Spooky Monday

September 6, 2010

I'm a little late for today's Spooky Monday over at Wendy's Adventures in Wonderland due to the Labor Day holiday and all that ~  we had a nice day with the kids, of course.  But now I can sit back and reminisce on Halloweens past, and the fun that went along with it.  Here's a peek at Halloween 2009:


Here's a spooky spider we made with my son's kindergarten class ~ the eyes actually lit up.  I was pretty proud of this, although it did prove quite a challenge for the 5-year-olds!  




We always pre-bag the trick-or-treat candy and leave it on the porch because we're not home ~ we're out trick or treating with our kids!


Here's one of my favorite Halloween decorations ~ a whimsical canvas painting.


And we always decorate with candy corn.  Unfortunately, I have a real weakness for the stuff!

Finally, here's a picture of one of my most treasured Halloween memories.


This is chickadee #3 in his school's Halloween "parade."  Be still my heart.  Without a doubt he's my absolute favorite Power Ranger of all time!  Missed the girls' parade ~ sigh.  Hope to catch it this year.  Only 54 days to go!


Thanks, Wendy!  Everyone have a great spooky week!

Dearest Kathleen,
What a wonderful Spooky Monday Post. I am always partial to the stories about our greatest creations. Those being our children. I love displaying what they created more than my store bought stuff. It is wonderful.
Thank you for joining in over at Spooky Mondays. Make sure you send me your address. I am sending a little something to all those that posted this past week.
Spells and Wishes,
Wendy from Wonderland
