This year has gone by way too quick. I swear it was just summer break! I can not believe Halloween is already this Sunday. My family has already gotten candy for the trick or treaters in advance but not too far in advance. We probably will not have too many since there is less little kids in our neighborhood. I still need to figure out what I am gonna dress up as. Probably like a cowgirl or something like that. No wait I got it. I'll put on my shark onesie and be a shark. Alright costume done. I'll only have the costume on when I pass out candy to the kids. There are other things that I am gonna do this week in order to prepare for Halloween on Sunday.
The first thing is to watch some Halloween movies and episodes. I usually watch like Halloween episodes from old shows. One that I have watched is an episode of Bewitched. If you don't know what Bewitched it was a 1960s show about a women who was a witch and her husband who was not. The episode was about on Halloween Samantha's, the witch, husband, Darren had an important meeting. But he accidentally made his mother in law mad so she turned him into a werewolf. One Halloween movie I watch that is usually the day before Halloween is, It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. My family and I always watch it the day before Halloween, it's kind of a tradition. These are the only two I am gonna mention but I do watch more movies and episodes then this.
Next thing is carving pumpkins. We usually got to the pumpkin patch towards the beginning of October. We go to the orchard and get pumpkins and cider. carving pumpkins does not happen until the week of Halloween. This is to keep them from rotting. We were gonna carve them on Thursday but it got too busy so we did them Friday. I usually carve two pumpkins but this year I am only doing one. What I am carving is Mimikyu from Pokémon. I wanted to do something different. And I know the kids will love it.
The last thing is play the skeleton game. You are probably wondering what the skeleton game is. Well it is this old game where you try to build a skeleton by spinning the wheel. We play it before Halloween or on Halloween and put on Halloween music. Also the skeletons will glow in the dark if you leave them out in the light then turn off the lights. I'll put a picture of the game in this post. My dad always seems to win but complains when he lands on a stake. Once you get
