It has been quite an eventful Hallowe'en.
The house was decorated.
The treats ready to go . . .
The pot of chili (that I have made every year since my second year of university when my friend Laura dragged me to her home for Hallowe'en and her parents served chili) bubbled on the stove.
The pumpkins were carved and lit . . .
We had 117 kids stop on by.
The most popular costume of the night? Spiderman.
The scariest costume of the night - Sarah Palin - I screamed really loudly for that one.
I hope that you all had a great time!
You give out chips? I want to trick or treat at your house!

You give out cats? As well as chips????
Seriously, I love your decorations, that's amazing work!
I wish I could have seen the Sarah Palin costume, hilarious.

One of my good friends at work dressed up like Sarah Palin. I told her I could not talk to her until she changed back :)
Amazing pumpkins! How long did it take you to carve them?

Softdrink - three types of chips. Sadly there aren't many leftovers. :-(
Sandra - Victor is NOT impressed (almost as badly as when I 'dressed' him for Halowe'en)
Girasoli - I used templates and mini-saws. They were all carved in less than an hour (then mom and I went out to lunch!) I'd never do it without the proper tools.

Okay, I am way behind, trying to catch up a bit, so just be patient...LOL. I LOVE those cutouts on the pumpkins...wow. When one catches up like this, it is sort of like seeing into the future...the posts fly by like a fortuneteller.
