We are dressing up at work. For the morning. Then judge costumes.
We are having our morning coffee break together and donating a toonie. The toonie goes to a charity/food bank.Last edited by Shwa Girl; Sun, Oct 30th, 2016 at 05:26 PM.

I work in a school, so I will be dressing up. Then I get to go to the scariest place on Earth.... the dentist for a root canal.

^ LOL, I agree about the dentist!
We'll be at home, giving out treats - I love to see all the kids and their costumes!
I miss taking our son out - used to have a blast doing that.
Love FB because we can see our extended family and how they are dressing up, and how their kids are, too - one great benefit of FB when family is far away!

We do a mixture. We have already attended two children's Halloween parties over the last two weekends. It has been raining a lot all day today, the only day of bad weather in the forecast. We'll take all three of our young children trick-or-treating to our neighbours. Dh will stay home with our twins and hand out candy while I take our son trick-or-treating in our area.
Our 4yr old son is has a Lightning McQueen costume. Our 15 month old twins are a butterfly and a bumble bee. I paid a total of $10 for the three costumes, which I bought at a second hand store in town.
edit: It was misting the entire time that I was trick-or-treating with our son. My phone was in my pocket, which claims that we walked 5km. Our twins took turns napping with Dh, so they never did visit our neighbours while dressed in their costumes. We had a great time. We had way more kids trick-or-treat our house this year vs last year. I also learned a different nearby street that isn't as busy, which was nice to trick-or-treat at.Last edited by Angela273; Mon, Oct 31st, 2016 at 11:17 PM.

no candy handouts here this year. Lights will be out, path is blocked with recycle bins and a sign saying " please do not wake the sleeping shift worker ". Will have to hunker down in the basement with the 2 dogs so they don't bark at every costumed kid walking by on our street.
Halloween used to be such a joy! So much excitement when our 3 kids dressed up....sigh.
babies teach us acceptance

We have very kid-friendly subdivisions near us, but we're on the main drag (traffic) and every house on the street is spaced out and has a precarious set of frost-heaved steps up the steep hill...so we don't get any kids. I did see a guy in a sequined matador outfit and huge velvet sombrero buying limes at the grocery store though

We live too far from town to have visitors.
Instead the town centre is cordoned off and all the shops open late for the day. It's a family event where the kids get candy and the adults mingle.If it's a weekday it's 3.30-6.00pm. Week-ends tend to be 2.00-600..
You get some families set up tables and hand out treats as well as shops and local businesses. Sometimes, the political parties have stands too, though that has only happened once or twice.
P2 and lilP have tomorrow off as the high schools have finished their mid-terms.
Short answer : no Long answer : NOOOOOOOOOOO!
