Happy All Hallow's Eve

Halloween is one of my favorite times of year. Dare I say that it ranks very close to Christmas? Blasphemy you say? OK, so you can say it, good for you. Anyway, the coolness of the year, the smells (like the decay of dead leaves, pumpkin innards, etc.), the sound of the leaves as you walk or run through them or when you rake them up, jack-o-lanterns, lights, zombies, scary monsters... oh yeah- CANDY, right? Well, I was the only one home this All Hallow's Eve for most of the night- it was kind of weird. Brenda had gone to Las Wages for a work convention, Sydney had to work late, and Carson went out to eat with some friends and then hot tubbing after that... (oh, reminder to self- remind Carson to take his phone out of his trunks before getting in the hot tub next time ;) although I'm sure they'll come out with a waterproof phone soon enough.)

But, whilst I was waiting for some little tricksters to come for treats so that I might scare the bee jeebees out of them, I watched some of my classic movie favs... House on Haunted Hill, Ghost and Mr. Chicken, Hocus Pocus, Arsenic and Old Lace (someone BORROWED Young Frankenstein, (please return it if it was you, so I couldn't watch that one.... dang!)

So, here are a few pix. I got the ones of Emery off her mother's site- I just had to have some of my gkids! She was a little pirate- Aaaaarrrrrrr! Madison, Jake, and Isla donned themselves as Rapunzel, You-gene, and Pascal. I was just my devilish sweet self 8> (as always).
