Halloween

In Germany Halloween isn't such a big event as in the USA, but our children loved to make scary decorations themselves when they were small. Like weaving spiders' webs with black wool and cutting bats out of black card board. For many years we had real and pottery pumpkins in our front garden and lit candles inside them every night for weeks. Now the girls are grown up and we don't have any decorations anymore. Although our daughter will have a Halloween party in our house on Saturday......well, I better lock myself into the bedroom. 

Some children go from door to door these days and I prepared some nice gifts for them - but no one came to our house.
