Signs of the Season….

As I wander my home, there are certain signs to tell me that Samhain arrives tonight….

 

Broom Hilda and her companion Fat Cat are roosting on the stairs…

 

Spiders and bats have found temporary homes dangling from the ceiling…

The local shopkeepers are open….

  

And the outside of the house is ready too!

 

First, we buried Cousin Jake and his friend, Lester Moore:

 

And then we found that a friend has a wee accident on the front lawn:

 

The pumpkin bats have returned to roost for another year (personally, I think they’re laughing at our friend….)

 

 

Pumpkins have been carved:

 

The results:

 

 

(On the left is a mask from Bionicle, on the right is DS#1’s answer to life, the universe and everything……)

 

Halloween stitching has emerged from storage:

 

And probably the surest sign of the season is one Callie waits for every October:

 

Her favourite lap.  Still no progress on getting Hazel to scratch her behind the ears though….

 

 

Happy Halloween to one and all!
