I'm glad you had a blast :) I ate a bit too much candy LOL
whoa - don't know why I wasn't expecting that ending =)
autumn is the best time of the year!
LOL, Dennie. This is *me* you must expect the darkness to sneak in somewhere. :P
I LOVE Autumn!!
Yep, perfect.
Sorry I've not blogged in awhile. Busy plus Modem was broken for over a week. Missed doing a great Halloween post. Oh well.
You sure did a good one.
I went as a mutant WereSkunk Nurse. My kids were a Vampire and ghoul. Tell me Mom's influence isn't strong, eh?
Hope you had a great Samhain!
I love the costume ideas, Michele! WereSkunk...I'll have to remember that :P
Missed you, btw!!
Hugs, Hun.
Ok, now that was creepy as hell. Don't know why it surprised me -- I ought to know better by now!
