Hello and Happy Halloween

  It's Halloween Day! Since it's on a Friday this year, I'm expecting truck loads of kiddies at my door (and have the candy to prove it). Last year did not turn out a very large group of Trick-or-Treaters,which was disappointing since I do love to see those amazing costumes they all wear. 

  The past couple of months have been very sad in our home. Our beloved man cat, Mr. Winkles, passed away in mid September due to failing kidneys. We did everything we could and he had and amazing vet doctor, but he was 14 years old and nothing could be done short of a kidney transplant (if that was a viable option, I would have been crazy enough to do it). I knew it would be sad to lose him, but there are no words to describe the unexpected sadness and grief that came over both my husband and me. It was heartbreaking and we miss him terribly. 

This year I decided to make two "kitty" pumpkins. Maybe someday I will enjoy carving pumpkins. *sigh*

Hello Kitty is Maleficent this year. I almost didn't think this would turn out... Eek!
