Spook-tacular plans

Since I haven't posted in a while, I thought I would post about our upcoming plans for Halloween. The first year that Gracie was old enough (I felt) to go trick or treating, I wasn't sure what to do. Our church didn't really offer anything in the way of a fall festival, and I'm just not one to be a Mom who is up for the whole spook/fright side of Halloween. Plus, Gracie is terrified of anything in a mask. So fall festivals and things like that are more our speed.
Well someone told me about how downtown Prattville offers a service on Halloween where they close their shops and the owners/volunteers side outside and hand out candy. This is much more convenient in terms of keeping the children in one central location, and we're not going door to door to people's houses. So Tina begged me to let her dress Gracie up as a ballerina, and we took her to downtown Prattville.
Then we find out that First Baptist Church in Prattville puts on this festival with pizza, popcorn, and all kinds of games for kids. So that first year and then last year as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, Gracie's friends Noah and Avery from church accompanied us to the Halloween festivities downtown.
And now, this year, decked out in a Bumble Bee costume from Target and with her B.F.F. Maggie tagging along, we will be hitting downtown Prattville again. Her costume looks something like this one, only in Bumble Bee style. Although according to the comment posted on the website, I may be making Gracie try it on this afternoon.

The stuff downtown is actually happening Thursday night, because Prattville has a game on Friday. And then Saturday after Halloween is Gracie's birthday party!

What are your Halloween plans, if you have any?
