Why we love October.

How are we already in October, last time i looked we was just beginning summer.

We do love October though, the leaves changing colour and falling making a crispy path way for you, the cosy evenings snuggled under a fluffy blanket.

Most of all we love Halloween, this is our first Halloween in Cornwall. We are looking forward to making our house all spooky, and i think a trip to B&M is on the books for that one. 

We've always loved dressing up and the kids get so excited sorting out there outfits, we are not really sure if there are any events going on around us, but we have just discovered the perfect place to go pumpkin picking which is not open for a few weeks but we can't wait to go!

Another great thing we love to do as a family, spending hour's walking around the pumpkin patch finding the perfect pumpkins, playing around with the wheelbarrows. Then coming home and deciding how to carve them!

I also like to do a few Halloween themed dinners for the kids, just to keep in the spirit and all.
Last year i made mummy sausages, which is hot dog sausages wrapped in puff pastry, then baked in the oven, So i can't wait to whip up some spooky treats for them this year.


Some people hate this time of year, and we do always respect those that don't want to be bothered by the kids.

Here's a few snaps of some of the fun we have had over the years.

Have you got any plans this Halloween?
Do you have anything think you do every year?
