Random Halloween Sightings
29 Oct 2010
Halloween comes and goes without much hoopla in an empty nest deep in the woods. Trick or Treaters that spook the living daylights out of my dogs haven’t ventured up my driveway in years. My own little zombies (below) are all grown up and have flown the nest (as they should). There is a glimmer of regret about not being able to enjoy Halloween vicariously through my babes.
Do not shed a tear for me – Halloween may not be my holiday anymore, and the kids only mildly resemble grown-up versions of those little zombies, but I still enjoy the holiday. Even if you have given up participating in the kitchier side of Halloween (parents do the strangest things), one does not have to relinquish all the treats.
Here’s an adult-sized dose of Halloween eye-candy:

Happy Halloween!

Thank you Elissa, I have no idea how they grew up so fast. They must have eaten something that we mixed up in the cauldron.
