  1. I love seeing all the children dressed so proud in their costumes. BTW, I think your link is broken to vote. I did vote the other day. I would love to help you out and vote again!

  2. I love finding costumes with the kids..we dont go to stores we roam the internet for hours until we find the perfect one..this year we have a steel devil for my 8 year old son, a black bionicle for my 6 year old son, and for my princess who is 3 ..I had a custom made tutu dress costume of the Queen of Hearts with matching wand and tiara.

  3. My favorite thing about Halloween is probably the decor. I really don’t know exactly what it is about it but it’s always been my favorite holiday. Probably because although you decorate, it’s not filled with the frenzy of gift giving and receiving. I also love the way my kids’ eyes light up when they think about getting all dressed up in their costumes.

  4. My favourite thing is the excitement that the kids get. Going to school and parading in their costumes if old enough and getting Halloween cupcakes. Collecting candy (although this year there are a lot of fun alternatives – that will last longer!) . The excitement of being out in the dark – a little scary, a little exciting….definitely seeing new anticipation and fun the kids have!

  5. I voted – had to google it and search – no biggie – but wanted you to know that your links just led to a smaller photo not to the contest….

  6. Think I’m already following on google friend connect as I already subscribe, follow etc – and it doesn’t give me the option. Hope this comment doesn’t disqualify me if I’m wrong!

  7. My favorite thing is the creativity of costumes and decorations on houses. Some people have the best imaginations.

  8. Easy answer…the best thing about Halloween is that it’s my birthday! 🙂
    I get candy, presents, and have fun parties! What a great day to be born! Thanks for the opportunity!

  9. I clicked on your links to give a thumbs up for Fading Flash (but I’ll be honest, I don’t know if I did it correctly)

  10. My favorite thing about halloween is seeing all the costumes. There are some really creative ones out there. I also love getting out with the neighbors.

  11. My favorite thing is seeing the face of the kids when they get the candy baggies that I make. They are usually surprised that it is not just one piece of candy. I put in candy and a little toy. I have so much fun, plus Bill & I dress up (as does Nano) and we sit on our porch, with all the neighbors on their porches… sharing food and wine.

  12. My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing little kids running around in their costumes! Unfortunately we don’t have our own children but just watching how excited the kids in our neighborhood get and how cute they look in their costumes is so much fun!

  13. main entry: my favorite thing is seeing what the costumes are on each child and seeing what designs were cut into the jack o lanterns because now days its not just your basic triangle eyes and jagged teeth like years ago so many creative designs now are seen. thanks

  14. Oh man, I have to choose ONE!? I guess if I had to I would choose the fact that it’s the only holiday you can beg for candy from other people. LMAO.

    My favorite part of Halloween is carving the pumpkins and putting candles in them! I know it’s pretty simple, but that’s the best part!

  17. Vote seems to be maybe 24-hours because the check mark was already pre-checked, this morning. But for the last two days it was not. …..hmm. Is it m-f only? Will check back later to find out if it unchecks. Of course, with it being so early, maybe I checked it in my morning daze and did not remember (giggle).

  18. I like being able to have fun among all the creepy, spooky trappings of Halloween. Please accept my entry. Thank you.

  19. I’m not a big fan of Halloween, but my favorites would either be the candy (to be eaten by ME) or the cute costumes that the little kids wear.

  20. I love helping the kids with their make-up and watching them get so excited as they transform. then getting dressed up myself so we can all go out together. but I think the best is seeing them fall asleep with big smiles on their faces and know they had a great time.

    My favorite thing about Halloween is seeing all the neighborhood kids in their costumes and watching their excitement!

    I love carving the pumpkins, it is most definitely my favorite part of Halloween! Discounted candy after the fact is pretty good, too! Thanks for the great giveaway!

  23. My favorite part is creating costumes for my kids. We have decided that we won’t buy store boughten costumes so we have to be creative. It’s a lot of fun to watch the kids get so excited.

  24. I love the kids deciding what to be. I usually have them come up with their own ideas on something we can put together ourselves. It’s fun to hear what comes out of their mouths!

  25. Thumbs up was fine today also, so I myst have been asleep the other day and did not realize I had clicked it.

  26. I love everything about Halloween! I love especially the decorating aspect- my creative juices get to flowing and my mind goes crazy with all the cool and spooky things I could do!

  27. Hmmm. Today, the thumbs up was already checked. Now I do wonder. It is 12:19pm (noon) and yesterday I clicked at 5-ish am, so not a 24-hour reset….Well I reclicked over the checkmark. So believe it did take.

    My favorite thing is the costumes!!! although now the boys won’t let me pick our their costumes, I love seeing them all dressed up!

  29. My favorite thing is going to the pumpkin patch and picking out pumpkins and then taking them home and carving them but watching my kids trick or treat is a close second.

  30. Halloween is the one holiday I really go all out decorating…my front lawn is starting to rival many haunted houses in the area.

  31. My favorite thing about Halloween is the atmosphere it creates for the night! The children, as well as some adults have a good old time being whomever they want!

  32. My favorite thing about Halloween is that I blend in with the scenery, LOL! I love all the decorations and getting to see all the kiddos express their creativity in their costumes – they can be so gosh darn adorable!

  33. my favorite thing is the kids getting dressed up&taking themtrick or treat&of course the deco

  34. I’d dress up in a costume every day of the year, but Halloween is the one time when no one’s going to look at me funny if I do. That’s what I love about it!

  35. barbara wright ♥

    My favorite thing about Halloween is how excited all the kids get. I can’t remember the last time I got that excited over ANYTHING

  36. My favorite thing about Halloween is the decorations. We love decorating the inside and outside of our house for Halloween.
