Don’t let Halloween sneak up on you!


Halloween is a joyful celebration where little girls can transform into princesses or superheroes, and little boys can become firefighters, police officers, or caped crusaders. Adults can embrace the magic of Halloween by stepping into new personas and characters, becoming someone else for the night.

Halloween weaves a spellbinding tapestry of eerie thrills and enchanting whimsy, transforming one night into a magical realm of spooky delight.

Every year, we delight in donning whimsical costumes and diving into the Halloween festivities with our grandkids, creating cherished memories filled with laughter and spooky fun!

From transforming into Star Wars Characters or Sandy and Danny from "Grease" we go trick or treating through the neighborhood with them until their little Trick-or-treat bags overflow with sugary treasures.

Every year we enjoy spending this night, sharing giggles, treats, and the joy of togetherness in our disguises.

We serve fun but a little creepy hors d'oeuvre and snacks to the delight of the littles. Every year our wickedly fun parade of treats and sweets gets more bewitching and we think more fun than the last. Our drinks include frozen eyeballs, spiked cider brewed in booze-ful cauldrons with dry ice for a chilling fog. These spook-tacular treats keep the Halloween spirit hauntingly delicious!

And every year I pull out my favorite little Halloween figurines (see at the top) and sometimes I am able to add a few. This year I found these super adorable tiny little ghosts roasting marshmallows around a flickering faux campfire tea light with a ghost dog and cat. It's like a tiny Halloween campfire, whimsical but spooky, tale come to life! I just purchased them this year and was so happy when they arrived. I so LOVE THEM. They make my heart happy!

"November is the month that tucks summer into bed and pulls the blanket of winter halfway up. Days shorten like candle wicks, leaves surrender in slow-motion applause, and the air smells of woodsmoke and cinnamon. It’s a pause between the blaze of autumn and the hush of snow: crisp, reflective, and quietly preparing for the long night ahead." Author unknown. Things to Do in November Chase the last warm-ish days: Find a trail, kick through leaf piles, or go on a scenic drive to see fall...
