Dress as whatever you like,

This is a fantastic, treat filled night,

Pumpkins carved, candy bags ready,

Little hands fumble for candy, dragging bags to big to hold steady,

Mythical creatures are normal on this day,

From fairies to ghosts hip hip hooray!

Half the fun is trading sweet treats after the day,

is long gone,

on a sugar high until the first sun rays of dawn,

On Hallow’s eve or Halloween I dress up, grab a pillowcase and head outside with my siblings and friends. For hours we will collect candy, and then come home and sort it all. Then the trading begins. We all haggle over Hershey’s and Sour Patch kids while Almond joys are abandoned in the “community pot”. All in all, Halloween is awesome.

For activity four of week two I went to Skylah’s blog and read her poem on baby koalas. I left the comment : Hi I’m Tallula and I love your poem about baby Koalas. Are they your favorite animal? I asked a question as well as a compliment.

My favorite family memory to date is the gingerbread house party my family hosted last year. We invited friends and used the rest of our Halloween candy to decorate the houses. It is a memory I hold close.
