.475-08:00Well thank you!

But I agree with you on the whole "Satan and death" thing. <br />My family has always dressed up and gone trick-or-treating. We stop going at 12, but honestly, that's when the best fun begins. The teenagers get to stay home and "hand out candy"; which in reality means watching a scary movie like Sherlock Holmes and eat most of the candy ourselves, since we get like 4 trick-or-treaters. We still dress up too, for the fun of it. What other day is it acceptable to do your hair crazy and put a ton of colored makeup on your face? <br />In our neighborhood, it's mostly older people and a few young children. The older people love it when our family comes by, because they love the kids and how many kids our family has. They think we're novel, but they're very sweet. tessa leigh https://www.blogger.com/profile/01533925453357795509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-65297362985041287532017-11-07T06:18:21.335-08:002017-11-07T06:18:21.335-08:00My thoughts precisely!

My family celebrated Halloween with pumpkins/jack-o-lanterns, scarecrows, and trick-or-treating. Growing up, I've been a medieval princess, a pioneer, and Cleopatra. For the college parties this year, I just used my 18th century reenacting clothes. :)Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815787419344153905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-52398013642380589192017-11-07T06:08:02.146-08:002017-11-07T06:08:02.146-08:00I really liked this post!

(I was a cat this year btw, makeup was crazy fun!) And the candy! I personally don't like the fruity candy, like gummies, but give me a chocolate bar, or ANYTHING Reese's...And honey...My Halloween is made! I do not agree with the celebrating of death! I also do not like all the evil costumes and evil decor. But I too like enjoy the little ghosts and the adorable bats! So...My point is...Will I give a fall (NOT Halloween) party? Yes, I will! Cause dressing up and eating fall food (#ZombieFrappe is the BEST!!!) is what Halloween for a Christian means. Y'all with me?

Dress-up is always fun, as long as it's not super evil, because then it just doesn't make sense anymore. :P <br />I always liked the princess costumes myself. :) <br />-AmarisAmaris https://www.blogger.com/profile/10325468716241431375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-91696447422253382712017-11-06T18:43:31.586-08:002017-11-06T18:43:31.586-08:00Oh, yes.

Well, I do like chocolate as long as it's dark and flavorful, but I have to say my FAVORITE is probably a gummy, or starburst... I don't know that I have a favorite, actually. I really like fruity flavored candy for sure, though. <br />I like gummies, too. :)<br />-AmarisAmaris https://www.blogger.com/profile/10325468716241431375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-47595812981169282762017-11-06T16:52:07.957-08:002017-11-06T16:52:07.957-08:00Yeah, that is basically my feeling.

I like the 6 year old version (except the 6-years olds who where masks that scare this grown-up, shame on those parents) of Halloween: dress-up and candy.Livia Rachellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755623391278276925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-8151551614609720942017-11-06T10:32:19.080-08:002017-11-06T10:32:19.080-08:00We agree!

But not gross bloody stuff or evil stuff or Halloween stores. *bleh* <br />By the way, what is your favorite candy?
