I am excited about it too.  It's still really hot here and not fall like at all, but I did put up some indoor fall decor, and I've been burning the fall scented candles for a couple weeks now.

The kids are talking about their costumes, too.  I have been trying to convince Adrian that we should do Halloween as Mary and Joseph, but he's not on board for it.

What are your favorite fall candles, Jill?  I am crazy about Yankee Candle's Pumpkin Spice, although at nearly $30 for a decent sized candle, I have to round it out with cheaper stuff.  I really like the small Glade Cinnamon and Apples (I think?) candles that come in the frosted containers.  They go for about $2 a piece.

I also use the Pumpkin Spice fragrance oil in a diffuser that fits on a lightbulb.  A lot less expensive and it gives off a great scent.

Do you guys usually carve your pumpkins or paint them?  I saw a really neat treatment on a website with translucent glitter paint in different intensities being used on several pumpkins for a display.

My 14 year old still get's a kick out of trick or treatin and plans on doing the costume too.  The hard decision is what will be cool for a teen to wear!lol!  My hubby doesn't like going out to trick or treat so he's the one that usually hands them out, except I think last year he was occupied!  Amanda and I or should I say she picked her costume, Hannah Montana, the whole works!  We picked it up because around our neighborhood, it goes fast!
