Yesterday, not surprisingly, Halloween was on my brain! I thought, we should have a little fun in the BananaTude Group (and other groups for that matter)! So let's get started! Today and Tomorrow share you Halloween post on anything that speaks HALLOWEEN to you! Boo!

The very first blog I read this morning was by Kathy Streib . I swear, she must have gotten the memo about Halloween Fun! She is the Queen of Fun!

Fun Friday....Bagging It For Halloween

Next up is that scary guy in New Hampshire in a creepy clown suit Scott Godzyk ! This guy can weave creepy stories!

Top 5 of the Scariest Reasons you may never buy your dream home

Next up is our favorite graphic artists Sharon Tara ! She is infamous for her creative photos of her grandkids since they were babies. Be sure to check out her awesome Halloween photo of the kids this year. OMG the make up job she created is out of this world scary!

Wordless Wednesday - Beauty and the Beasts

And then of course, the King of Halloween Parties in the Rain is Kimo Stowell.

For years Kimo created all kinds of fun and different ideas for virtual parties for ActiveRainers. I miss that fun party Kimo! Here is one of my entries into Pet Costume Parade!

Hi Anna Banana Kruchten CRS, CRS, Broker, Instructor I'll have to put some thought into this.... not all witches have costumes....some are in their natural skin..... need to decide which witch is which....

Yes it's fun! I heard that CA has pretty much cancelled Halloween and Thanksgiving. Plus there is no shouting, singing or chanting? Sounds like a spooky movie to me! Don't you dare have any fun!

Hi Alexandra - Santa Barbara seems more reasonable. I did hear it was the Gov that put out these orders. And on the humorous side a few folks said they were going to hold protests on thanksgiving! Laughing is good for the soul!!

Chris Ann Cleland Halloween is on Saturday! How fun to have a 6 year old dressed up at a closing!! I had a title agent that used to dress up every year as a witch. Closings were so funny with her....clients loved it.

Well my mask is my profile pic....although that will be changed back to normal tomorrow so I will share here:

Our town only did a two hour trick or treat this year.... and we only got six kids. They were adorable and were very appreciative for the treats.

I did individual bags for safety reasons. I'm glad I only made ten bags and don't have too much leftover candy.

I had an exceptionally quiet Halloween. There wasn't a single trick or treater at my door. However, there were creative parents who started treasure hunts for their children, so there was fun in a safe environment.

Thanks for the Halloween redo! My Halloween was a non-event this year. Last year we went to a few places in a nearby town where we checked out a lot of costumed adults. Not this year!
