Spooky Stuff

So last night was my high holiday.  Yes Christmas is lovely, but every Halloween I get to be something that I decidedly am not.  It's a chance to create something that is not real and invite others to share it with you.

The wee ones don't get it, whatever you do, so we always no matter the theme try not to scare the little ones.  The older kids, however, are great fun to mess with.  Last night's theme was Zombie Strong-hold.  I am on a bit of a zombie bender anyways, what with Walking Dead being so awesome and zombies in general just being hot, hot, hot.  It was a natural extension.

What makes Halloween especially fun is that my husband participates and I think, enjoys it all as much as I do.



The disinfection team arrived, but didn't get very far before running into a little trouble (or a zombie).  All visitors were carefully screened to detect the zombies.  "Are you a zombie?"  The neighbour insisted this was a poor test, as the zombies might lie.  We of course knew that zombies only moan.  Our cat has failed the test.  Not sure what to do about that.


A "disinfection" may be imminent.
We had a couple of close calls.  Apparently things went horribly wrong at Oktoberfest this year.  But we had treats for everyone.

Happy Halloween!
