Halloween Celebartions

Today is Halloween! A universal holiday, but it is observed in different ways around the world. This year I am looking forward to the good old American way...candy, costumes, and parties!
Last year, my husband and I were in Poland for the holiday, visiting family. In Poland the holiday is celebrated on November 1, and it is a day of remembrance. So, last year we went to the cemetary and brought candles and flowers to loved ones that had passed. Keeping my husbands Polish traditions going within our home, I have lit a candle in remembrance of our lost loved ones.
For those that believe, this is said to be the time of year where the veil between our world and the otherworld is at it's thinest! However you celebrate, enjoy the day!
