HALLOWEEN 2013

Looking at the beautiful autumn colors and preparing for the Trick-or-Treaters made me think of past years when our children were little.  They were so happy to dress up in costumes, carve pumpkins, and  to embrace Halloween in general. I miss those years.

 It's fun when the little children from our neighborhood come to our door.  Unfortunately not too many came this year because of the weather, but there were a few.  One little monster actually scared me. When I opened the door, I looked down at a very scary green mask.  He was soooo little!  I jumped when I saw him and said, "Oh, you scared me."  The parents standing a  short distance          away laughed.




MY KIDS FROM PAST HALLOWEENS

Suzanne and Janine as fairies.  I think that Matthew was a pirate that year.

Weren't they scary?

Now that's a scary picture!
