We don't celebrate Halloween. Jack sees it as a Pagan holiday, so we don't celebrate it. (We also don't do Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, or the Tooth Fairy.) He's done a lot of research on where Halloween originally started from and disagrees with celebrating it. I wouldn't condemn anybody for it. It's just something we don't celebrate. Actually, this last year was our first year not trick-or-treating. It went over pretty well with the kids. I've never heard of not wearing orange. That's a new one for me.
