Our 2 year old "Grand" next door, came over in the morning, to show 'Pop' and 'Nana' his costume.
He was a green Dinosaur this year! And it gave 'Nana' a chance to show him her
sparkly black Witch Cape and so-fancy Purple Witch hat. So he wouldn't be surprised, later.
Pay no attention to the cob webs in the picture, please. It's only when the morning sun shines directly in there, that one sees them. -gigggggles-
Gabe was fine with my Witch Costume. He could see that it was 'Nana' *in-there.* But then I picked up my broom and asked him if he thought I could fly on it? He backed away a bit. I asked him, if he would like to fly on my broom with me, if I got it to fly? He backed away, a bit more.
OK! Cape and Hat are cool with Gabe. Getting used to talk of Broom Flying, will take a wee bit more time. -giggggles-

Quite a few Trick Or Treaters, as I expected. Lots of college kids. (We live across from a college) They were on their way down to the Big Halloween Event, down a few streets. Gracious! She even had "A Capella Singers," performing songs like "Ghost Busters"!!! And giving out huge Willy Wonka Chocolate Bars, etc. How could any neighbor-hood-little-bags-of-candy, compete?
When "Uncle A." got home from working at the store, at 6PM..... There was practically a traffic jam, near and in front of that *McMansion*! He turned and came home, up another street.

We watched "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". I love that one. And the traditional Christmas one. Don't get-into the Thanksgiving one, as much. Guess I can't quite accept a bunch of children, having to have their own Thanksgiving...... -grumble, grumble, grumble- :-)

I was looking for something on the theme of "Putting October To Sleep." But found this instead. It is quite lovely. If you have a hard time, transitioning from waking to sleep time, especially with children, perhaps you would enjoy this post.... Actually, it has a lot of Wisdom, for all of us. No matter what our time of life, etc.

This time of year is so much fun -- and so much work! But aren't they all?!
I do love that witch's hat, even if you CAN't fly. :-)
Greetings from Minneapolis,

glad to hear you had a good halloween! the dinosaur is so cute! not one trick or treater here...not one!
i love your costume, really cool and that is the cutest dinosaur i have ever seen.
I think you look wonderful! Our grand daughter was a green dinosaur too!
Gabe is so cute...bet that he had fun.
That is one more cute dinosaur! No "spooks" at all here last night. I didn't even don my costume!:(
Happy first day of November! The dishes in your header are beautiful!
Gabe is such a little sweetheart. You are blessed.

Oh my, the world's cutest dinosaur with the most twinkly-eyed Grammy ever!
One wonders if the nouveau riche down the way were perhaps huge geeks with no friends in their earlier days and this is their 'Revenge of the Nerds' fantasy come true. Oh oops, was that unkind of me?
Don't be too tough on the Great Scot, his humour and laughter has kept us going through some very rough spells and gave me the courage to keep going out to face the public during the days when all I wanted to do was curl up in a little ball.
*hugs* You do know I adore you, right?
Gabe was such a cute dinosaur!
You make a very friendly looking witch. : )
Halloween was a non event around my neighborhood. Didn't get any trick or treaters.
Awwww...what a little Cutie!
Love your costume as Well!!
We had NO treaters! Oh well, it's been slacking off for years now...

I just love that little green dinosaur...so cute and adorable. BTW...so is his grandmother the sweet witch :)
We live in the country so we had only four trick-or-treaters...actually five when you count our granddaughter.
Well at the "mansion" it sounds as if all were having a wonderful halloween...except maybe Uncle A. in the traffic jam!
Love the cobwebs...so "halloweenish" :)
Happy November, Auntie :)
Nice to meet you, Auntie! I'm so glad you enjoyed my post. It's always nice to connect with kindred spirits :) Thanks for linking to my blog!

What a snuggly-looking dinosaur. I love that so many kids' costumes look as though they could double as pajamas. :)

Sounds like a perfect Halloween. We did not get one, not even one, trick or treater.
Looks like you had a fun time at your house last night! You look like a really cool witch and little Gabe is so cute as a dinosaur!
