Tranquil Thursdays...NOT so much!

John's favorite holiday is Halloween. I've never seen a grown man enjoy this time of year as much as he does. I've endured over a month of a scruffy mustache and beard he's been growing for his villain costume... he's even at the point of counting down the days until he can shave it off. I am rudely shaken out of deep sleep by the screeching sound of the vampire bat hanging outside our front door, being set off by the slightest motion. The neighborhood kids stop in front of our house nightly to admire the flying witch, plasma ball through the window, and laser making designs on the sidewalk. My favorites are the two skeletons, one perched in the bougainvillea and the other on the roof. Men will be boys.

Enjoy your Halloween weekend!

How do you sleep at night with all of that surrounding your house?! I am scared to death all the way across the country! Have you sought help for this in the past?!;) Just kidding! This is unbelievable! Wish I could see it in person! You guys always have more fun than should be allowed!

Pico de Gallo is afraid of the bats. They went off the other day when he barked and he jumped higher than I've ever seen ... High Chihuahua!

WOW! Your place looks utterly amazing!! We don't really celebrate Halloween in Australia but after seeing your pics I'll have to go over to the USA one year to celebrate the holiday properly :)
