Happy Halloween!

Halloween is my all-time favorite holiday. I love everything about it; the candy, the kids all dressed up in their cute little costumes, the decorations, carving pumpkins and roasting pumpkin seeds.

And the music! This is quite possibly the only time of year you will hear "Time Warp" played on a regular radio station. "Thriller" is played over and over and songs like the Eagles "Witchy Woman" and "Dark Lady" by Cher get pulled out of the archives. Classics.

This particular Halloween is the last one before our one and only daughter goes off to college. I have told her that after this year, every Halloween, her Dad and I will sit in the house with the lights off and every time children come to our door to trick or treat we will yell out, "Get off our stoop you meddling kids!"  Really, we just might.

But since she is still at home this year, we spent the afternoon in the garage, carving pumpkins. It's always fun. Every year for the past several years, we carve a "puking pumpkin". I think we were creating puking pumpkins way before they were cool.

So here, for your enjoyment, is the famous puking pumpkin. At least this year he is hitting the garbage can. Thank goodness because I was really getting tired of cleaning up after him year after year!

Happy Halloween!

Keep on smiling!
