Trick or Treat

Our daughter Shy is our guest poster tonight – no tricks and I’m sure you’ll find it a real treat . . .

Halloween in the summer is just a great excuse for my family to get in touch with their inner child, create creepy crawlers, boo-tiful ghosts, and yes, get dressed up and act silly! Here is my family – as I am told we know how to put the “FUN” in dis-FUN-ctional!

Now, to share with you some of the memorable moments leading up to this grand TA-DA! There was learning to be a spider….I’m sure they did it a LOT quicker than I did, but with COWBOY Dad’s wisdom and handiwork, and my repeated circles and knots – we “GOT ER DONE!”

Then we lured some of the neighbours kids over and painted scary stuff all over their faces!

   That should get them some treats!

 

 

 

Then I toned it down a bit for the “cute little buggers” and many were transformed into beautiful butterflies:

Another benefit of being previously employed at a Party Supply Store was bringing home loads of Balloons that were on their way to the dumpster

(Dad taught me how to dumpster dive at a very young age - probably before I was old enough to be able to get myself out – but I’m ok, therapy is helping me A LOT!)

The other trailer park peeps got involved and had fun with Halloween too…

P1190301….especially my husband…he’s such a good sport! Here he is, and yes he has been working out lately! Love you baby!

 

So much fun…so little time. Grateful for all the great memories with my family - as crazy as they, or should I say WE all are!

    1. Yep, she FINALLY said yes and made an "Honest Man" out of me. Or at least as close as it comes. :)
      Betty, those ARE our wedding pictures. The guy with the SHOT-GUN had just left. That's what happens when you get a girl in the "Family Way". :) :) :)A little brother for Shy. Think we'll call him "TOMMY"
