I Got Boo-ed!

No, it doesn't mean I did a horrible job at something and was heckled. Boo-ing is something we see every year this time in Marsh Oaks and it never ceases to excite me! This tradition is one more example of the great and giving neighborhood we call home.



If you aren't familiar with the "Boo" game, it goes something like this: You are sitting in your home after dark and hear the doorbell ring. When you answer the doorbell you notice there is no one waiting to greet you - just a pumpkin filled with goodies for your family. The pumpkin includes a note of instruction telling you that you must post the "boo" on your door for other neighbors to see, and, within a day, deliver two more "boos" to your neighbors. As you are driving the streets of Marsh Oaks you'll spot all the "boo" notices - seems that no one gets left out.

Our "boo" this year included a ton of candy, some halloween cups with pumpkin straws, and some party napkins. I'm not going to divulge what our return "boos" contained, lest the reader recognize their "boo-er", but I can tell you that if they listened hard enough they may have heard my daughter giggling around the corner!
