I use to play Tag all of the time when I was a kid, and since I have a 3 year old at home, I play tag a lot these days too. I have to admit I have never played blog tag before. Phone tag at work maybe or even email tag with friends, but never blog tag. Well today I was Halloween Blog Tagged by my friend Marilyn @ http://www.chattywomen.com/alwayssunni. I never did like to be “it” for long, so I am going to quickly tag someone else after having a little fun with the Halloween questions.

1.What were your favorite games to play when you were a kid? Do you remember the rules? Share them here (bored kids grounded from video games will thank you):

I loved board games when I was a kid, especially Candy Land. And Candy Land sure fits with the Halloween Theme. Today
I love Monopoly, which surprisingly I never played until I met my husband. It took my awhile to learn the game since he was always cheating!

2. Did you go trick-or-treating when you were a kid? What was your favorite costume ever?

I always trick-or-treated as a kid. My favorite costume was Jeanie from I Dream of Jeanie.

3. How old is “too old” to go trick-or-treating?

You are never too old to trick-or-treat. Just a few weeks ago I went trick-or-treating at Walt Disney World’s Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party with hundreds of other adults.

4. Do you remember any silly or gross songs or rhymes from your childhood (like, “Greasy Grimy Gopher Guts”)? Share them with us!

I loved this song when I was a kid:

Oh I wish I were a little bar of soap,
For I’d slippy and I’d slidy
Over everybody’s hidey
Oh I wish I were a little bar of soap

Oh I wish I were a little mosquito,
For I’d nippy and I bity
Under everybody’s nightie
Oh I wish I were a little mosquito

Oh I wish I were a little bottle of pop,
For I’d go down with a slurp
And I’d come up with a burp
Oh I wish I were a little bottle of pop

Oh I wish I were a little English sparrow,
For I’d sitty on the steeple
And I’d spitty on the people
Oh I wish I were a little English sparrow

5. What is your favorite Halloween memory?

My Favorite Halloween memory was seeing my daughter’s shock and amusement when people gave her candy during her first year trick-or-treating. She was a black cat and she kept tripping on her tail all night, but nothing could slow her down.

Hopefully I will have even more fond memories this year, it will be the first time I take Taylor shopping for costumes, and we love to shop!

6. What goodies do you hope to find in your treat bag this Halloween?

I love anything gummy. Gummy bears, worms, or something gummy with a Halloween theme.

Now I am going to tag my friend Janet @ http://www.sheneedstoknow.com/booknook, because I don’t want to stay “it” too long. Be on the look out, it is Halloween time and you just might be tagged next.
