We love Halloween.

We love the opportunity to use it as an excuse to celebrate with family and friends. We love the spooky, the kooky and the general spirit of the evening.

Admittedly not everyone enjoys Halloween. I’ve met many people who would prefer to ignore it altogether … and that’s OK. We celebrate Halloween enough for everyone!

Each year, our yard is transformed into a cacophony of monsters, graveyards, skeletons and animated witches. Throw a smoke machine (or two) into the mix and you have quite the experience. Thanks to some very helpful neighbours the whole thing comes together over a day or two.

Thankfully, the rain held out and the neighbourhood children were able to experience this year’s efforts of creativity.

Hmmm, and now to pack it all away …
