Haunting Halloween Decor..........



On Halloween afternoon...we drove from the cottage to my son's house...
We were on our way home, as it was a dull gloomy day!!
My son has always been very artistic, and has always loved HORROR!
After highschool, he was accepted into ANIMATION at Sheridan College...he went into it so excited...not realizing the first year was more like Art school..:o(
He excelled..{of course}...but changed course...and went into Media Arts...
Toronto was a booming film city in those days...due to our low $...which unfortunately is low again!!
He went into the movie industry...loved it...but very gruelling work...worked his way up to Director's Assistant...when the bottom fell out of the movie business in Canada...
To make a long story short...which I do believe I have not done! 
He is now in the web business...designs web sites for many people, and is excellent at it...I must say!!
VERY proud Mom here♥️

Whenever there is an occasion to decorate...he embraces it with all his heart and soul...
He made all these decorations for his cute house for Halloween...
The pillars are made out of styrofoam...all carved out by hand...
Behind the ghoulish faces, are aluminum trays from the $ store...
Bought all kinds of things there...and repurposed them!!
He painted everything...added moss...ivy...you name it!!
Isn't he an amazing guy!!!
 






As always...his gal Anna, put on a great spread...

All of the sweets were gluten free...as were the crackers and chips...

All of my kids were there...Miss V did her trick or treating up and down his street...

We left early...as we didn't want to be partypoopers...

And...Ryan still had some work to do outside!



Aunt Anna always has a new craft to do with Miss V...lovely girl!



Miss V and her Mom had shown us her costume a few days before Halloween...
She wanted to the THE HULK!!!
Can you believe it! hahaha!
 

My son took the next pic of Miss V outside his house...
The 3 pumpkins beside her...were the singing pumpkins!
He put a projector and played the film onto the pumpkins...
They were hilarious!! Had a real comedy routine going!!
His neighbours were very impressed with all his hard work...
And..
As you can see...

SO WAS MISS V!!!

She so loves her Uncle Ryan♥️♥️♥️







Auntie Lissa took this pic of Miss V enjoying a cupcake and a drink from her Halloween glass, that Aunt Anna gave her!

What a night she had.......



Hope you are all having a great day...
Another beautiful day here...


Picked up Miss V...took her to the grocery store...out for lunch...bike ride...park..bit of tv...story...napping!!


Her Mom is coming for dinner...
We are having baked filet of sole,fried rice and brussells...


Enjoy the rest of your day...



               Cheers!  :o)

Trick or Treat

 Every year, for as far back as I can remember, we have been decorating for Halloween. The "scarecrow" was just that, 20 years ago, but when my son realized he was a horror junkie, it transformed into something more creepy every year. From the straw hat, that became a shroud....to the huge hands he created in his lab!!!



It certainly looks scarier at night, with the fog machine, and the taped sounds of chains, screams and moans. The strobe light adds an air of mystery.


Happy Halloween to all my friends.....don't eat too much chocolate!
