Thriller 2009, Part II

Happy Halloween, gentle readers! Kenna and I spent the weekend celebrating Halloween with the girls in Maryland. We wanted to coordinate our costumes and, since Kenna already had her lobster suit, I had to think of something to go with that. So, I present our costumes to you--here we are as surf and turf:

Kenna got hot and took her costume off for a while, but she stayed on Trick-or-Treater patrol:

She put the lobster suit back on, but then she got tired:

When she was awake, she got a lot of attention:

Kenna made a great lobster:

We spent Halloween evening watching movies, playing games, and eating and drinking to excess, as usual. A good time was had by all, including McKenna.

Thriller 2009

Well, gentle readers, it is time again for me to give you a tour of my Halloween decorations. They have been up for about two weeks now--Mother and Father of Ken helped and I think that Grambi woke up long enough to unwrap a few things, too ;-)

This is one of the new ornaments that Mother of Ken brought for me:

The garland on the table is also new and from Mother of Ken and the pumpkins and gourds we purchased at B&B Farms while they were visiting.

I also have three new flameless Halloween candles. Mother of Ken helped me decorate the window ledge with my Snickles and some bittersweet (apologies for the blurry photo):

Another cool new ornament--this one blends in well with the spiders that already live here:



More ornaments:

I even decorate the bathroom:

The stairs with the lights that Father of Ken strung through the spindles:

Something peeking out between the spindles:

My awesome Halloween wall hanging:

Tiny gourds and Snickles:

Fake sparkly candy corn in some glass dishes and my stained glass pumpkin plate:

Another new ornament that hangs over my sink:

Boo!

Even the armor man/knight gets to participate:

I don't have pictures of the cook pumpkins on the porch yet, but I'll post those soon. Happy Halloween!
