Mums the word: 'I went pumpkin hunting and picked up a sad looking turnip’

Halloween is my favourite time of year! I absolutely love it and always have. My twin and I have our birthday on November 1st so it was a special time of year of celebration in our household. The fact that we could eat junk food two days in a row was worth celebrating alone.

The build up to Halloween was so exciting. We would plan our outfits for weeks and even had some of them handmade. Pumpkin picking and carving would start early.
