Boo!


Today we took the big cutouts of flowers out of the front windows. Summer has gone. Halloween decorations replaced the flowers. There's a big banner of a witch who says "Stay for a spell!" and another banner with a skeleton on it. The third window has a collection of artwork the kids made...a big ghost, a black cat, a spider, a pumpkin, a monster, and a sign that says BOO. We brought out the candy dish that has a battery operated hand in the middle (think "Thing" from the Addams Family show) and a battery operated ghoul who has rags covering his head and arms (think leprosy).

We also went to get the two older kids Halloween costumes. Son #3 is going to be a snake again. Son #2 picked out a black hooded cape with a pair of battery operated glasses that flash red behind a black mesh mask. Spooky. Son #1 picked out a ghoul with a skeleton chest and a pump that spews fake blood. (Eww.)

Son #1 was being camera shy but here are the other two trying on their costumes.
