Halloween slideshow

As I've mentioned before, we live in a small town. It's actually a city, but the population is only about 1,400. Anyway, many people go all out on Halloween with their decorations and it's a tradition that the Commons get rolled with toilet paper on Halloween. The Commons is the area in the heart of town that is park like with a huge field that is used for soccer. I often wonder if the city minds cleaning up this mess every year...

The house of some friends of ours always has a creepy yard, I mean really creepy. The husband was a set builder in Los Angeles before they moved here. I have a video of their house so you can see what I'm talking about. There's nothing like being there though and walking up the sidewalk with the fog rolling out of the (grave)yard and the creepy sounds. Another house always does something huge too. Last year they had a circus theme with a clown and games in tents. This year they did Elvis. They had a stage set up, had a showing of Elvis performing in Hawaii and gave out lei's. Very cool. I got a scarf with Elvis's face drawn on it. Another house had a Beetlejuice theme. It was VERY cool. They made a model of our downtown and their own house. It was awesome. It was full dark when we got there so my pictures weren't that great. My kids don't know how lucky they are to live in a place like this.
