Halloween Festivities Galore!

Molly Brown House Museum presents Victorian Horrors = sweet!!! Saturday night was spent listening to ghoulish, turn of the century, short stories from an acting troupe at the Molly Brown house. The ambiance, acting, cider and cookies (from next door) were all spectacular and well worth the small fee! This is going on the Halloween To-Do list for years to come!

I'll get you my pretty

Matt was Charlie Chaplin for Halloween as a kid, for $3.95 he could bring it back as an adult.

Thinkin of growing out the 'stache - comments?

Too realistic.. coincidence?

Individual chicken pot pies with harvest leaves and pumpkins for added flair.

Chocolate Jack O'Lantern cake - heavy on the brows

Creepy man lady at the 13th door haunted house

Delicious spread of sugar cookies that Matt made for his Sunday School class.

Posing with the delightful treats (and lighted apron)

We spent Saturday at Elitch's Fright Fest (Six Flags) - who knew if you arrived close to the opening hour (noon), you can run right onto all of the rides. We had a ball.

Too cheap to make the actual purchase - figured a photo of a photo was just as good.

Yummy spider web cookies that Matt made for my co-workers to say thank you for volunteering for the Key To The Cure (event that I planned).

And there's more... stay tuned!

Hip hip Hooray - Halloween is here!!

October has arrived and is in full force at the Jones household! Beginning October 1 we busted out the Halloween decor creating the mood. Friday night we saw Halloween Dreams at The Vintage Theatre (not fabulous, but decent and local, small scale, live theatre is always fun!). Saturday we did some Halloween home decor shopping, then to the Wizard's Chest for costume ideas. Following which we cruised to the Harvest Festival - which consisted of opportunities to make your own scarecrow, hayrides, a pumpkin patch, stilt walking, sack races, kissing booths and lots of delicious Fall treats (kettle corn, home made root beer, apple cinnamon donuts, etc...).

Our own kissing booth.

That night I helped Natalie and some of her friends get ready for homecoming, then Matt, Joni, Christine and I watched Poltergeist.

Below are a bunch of our Halloween decorations pictured...

The table setting with the new skeleton hands to protect our glasses.

We decorated our Halloween tree this evening, made of dead spray painted branches. Love those little baskets!!

The eyeball is always watching...

Devil apple cider dispenser, careful... it's hot.

Pretty, sparkly skull
