they're not fabulous by any stretch of the imagination, but they're definitely good scrapbooking material. i especially love the one of her waiting patiently at the door. but i'm kicking myself today for not getting a photo of them together, in their costumes. and i'm also kicking myself for not turning off my flash the last time i used it, and thus, draining my batteries, and leaving myself in a tight position on halloween night. oh well, at least these have that "dark and spooky" look to them that goes so well with halloween.
i ran to target last night, fully expecting to "clean up" in the seasonal aisle - thinking that all of that lovely halloween home decor would be on a rediculously-inexpensive-can't-pass-that-up sale. i was wrong - someone had clearly beaten me to it. what had occupied 5+ aisles just the day before had been condensed into 2 clearance aisles, consisting mostly of excess halloween candy (no thank you!) and bad generic-brand candy corn. i was quite disappointed, but i'll try joann's this weekend, since they always have a better selection - and more of it.
i usually have no problem marching right onto the celebration of the next holiday - but for some reason, i'm still thinking about halloween. upon reflection, i've realized that this was the first year i went trick-or-treating as the adult supervision, and not the trick-or-treater, yet another notch in the bedpost of adulthood, much like buying your first (non-futon) couch, or raking the leaves in your front yard because it needs to be done and there's no one else to do it. so i guess, you could say, i'm just kinda "stuck on it".
oh, well - onward!
