Totally off Topic ...Halloween

Adorable photos janie!

Hi everyone!

Family matters and time off from work have kept me away the last few days. I've missed you all, though... and look forward to re-grouping and returning full-fledged 100% soon! Miss ya'll something feirce! Hugs- k.
 
Yes Halloween is Saturday but they always set trick or treat for a day or two before here. I think they want to avoid conflicting with Friday night Football of all things.
I saw some cute costumes. My favorite was Cindy Lou and the Grinch. I saw an adorable little three year old Geisha girl and one of the cutest little toddler bumble bees ever.

Miss you to Kev. Come back soon!
 
Me too I just visited Party City and the line was from the front of the building to the back, the costumes were outrageous with some outrageous prices too! Thanks for explaining this to me, I hope you did not mind jglass I was really interested. At first I thought probably they were attending a Halloween party, then I decided just pop the question. In NY you can only trick or treat on the said day, I wish we had your luxury, because I am ready and excited. I like looking at how everyone decorated their lawns, and the kids happy faces, and their selected costumes, especially the babies, they are so cute! I love it! I forgot to mention those pictures are astonishing and absolutely adorable, thanks for sharing.
 
One of the cutest-ever homemade Halloween costumes I ever saw was a cow costume made from a black & white pair of sweats, in the splotchy-spotted pattern of a black & white cow- with rubber nipples from baby bottles sewed up and down and around the belly to look like a cow's udders!
 
I have not seen anyone yet in LI NY. People are probably working or still asleep, that's because we usually trick or treat late in the evening, but this year I wanted to start early and finish early not in the dark. I guess there is no fun trick or treating in daylight!
 
Well it's half an hour to go to the witching hour and it has been a smashing Halloween.
Kids dressed up as all sorts. One little boy had a lit up head/mask, I think it must have been made by a clever older brother or sister. I was pleased to see quite a few Mums and Dads and even Grans are joining in with the spirit of things.

What a load of rubbish on the box... you'd think that one of the channels would put Hocus Pocus or Bewitched or something of that ilk on.

The girls look as if they have really enjoyed themselves, I love the ring, striped tights, magic.

After all in is Halloweeeen.:D
 
We found Hocus Pocus on dvd at SAMS last year for $5. I watched it a few days ago. I had been complaining to Jon no one was showing the Halloween specials like they normally do. Usually the Disney channel shows Hocus Pocus tons of times before Halloween. The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown was on one channel a few days before Halloween but that is the only special I saw. We get a channel here called AMC and they have been showing alot of the slasher movies like Halloween but I dont really care for those.

I have some favorite movies I always watch this time of the year.

My sis was telling me the kids took one of the buckets of candy with them when they were in her van the other day. They had it sitting on the seat in between their car seats so they could share. As long as they eat their meals she is letting them pretty much pack their candy with them where ever they want and enjoy it. I thought they would be nuts for the chocolate but the baby is crazy about the suckers and the gummi life savers more than the good chocolate candies.

It was so funny the night we went trick or treating half way before we were done my sis's husband had to go pee really bad. He didnt think it was funny at all when I started describing a documentary I had watched on Niagra Falls. Then I had their five year old start tickling him and she kept asking Daddy if he needed a diaper lol.
 
I was talking to the elderly lady who used to live here before she moved to Columbus OH with her son a few years ago. She said they had over 200 trick or treaters at their house. THAT is a lot of candy lol.
