How was Samhain?

Our Samhain went Wonderfully! We had a bonfire, of course. We did a 2 night ritual. The boys learned again, as they do every year of Jack O'Lantern. Including why we use pumpkins now instead of turnips which were originally used for Jack O'Lanterns. The kids also learned what the meaning of dressing up, and going from house to house is about. That it too is like a ritual from long ago. People left out goodies for the spirits to pass their house by, hense the words Trick Or Treat.
It all led into All Souls day of the dead. Where they are educated and we do the march of forgotten souls, putting pumpkins on forgotten graves.
