You could just feel the excitement as we got ready to begin our candy adventure many moons ago (and, thankfully, Mighty Mouse appeared to be in a much better mood).

Now THESE are old-school Halloween costumes… pretty tacky and probably highly flammable.  My husband H was particularly disturbed by the creepy clown.  Trick or Treat!

In the pumpkin patch at church, these diminutive pumpkins are referred to as Wee Be Littles.  They’re perfect for small hands.

Imagine waking up each morning and having to choose your color du jour.  There’s something here for every mood, and then some.

I don’t know the thought behind my “costume” but I’m sure I thought it was fabulous at the time.  Once again, my ever-perky sister S appears to have very high expectations for her candy haul, while little sis L is apparently still deciding on her guise.

These spooky skeletons caught my eye while window shopping with H in San Francisco.  They almost outshine the jewelry.

I’m always surprised at the variety of creatures that are all around us, if only we take a look.  Last week I had to shoo this praying mantis off the window sash at work before I could close up for the evening.
