Trick or Treat

The day after Hallowe'en must be dreaded by teachers and parents everywhere. However, festivities were in full swing last night at the Carleton Place Jam.

First though, here is my duckling...

and my BumbleBee.

In their excitement, they would not/could not stand still and I have no idea what's going on with that shadow. They had their candies and were off into the night. They were 2 of the 5 children who darkened my door. Next year, I'm buying candy for me. Anybody want a tootsie pop?

At the jam, we had a pirate, a lumberjack, a devil sitting beside an angel (both playing harps), a jester, a bunny rabbit, a classy dude in a boler hat and a fancy dressed lady! Oh and for a change, we also had an audience.

Laura, I was told that your mother made that outfit when you were sweet 16. Is that true?

I don't care if they were clothes you had stashed in your closet, Bruce. You make a very convincing (and fetching) lumberjack.

Anyone recognize that pirate hat? Argh! I needed a pirate hat anyway! It was Fate, I tell you. Fate that I couldn't make that hat for John.
I don't know who is cuter in this picture, Barb or John.John liked his new birthday hat, even if it was still a bit damp! Now it will fit the exact shape of his head.

Sue, you are so devilish!
And Marian the angel. (I hope your knees are ok!)
