Time For Halloween Parties !

I love the fall, I think I might even like this season better than the Christmas season. The beautiful leaves, the crisp air, and the temperature is just right to me. Around here almost as many people put up autumn decorations as Christmas decorations too...it is really getting popular.

It is also fun to throw Halloween parties or "harvest parties" as some call them. I love throwing parties for the kids, but I have always wanted to throw a party for the "big kids" too. I saw some really fun ideas at Celebrations.com, how awesome would a Halloween themed wine tasting party for the adults be. They give an interesting list of wines that would be appropriate for a Halloween wine tasting such as; "vampire wines" originally made from grapes grown in Transylvania, one that comes in a coffin shaped box, or even one whose name translates to "Cellar of the Devil", how fun.

There is even a part in their Halloween activities section that tells you how to have a "Green Halloween". Their Kids' pumpkin patch party looks really cool too. The pumpkin cake they show is adorable ... there are so many cool ideas on this site. I wish I would have found this site a few weeks ago. There is a cardboard chandelier decoration there that would have been great for a party she just had.
