We are oh so very relieved that Griffy came back. All it took was Gareth suggesting I stand at the back door and shake the bag of cat food. So I did and to what did my wondering eyes appear? A 22lb meowing tumbleweed of fur bounding over the fence and shooting up the steps to the back deck. Yep, there was my large orange feline mewling his head off, as if to say; "ok, gimme food, will never run away again...feed me, FEEEEEED ME,can't you see I'm starving!!!!"
Anyhow, we're glad he's back, because I couldn't handle listening to Gaby stand on the front porch steps howling her head off for the cat. It was enough to break anyone's heart.
I'm only going to post a couple of pics from today/tonight because my nose is running like a faucet and I'm about to fall over from exhaustion. Tonight ended up being crazy. I stopped counting trick or treaters at 135. We had close to 175 I'd say. I got some great pics of Meg and her friends (we ended up being crashed by 12 of her friends. At first I was irritated, because there was no advance warning, but they are a great group of kids and I couldn't help but be buoyed by their great attitudes and fun spirit) as well as Gaby. What's even better is that I got wonderful video of Gaby handing out candy. Fun stuff.
For now though, here are a few from this afternoon and tonight. Will post the rest tomorrow.
Our little bumblebee....her buzz is worse than her sting!
Pierre, the Pumpkin (above) - handiwork courtesy of Gareth, I'll post a better picture tomorrow.
Our two Halloween Cuties (Meg dressed up as Daisy Duke)
The "group" of Meg and her friends before heading out to trick or treat....
And here is one of Gregory, our household ghost getting ready to make his ghoulish appearance tonight....
That's all for now kiddies. We have ten million things to do around the house as (Oh yeah I forgot to tell you all) one of my ducklings is returning to the mama's nest....Zack is returning to Maine. He gets in at the ghastly hour of 5:45AM on Friday morning. Lots to do, and not enough time to get it all done, especially when one doesn't feel too well to begin with.
