Halloween 2010

Sugar n' Spice Home Decorator store had a witch costume contest the week before Halloween. Alicia entered and used Avril as a "prop." Avril was Glenda, the good witch from the musical "Wicked."

Gayle, applying make-up to Avril.

The sweet little good witch

Alicia all decked out as a witch

Mother and daughter witches

Avril had fun. But the witch's hat was difficult to keep on her head!

"Papa" with the witch after the costume change

Some of Gayle's house decorations for Halloween and autumn

This is the first year Gayle did a "Halloween Tree." The little witches were hand made by Gayle many years ago.

Another witch in the front room (Gayle made this; and the face is made from panty hose).

Our front entry with pumpkins (which Avril calls "Punks").

More fall decor

Some of the scary decorations

The front porch with flowers still hanging in there as the weather gets colder

A dummy on our front porch rocking chair

A shot of the autumn scenery looking out past our berm

The back deck as leaves build up. I can't keep up with the falling leaves this time of year.

Our back hillside

Some of the neighborhood kids trick or treating.

And here is Avril, as a dragon, with her good friend from next door, Jordan King (as Jack Sparrow).

Alicia was a Ladybug, but Jesse didn't want to be that kind of bug. So Alicia made him be a VW Bug.

So nice to catch up with our neighbors! Your trip looked like it was wonderful. We loved all the photos. The witches were great! And your yard and home are always so pretty - no matter the season.
