I recently had the opportunity, courtesy of Book Sneeze, to review Illegals: The Unacceptable Cost of America’s Failure to Control Its Borders. I was aware that our country was struggling with the issues surrounding illegal immigrants, but not until I read this book did I realize the strain that some border states are under from […]
According to a nine year study, there are many visits to the ER on Halloween, and one of the top reasons is finger/ hand injuries. Fully 1/3 of these are lacerations. What can you do to prevent some of these injuries? For starters, don’t let children carve pumpkins. Adults who carve pumpkins should use specially designed […]

I agree 100% with you. A cruise would be awesome. We went on a Carnival Cruise in August and it was awesome. They are offering a 16 day Transatlantic cruise from Spain to Tx next November. I think that would be cool but 16 days sounds like a long time.
-
What a dreamy vacation! What I love best is taking your son to show him where his grandparent came from. That would be educational & amazing!
My family loves Cheerios, so I better go check this contest out! Winning a vacation would be a dream come true! ~hugs, Faythe @GMT -
Any vacation would be wonderful, as long as it was with my family. I am going to enter 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
-
I would ♥ to go to Greece – the sights there must be amazing to see in person.
As for the cruise – we just took a transatlantic crossing in April it was phenomenal, once we crossed the ocean we got to go to ports in Portugal, Gibraltar and Spain. I would do it again in a heartbeat!
-
Wow, I so love your dream vacation! I've never been out of the country but would LOVE to visit Europe. 🙂
-
My husband wants to go on a cruise, he has been on them before and loves them. I've never been on one, and am afraid I would be seasick the whole time. This does sound like an awesome vacation, though!
-
A Greek Island cruise. What a fabulous trip. And Santorini is my favorite island too.
-
Our would be either to Disneyland or Hawaii 🙂

Nowadays, it's pretty much a given for children & parents to exercise a good amount of common sense when dealing with holidays such as Halloween.
Which, being honest, is an unusual holiday to begin with. October 31st is nothing more than a whole day dedicated to the devil, if you ask me.
I hadn't thought about taking a cell phone with us. Thanks for the tip.
Great tips Penelope! Last year was our first year trick or treating but we always go with 2 adults – DH's SIL and her kids. And we always go to a neighborhood we know people live on.
We haven’t decided what we will be doing yet but these are some great tips.
I haven’t decided what or if we will be doing anything this year but these are some great tips.
Great tips! I’d love to host a Halloween party, but with my son’s birthday in Nov., Thanksgiving, Christmas… well, it just seems overwhelming. 🙂
