Early in October, we were finishing up the kids' baths, and our doorbell rang. Claire was already dressed, so she and Daddy ran to the door and were surprised to find a plastic pumpkin filled with goodies, a sign and a poem - we'd been BOOed!
It's a fun tradition in our neighborhood - you put a sign on your door to alert everyone that you've received a Halloween treat, and you leave something for another neighbor who hasn't already been BOOed.
The next day we did some shopping and prepared two baskets to leave for neighbors. We all got a lot of laughs - especially when Will got excited and started to run off still carrying basket after we'd already rung a neighbor's doorbell.
We had a good time participating this year and enjoyed seeing so many "You've been BOOed!" signs appear on houses in our neighborhood!
