Halloween Fun and Happenings


 Mrs. Abbott shows Miles what's behind the "little" door on library night.





Wicked Woods at Green Lakes State Park 2016.  The drizzle sent up home a little early so no trail of terror this year, but we got lots of candy and had a great time.  Unusual we get to do things as a family of four, which is why this entry contains photos of the author!


 Cub Scout Halloween Party with the Traditional Group Photo Where No One is Looking at the Camera









More Wicked Woods pics.  Just can't seem to capture the colors this year.




My pumpkins. We only did 2 this year instead of the usual half dozen or so.  The one on the left was inspired by the movie "The Book of Life."
