Happy Halloween! 2021

My kids are so excited to go trick or treating tonight – hopefully we can nap this afternoon beforehand because I’ve been up since 6am because they woke up excited! 😅 We bagged up candy to pass out tonight (I have 120+ bags right now…might make more), we decorated some pumpkins – no carving this year because the pumpkins at the grocery store are HUGE and expensive and we didn’t go to the pumpkin patch this year.

Can I say…going to the pumpkin patch in Hawaii where it’s like 86 degrees out is not fun? It’s always a sweat and dust fest – I’m sure it’s different now with the pandemic, less people? But…maybe next year. One year my son went with his class on a field trip to the pumpkin patch and got to bring home a pumpkin. It was infested with worms…😭 it was terrifying for me since I was the one who cut the top open. GAH!!! Talk about getting spooked on Halloween right? Since then he is wary about carving pumpkins LOL. But yes, our carved pumpkins rot so fast in this heat…

This year I said here ya go, draw some faces on this mini ones:

My sister, nephews and mom will be coming over and we will be trick or treating around the neighborhood. Then we will come home to pass out candy. We usually leave the bowl out for people take to candy while we are gone. My daughter is going as an axolotl, my son as an Among Us character, I think I’ll just throw on a beanie my mom crocheted for the kids which is supposed to be a Pikmin character or…we shall see, I can always wear the witch hat that is in the costume bin lol.

If you celebrate, I hope all of you have a safe and happy halloween!! If not, I hope you have a lovely day/evening as well. 🙂
