Just wandering if anyone has any fun Halloween plans this year. Nothing beats a night out at the haunted houses. We will be hosting our annual Halloween movie horror-thon the Sunday before Halloween. We get started at one pm and start a new movie every two hours with several friends coming and going. The menu includes nachos. hot dogs, and of course plenty of popcorn:lol: I have been getting the home theater ready as this is one of our highlights of the year. If anyone has any fun plans or traditions pleasre share with everyone. http://good-times.webshots.com/alb​um/471308652kZfIyx (external link)

We go to Kennywood Park, an amusement park by Pittsburgh. They have several "haunted houses" set up and you can go on most of the rides. Nothing like riding a roller coaster in the dark while it's freezing outside!

I'll be the official photographer for a Halloween "prom" party. It's a pretty crazy crowd so it will be a lot of fun. I'm setting up a creepy backdrop to take the "prom" photos, and then I'll probably just shoot some candids of the crowd.

just gonna hang out in front of my house with a hose and let those little candy grubbing kids have a big dose of high pressure h2o.

Ok, just kidding. I have so much to do before the big day. I got to bag up the broken glass, get out all the razor blades... Wait. NOT funny.

Seriously my kids fav day is halloween. I am taking them on a candy shake down cruse of the neighbor hood, then its hiding in the bushes with a horrible mask and jumping out at people as they come on my property! Its so much fun. :):)

We have a costume day at the school, sponsored by one of the service organizations. Last year, the students came up with some really innovative costumes. I dressed up in one of the cheerleader's uniforms last October, so this year I think I'll wear one of the outfits from the dance team. Got to keep those students guessing. They never know what I'm gonna do next! :)

And for those who dare, here is last year's costume:

Ahhh, guess I'll break out the terminator 1,2,3, movies. Really I'm taking a vacation day and will go to the school activities during the day and plan to pass out candy and take the kids around the neighborhood.

My Halloween is already going strong, been to Knotts Scary Farm in Anaheim and the Queen Mary's Halloween deal. On the 31st, we are dressing up as Zombie Cowboys and Girls and taking the niece out trick or treating, thank goodness I have a niece, I still love trick or treating :)

I still try to emphasize to my kids, the more houses you hit the more candy you get! Minus my 20% protection fee.

I have a party to go to on Saturday. I will be dressed as a 70's porn star. That is, as long as my prop from naughtythings.com gets here in time, lol.

Ehm, as this is a family forum I'm gonna bite my tongue and not ask what kind of prop you're awaiting.
