But the evening started with pumpkin carving first.
Gillian and Tracey made a kitty cat that Buddha seemed to approve of.
He even kind of looked like the kitty cat.
I carved with my usual trusty jigsaw.
Chris tried to carve Eleasha. I told him to stop being silly and use a real pumpkin.
I carved away with my jigsaw, as the gentleman behind me was hung up, awaiting being carved himself.
Speaking of which, I haven't showed you all much of my decorations this year, have I? He is my absolute favorite.
Yes, That is a giant hook poking through his head.
I was at Fred's house one night and I noticed this hanging on his wall in the basement and thought that it was terribly creepy. I asked him if I could borrow it for Halloween. He laughed and said that this was a drawing of his father from the 1920's. I quickly apologized and he laughed and said that I could absolutely borrow it. His only condition was that if anyone asked who that was in the picture, that I say, "Oh - that's Emerson. He's ready to play..."
All in all, it was a different Halloween than I have had in quite awhile. New place, new vibe. It was also the night before Buddha's surgery, so there was a little bit of anxiety involved. But all in all it was a fun night. Surely some of the most creative costumes I have seen in quite awhile. Thanks to everyone for coming! Happy Halloween!
