Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween!!

It's our favorite day of the year!!!
 
"When witches go riding and black cats are seen, the moon laughs and whispers, 'tis Halloween!"
 
Our pumpkins are carved.  Our decorations are set.  Today's costumes are selected. 
 
We have no idea what time trick-or-treating is, but we will be waiting for the little ghouls & goblins, the princesses & brides, the superheroes & villains!!
 
Donna has been standing "guard" at the slider the whole month...just watching & waiting, even scaring a few wee ones who wouldn't pass our door!  Bones have been added to the outdoor decor, with hands waiting to be strategically placed!
 
Saturday, I was the Queen of Bedlam...aka Insane Jane. 
 
Today, I am reprising my dead school girl, but won't wear my wig, will wear one of Chris's ties and, of course, will wear my new white-out contacts!!  Gonna add some "scratches", perhaps a few bruises, too. 
 
We are dressing up to get a free pint at Left Hand Brewing.  I am hoping to get my hands on the Dunkelweiss!!  We will return for the kiddos and then we are heading to Boulder to attend a concert and costume party at The Overlook Hotel.
 
The Overlook Hotel was the name of the hotel in Stephen King's The Shining.  How apropos for this evening's festivities!  The band is N'awlins funk ~~ should be interesting!  And it's free, free, free!!! 
 
So, back in Indiana, storms are a-brewing, so much that trick-or-treating is being rescheduled to tomorrow!  Wow!  Never do I remember Halloween being rescheduled!  We went in cold, in snow, in rain!  We had to wear coats over our awesome costumes!!!  Total bummer, but we weren't going to miss out on that candy! 
 
Here, it's sunny and chilly.  Temp will be high 50's.  It's pretty glorious! 
 
Wishing you a hauntingly good time ~~ whether you celebrate tonite or tomorrow! 
 
For me, I will be celebrating all thru the weekend!  Remember, November 2nd is Dia de Los Muertos!
