Halloween Barbeque

So this year's Halloween theme was barbeque and we spent much of Thursday night drilling holes in eyeballs and tiny skulls to create shish kebab for the grill. Casey worked on the skull rotisserie while I set up the fog machine to simulate a smoking bbq. Dad Barton chided us for making Halloween too scary ("Back in my day, it was all Casper the Ghost) but hearing the kiddies giggle in delight was evidence that we'd made a good decision. One parent was even seen taking photographs of the bloody bbq! Even the menacing theme music from "Halloween" booming from our speakers didn't deter the little beggars from asking for chocolate candy.

Just how did that scarecrow get his head cut off by a lawnmower? Must have been determined.

Only wished that we could have done the trick-or-treat journey to your door step.
