Bobbing for Apples...

One of the fun things about looking at different Halloween Invitation designs is they show quite a few of the traditions that go beyond the invitation Halloween aspect. Take bobbing for apples, while it's shown on many Halloween Party invitations, it actually existed before Halloween as a harvest custom where the young unmarried people would try to bite into an apple floating in water or from a string. The first person to bite the apple was the first one expected to get married... Whether or not you bob for apples, you can get unique and exclusive Halloween Invitations at www.invitations-shoppe.com, where you also get free shipping and ten free Thank You cards with each order...
