Greetings ghosts, ghouls and goblins,

Here they are, my first Trick or Treater's of the night. Two of these little ones are almost always my first visitors of the evening. My niece and nephew make my house their first stop and then off to grandma's house they go. Usually a 35 minute drive for mom and dad but now she's only about 15 minutes down the interstate. We like that.

This little witch is my Angel,

and Travis is none other than Darth Vader. I think he will forever be a Star Wars fan.

This is my oldest niece, Christina. Chrissy is my brothers child from a prior relationship. Bad things were happening in her home and she is now in foster care. My brother has stepped forward and the system is now integrating her into their home. Things are going well and she is loving getting to know her younger siblings better and learning to trust more. We are praying that soon she will be permanently placed in their home. We would be grateful for your prayers.

We had lunch at Pizza Hut today with Bobbie and our granddaughter. I love Pizza Hut's buffet. They went off to visit friends until the witching hour. In our terms that is 6:00-8:00 p.m. being trick or treating time. She will trick or treat our house last and stay the night so mommy can go hang with friends. We are going to watch the comedy Young Frankenstein with Gene Wilder. I love that movie. I had some fun playing around with pictures today and came up with these.

Creepy Monster Face...

My version of Mona Lisa...

Uhhh, I don't know...
Too cute to be scary...
Screeching cat!

Happy Halloween everyone, Be safe and have fun!

And Happy Harvest to those that don't do Halloween.

Fall is such a nice time of year.

A Fun Day at the Zoo

Greetings all,

It's been a quiet Sunday here. I've had a chance to look over some pictures taken yesterday of my granddaughter and to write another article for AC. Hubby and I had a movie date this afternoon, we seen Saw VI. For those of you that like that type of film you won't be disappointed. Laundry is about done too. It's been a good day.

Please go read "Black Cat Halloween Costume How To" over at my AC site. It was so much fun to put together. The tutu took me a week to make in my spare time. Seems I don't have much of it anymore; time that is. Not since I found Face Book anyway. I must learn to watch the clock while on there or Face Book steals my time away. LOL

Careful now, there may be animals hiding in the tall grasses.

My granddaughter wanted to be a Fancy Black Cat for Halloween so I obliged. It was fun browsing around the internet looking for ideas and then getting together all of the things that would be needed. We did a trial trick or treating run yesterday. The local zoo had a trick or treating day yesterday and I took my granddaughter in costume. She is 10 now and getting close to the age of not being accepted as a trick or treater and yet she still loves dressing up and meeting new people. She really showed interest in all of the little kids and loved all the different costumes she seen. We even seen a Grouch in a trash can. I didn't get a picture and wish I had. We seen lots of animals and she even got to touch a few lizards and a big snake. Yuck!! Fearless she is when it comes to animals. This is the little gal that held a baby alligator, remember. Fearless!! So hear are some of the pics. Do go to your local zoo as it's a wonderful stage for beautiful backgrounds for photos with all of the beautiful fall colors.

I wonder what species of cat is sunning itself here?

We got to see a baby too.

There's that black cat again.

This wizard told wonderful stories about the creepy crawly things.

She really did touch this snake. It took two "witches" to carry it around.

Beautiful!!

Trick or Treat


You all have a good week now, ya' here...

Happy Halloween

And those ghastly spiders too!

Have a Safe and Happy Halloween Everyone!!
