Happen Yalloweh 2009

The jack-o-lanterns are blown dark, the streets are quiet, and everyone has gone home. That was not the case a few hours ago when the family gathered for a Halloween party. We carved pumpkins, ate supper, and the binkers and their parents joined the trick-or-treaters in the street. The kids' buckets were filled to the brim with candy and everyone seemed happy but tired. (Thanks to Anna for some of her photos -- my camera lens was dirty and my flash had issues.)
