Treat Links

Halloween is just about here and this time of year marks the start of the holiday season with festivities to be enjoyed over the next few months. And, to be honest I just remembered a box of glitzy decorations the other night that I couldn’t wait to place around the house.

Walking through the neighborhood this week has been a veritable treat, there is something exhilarating about being out this time of year, seeing spooky decorations that look as if they were designed for block-buster movie sets and pumpkins on front porches waiting to be carved into creative expressions.

Can you tell I love this time of year, well here are a few sites that have captured my attention and must be shared so, enjoy!!!

The family really pulled together to get the house ready for Halloween this year. Steve and Paul raked and mowed the lawn to get the pile of leaves off the walkway, drive and sidewalks so; the trick-or-treaters would have a clear path to the front door. Pumpkins were picked from the garden to decorate the entryway and leaves were selected to adorn baskets for candy.

Maria and I have been giving out sweets to the most adorably costumed creatures, who have been banging the doors off the hinges for lollipops and chocolates. But the kids are so well mannered, remembering to say thank you for their treats and wanting us to have a good evening.

To all Ghouls & Goblins have a Very Scary and Safe Halloween!!!
