You've Been Boo'ed!
October is upon us and so is this fun tradition!
Last year was my first October in Georgia, and I was still growing accustomed to the traditions of the South....the warmer weather, the SEC mania, the grits (okay, I'm still not used to those!). So imagine my surprise when my doorbell rang around 9 pm one night, and when I opened my door, all I found was a goodie bag filled with treats and a sign that said "You've Been Boo'ed!" I've been what?
I quickly learned that this fun tradition was a popular activity ...

What to Expect At Castle Blood
Win 2 Tickets HERE to the No Scare FAMILY Matinee OR date NIGHT!
When somebody mentions the word “haunted house,” a number of things come to most people’s minds: strobe lights, fog, Freddy and Jason, chainsaws, clowns, running away from people in masks, and the dark may be among them. Not all “haunted houses” contain all of these things, and you may be surprised as to how many typical haunted house stereotypes do not apply to Castle Blood’s Halloween Adventure Tours. We like to call it “a different way of saying boo.”
I can remember a few times when somebody waited ...
Owl-o-ween at the National Aviary
Owl-o-ween at The National Aviary
October 22 from 6 pm – 8 pm
Enjoy a ghostly but-not-too-scary evening at the National Aviary, with plenty of fun for children and adults. The evening will include a costume contest, storytelling, crafts, photo opportunities with Barkley, the Eastern screech owl, and appearances by the Aviary’s Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches, and loads of worms and crickets happy to not be on the birds menu, at least for the day. Trainers will also fly the Aviary’s owls in the FliteZone Theater, and halls will be ...
Super Easy Halloween Craft
My daughter recently started to notice all the Halloween and Fall decorations on display at the grocery store and gas stations and... well pretty much everywhere we go so we couldn't put it off any longer; it's time to start decorating. :)
If you're anything like us, you may be wondering how to decorate on a budget so we've started digging out all the old containers and old craft supplies that I tend to put away and forget about until they're needed.
This is what we ...
