Happy Halloweenie!

As with all holidays in Canada, Hallmark has made it all about the presents... Here is my cool Halloween cup from Starbucks that Jesse got me- the little spider on the inside is really funny.

This is the card I got Jesse - this message inside is 'Happy Halloweenie'. I got him a who's-ya-daddy serious umbrella cause our little travel ones from Kathmandu are getting a beating in the rain here!

Because we live in a 'condo' (apartment building) the trick-or-treaters can't get in so we decided to go to the trick-or-treaters! Not too many out and about cause we live in downtown but we found a few. The best were these 2 wee kids about a year old, the wee girl dressed up as a cow and the wee boy was dressed as a pumpkin - too freaking cute!

This is one of the decorated doorways we saw - not the best photos cause you feel a bit naughty taking photos of someones house! The 2 glowing things are pumpkin Jack O'Lanterns. You can buy pumpkin carving kits at the junk stores and there are thousands of templates available on the internet.

A door way with bones for a wind chime... Oooo!
Funny looking witch hanging out on a door.
Cool pumpkin! People have their pumpkins out on the porch or stairs of their house. I'm so doing one next year!
Blurry pumpkins.
Pee Wee Pumpkin. They sell ones not much bigger than a baseball so they are little kid sized :)
The view across the city at night from the other side of our house, awesome.
Our lounge with the pumpkin lights at night - you could see them from the side window when we were coming home, they looked really cool.

I hate to tell ya people but I think I will be bringing Halloween home with us - its so much fun!
