During the first year of our life in Monterey, our friend Tina started the "Boo-ing" tradition around our neighborhood. After she moved, we decided to continue the trend last year and this year, since we are in a new place, we brought it around again.
The premise of the 'Boo' is to put together two baskets of Halloween goodies,
Pick a two neighbor's houses to drop the treats off (along with the printable Boo poem and Ghost),
Bring the treat to the door

Knock, and hide!

And then the next Boo-er will need to pay it forward by putting the ghost on their door and bringing two treats to two different neighbors.
I love seeing the ghosts popping up on doors all over our street and am so happy Tina introduced this fun tradition to us!

I love boo'ing!! It's so fun, I'm going to start doing this in our new neighborhood. We had the best time doing it in NC.
I've never heard of this---sounds fun!
Sounds like so much fun! Once we move out of our apartment and into a neighborhood I totally want to do this!
That sounds so fun! I've never heard of that!!
Keeping the tradition alive for year #2 here as well! :)

How cute! It's like the pay it forward of candy!
OH my gosh that is soooooooooooo much fun!!!!!!! I love it!
Fun, fun, fun. I wish we had young neighbors to do this with...most of our neighbors have jids my age, so no young people to share in this awesome tradition.
Totally doing this when Shelby is older!
I feel like we started this in Auburn in the dorms... and we do it every year! I need to get on it and get some boo's out! Love your pictures!!
Such a cute and fun idea!
What a cute idea!!! Love the pic of the kiddos hiding behind the tree. So sweet - I might have to remember this one for when mine are a bit older :)
Adorable idea! I believe my brother kids may have done this before.
This is such a cute idea!
We did this all the time growing up, so fun!!
I've never heard of this! When my kids get older, I just may have to do this too!
I am in love with this idea!!! So darling!
Oh my goodness...I forgot about this tradition. I've never done it myself, but now it's on my bucket list for next October. I know Lewie would love it!!! How cool that most of your neighborhood participates and joins in the fun!
