HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

HAPPY 

HALLOWEENIE!

(Witches need their tea time, too!)

I guess you'd say they're drinking WITCHES BREW!

(Insert audio witches cackle)

My friend Mary D, whom I visited last weekend

 put these first few things together in her gorgeous home!
Doesn't she had mad skillz?

The above adorable vignette was sitting on her

front porch stone bench.

The pic below is hanging on one of her wreaths,too!

What a GREAT sentiment, one I bet we all wish

 we could say out loud sometimes, eh?

Of course no All Hallow's Eve is complete here at the nest

 without our FRANKIE!!

He was painted by my daughter's mother-in-law.

I blogged about her talents before.

She is absolutely amazing - and very generous.

Aren't his skinny

 hairy legs just adorable?

His shirt says:

"My ♥ belongs to you, Witchie Poo!"

I think he's ready for some treats, don't you?

He actually makes me giggle out loud

every year I bring him out to play on the porch.

And his goofy toothy grin, he gets me every time.

She painted this cute tall skinny ghost/bat too!

I sure hope all the boys and ghouls

 have fun tonight!

The above pic was edited a bunch on Pic Monkey

to be macabre and scary looking.

Here is the untouched photo to compare-

showing you how a picture can totally change with tweaking it!

(All it was -a bright orange cheap plastic spider

hanging on a wine glass stem!)

We had such perfect fall weather all week long

but now we're expecting bad storms....

High winds, rain and possibly even lightening tonight.

I feel so bad for the little beggars

for Trick or Treat. 

Oh boy. Sure hope the storm holds off!

By the time I was ready to hit publish it

began to pour rain - not looking good for the kids.

That makes me so sad for them.

Everything here with Ohio weather can never be counted on.

(And I realllllllly shouldn't be trusted with so much leftover candy.)

Note:

 They really should have postponed.
Would have been a lot  more fun too for everyone being on a FRIDAY!

 Today - Nov. 1st - not a cloud in the sky and nothing but sunshine. Seriously, poor kids.

And in  closing, once again it is time to share:

My favorite Halloween  song of all time

singing it every year since the 3rd grade:

"It's Halloween"
~by Harry Behn


Tonight is the night
when dead leaves fly
like witches on switches
across the sky.
When elf and sprite flit
through the night on a moony sheen...
It's Halloween!

Tonight is the night
when leaves make a sound
like a gnome in his home under the ground
when spooks and trolls
creep out of their holes,
all mossy and green...
It's Halloween!

Tonight is the night
when pumpkins stare
through sheaves and leaves everywhere
when ghoul and ghost and gobline host
dance round their queen...
It's Halloween!

IF YOU HAVEN'T CHECKED OUT MY DAUGHTER'S 
PUMPKIN CARVING PARTY ON MY LAST POST
BE SURE TO SEE IT - IT WAS AMAZING!!!
(And extremely creative!)

Happy Haunting, everyone!

♥
