My (unemployed) husband has some extra time on his hands these days, so he made another Home Run Inn video. Some of you may remember he also did one last year. It's much too late to try to garner the votes we'd need to win, but it is so cute (I think) and wanted to share. So take a peek. Vote 15x if you feel like registering. Any positive comment would really make my dh's day--frankly that would be better than a vote, but both would be nice!! ANd if you don't want to register, no biggie. Enjoy!!! http://www.homeruninncontest.com/homeruninn/media-page/101

Haha! I loved it! Your son can really get some good expressions going, too! If you have Facebook, you can log in and vote with your FB account so I have thrown quite a few votes your way. Your kids are great and kudos to your DH. He did a great job!

I love halloween. I normally have a open house for anyone that wants to stop by and eat or have a drink. When our kids were young Hubs and I would take turns taking the kids trick or treating so whoever stayed to pass out candy would dress up,as the kids got older we stopped. I was thinking it would be fun to dress up this year but hubs doesn't seem enthused about it. I found some Bill and Hillary masks and thought that would be a hoot. I will probably just get a witches hat and throw on my little black dress.

I love Halloween too. Probably because it was the most looked forward holiday when I was a kid--next to Christmas. And it still triggers a spark, even at my age! I love decorating the house, and outside--but nothing too crazy and over the top! I even have special mugs and cups, Halloween themed, that I drag out mid-September and use till Halloween. I love watching Halloween themed tv shows--although there doesnt seem to be that many this year. I make cupcakes approprately decorated, and on Halloween night, a hot drink called Witch's Brew. I'll probably wear some kind of costume to hand out candy, and go out to see what the neighbours have concocted for decorations on their front lawns.

That Witch's Brew sounds good. Hubs and I like the shows too and have been disappointed that there haven't been many to watch. We usually put movies on in the den on halloween for anyone that wants to watch. Last year it was a marathon of Jeepers Creepers and I was shocked at how many people sat in there and watched. I got to pick this year and we are playing Hocus Pocus, Young Frankenstein and the orginal Halloween.

I love Hocus Pocus! My daughter used to watch it over and over when she was younger. We went out this afternoon to get movies for her friends to watch in the basement on Saturday night--all horror of course. The acorn doesnt fall far from the tree, lol.

My Sons liked Hocus Pocus when they were young too. I like scary movies also but I am partial to the old ones. Haloween with Michael Myers still scares me and The Fog is another one of my favorites. Really anything with Jamie Lee Curtis. I remember going to the theater and watching Friday the 13th and not sleeping good that night.

I saw the cutest treats on Good Morning America. Easy and cheap to make. Sugar cookies with orange food coloring shaped in triangles and dunked in frosting (or you could just frost the top) to look like huge candy corns. Hohos frosted with choc. frosting and sprinkled with crushed choc cookies. When you put them in a row and stand up Milano cookies (that have RIP written on them ... use an icing tube), it looks like a graveyard. Cupcakes decorated all kinds of cute ways!

When our kids were young Hubs and I would take turns taking the kids trick or treating so whoever stayed to pass out candy would dress up, Same with us. That's what mom & dad did, that's what we do, and it aggravates me when I see my neighbors, both parents with the kids, house dark, yet decorated. I hope I'm making sense-I understand these are tough times, but dh & I have been po-po-po, and still had something for the kids. Sorry-rant over. I dress up as Jason-masked hockey player, dh doesn't dress up, kids are all into it. 2-yr old grandbaby was a zombie, complete with bloody mouth and shirt as if she'd just eaten flesh...lol

Oh Bluejax the zombie outfit on your grandbaby sounds so cute! We had so many cute trick or treaters this year. My favorite had to be a little 3 or 4 yr old that after I gave him his candy he very carefully sat his bucket down and shot me with his ray gun. I couldn't stop laughing it was so cute. I hope everyone had a fun Halloween.

Halloween was great. Weather was perfect..it had been calling for rain and wind and we got neither. Clear skies and a big ol moon. Heres my little guy. He's a Sea Otter..Not many of them out there trick or treating..
