Countdown to Halloween

Well, it's October and Denise is beside herself with happiness. She is busy planning and sewing costumes and trying to decorate the house. The house is coming along slowly - there seems to be too many other things needing her attention but you can bet that by Halloween night the house will be ready for trick or treaters.

Our annual Halloween party that went to every other year, because we skipped last year, is not happening again this year. The thought of all the time, work, and money involved was sending Denise a bit over the edge. She feels bad because she does love having the party but is somewhat relieved that she is not currently in the midst of party preparation. We're hoping next year we will be ready to throw another big shindig.

Here are some pictures from the last big Halloween party - a moment of silence please...
