We were BOOed a couple of nights ago and FG was so excited she could barely contain herself. For those of you who haven’t heard of being BOOed (I hadn’t), here’s how it happened for us: about 9:30 pm there was a loud knock on the door and when we opened it, there was a large Halloween gift bag with lots of goodies inside. Among the candy, candles, pumpkin napkins, etc. was a note which stated that We’d been BOOed by the Phantom and needed to pass it on to two other people. There was also a sign to put on our front door so others wouldn’t give us a repeat BOO. We thought it was a fun idea and were only too happy to continue the BOOing.
As excited as FG was to receive the goodies, I think she was even more thrilled when she got the chance to BOO someone else. We let her pick out what she wanted to include in the bags and she re-did the notes herself. The funniest part was when she mapped out on paper how she was going to approach the house, then she practiced knocking loudly and finally strategized a retreat plan. She also chose to wear all black least someone see her. Very stealth. With these planning skills she’s going to either be in the military or a cat burglar.
Like mother, like daughter! She’s learning from the best.

That is such a good idea ~ looks like fun. I know how much FG likes to do things like that.

We were “Booed” for the first time three years ago (our first Halloween stateside). It has been a fun tradition since then. This year we will be the “The Giving Ghost” and attach a picture of a ghost (to hang on their front door) to the treats. Happy Halloween everyone and Happy Giving!
