Where does the time go....
well, it happens, and this year has been different and this last day of October was a little different, but somewhat the same.
Prep: 50 treat bags ( usually over 100, but pretty sure the count would be down ). Pumpkin lights on the path ( new this year from the dollar store ) Pictures from past years posted on the door
And dressed for the occasion,
(this little yellow number was a bridesmaid dress from long before Belle. It was a great price, at friends garage sale, and it works for me )
A clear night and a full blue moon ...the first in 76 years !
blue moon, as in the second full moon in the month, otherwise, every 19 months
READY
And this is our first guest...and she brought a treat to us ! A pretty bag full of at least 35 pieces of candy
I felt obliged to try one KitKat, one Reece's, one heath bar ( oops, make that two, now I remember why I never buy them, I would eat the whole bag ) Many thanks Robin
The next fella came without shoes or his costume
came back latter in his "donut " and "french fries" ....he lives across the street
then, little one came inside and took her cape, shoe and sock off before sister could tell her this was not a usual visit... more candy... get movin... ....they live next door
And it was not the usual number and lots of parents in the mix. I do have a few shots to post for next year... the following does not require permission.
And so another end of October event is in the books.
OH and the winter blooming camellia ...yep, in bloom
And Tinkerbelle....she comes back every year when the blooms appear...
and this one, from a few years back...
Pretty sure this will be the favorite for years to come
but I do have a very creative family
I live an exciting life
