Welcome to the MPower Generations Grandparents Blog

Welcome to our grandparents blog. We invite grandparents to be our guest bloggers. Go to the Contact us page and enter your information and join us as a guest blogger.

This blog is to share our successes, our hopes, our dreams and our well learned knowlege about being a grandparent. Each day, we learn new ways to look at the world by participating in the lives of our grandchildren.

Sunday, some of our grandchildren were visiting with us after church. My six year old grandson said, “Mormor, do you want to be a ninja for Halloween?” I replied that I did not want to dress in a costume this year. He was not discouraged and proceeded to tell me all about his ninja costume. His excitement was contagious!

We love Halloween at our house. It is also our oldest grandson’s birthday. (We talk to our babies before they are born.  I tried to convince him before he was born to come on the 30th instead of Halloween, but undoubtedly he didn’t listen.)  So, we always have beautiful Halloweeen birthday cakes to celebrate the day. The whole country celebrates  on his birthday.  Then we participate in a church activity or trick or treating in their neighborhood.

As a grandparent, do you dress up? Do you give out candy? What are your family’s Halloween traditions? Please share them with us by making a comment.
