I do! I decorate my Whole House with Pumpkins and Fall Candle Scents, That make my home feel cozy. I have a Collection of Vintage Halloween decorations and the Dept 56 Halloween Village that I collected for over 25 years. My Cousin Amy and I started a tradtion of baking something with Pumpkin every week till Dec 1st! WE have had it all Pumpkin Soup, Pumpkin brownies, Pumpkin Donuts, Pumpkin Bread, Pumpkin Fudge, ETC. We are always exchanging receipes and new ideas from friends, She lives in Loveland Co now, but we email every week and send pics of our Pumpkin Delights!

If the weather is nice, I usually celebrate the Equinox with a picnic in some beautiful spot in nature. Letting nature decide the decor, or if it's rainy, we pick someone's home and get together there. This year, I'm holding a bad autumn/Halloween themed poetry contest, we'll have black bean chili in a pumpkin, roasted harvest veggies, and other goodies. Usually we have a very relaxed get together with friends and family, sing silly songs, read autumnal poetry etc, and toast the beauty of Autumn with apple cider!

Yes! We put our fall decoration on the door (usually a wreath of some sort) and set out decorations in the house. We are also getting ready for our Halloween party (it's a big deal for us!!!)This year I am working on a Halloween tree and making little zombie ornaments for it. We set out offerings as well.
