Halloween 2010 #1

Halloween started early. A lady I work with brought her two grandchildren to the office. Her grandson posed proudly for a photo.

His sister was having none of it.

20101029_5

They liked my atomic fireballs though.

Later I went to the Halloween Party SuperPizzaBoy’s school was having. Yep, you heard me, Halloween Party! Yeah private school. For those of you aghast at the thought of a Haloween Part, as far as I know none of the little devils has turned into a satan worshiper, yet.

Sweetie was there helping out. She is here, there, and everywhere. She doesn’t stay still long enough to get a non-blurred photo.

They had a pumpkin raffle and I won two of them.

20101029_21

You should have heard all the grumbling, “I can’t believe he won two of them.” Hey I bought five tickets and only won two pumpkins. I was counting on at least three.

But you know what the big news of the night was?

20101029_23

Bonnie and Clyde made a special appearance!

20101029_24

Aren’t they cute? Bonnie especially is very sweet.

I just love Halloween. How is yours going?

Halloween Serendipity #2

I found an old box camera on the floor of SuperPizzaBoy’s closet a while back. I took it in to get processed and found among other photos these of SuperPizzaBoy from several years ago.

He has always been a happy kid and he has always loved Halloween.

R1-03931-022A

I think Sweetie took these photos, not me.

R1-03931-021A

We couldn’t quite figure out how old he was in these pics.

R1-03931-017A

Its like we were able to go back in time and retrieve just one warm Fall day at a pumpkin patch.

Hey, do you have any old film around your house needing processed? Go find it and get it processed. I’m glad I did.

Halloween Run Down and Run

Last night was Freaky Fun Night at SuperPizzaBoy’s school. Everybody had a great time.

We started out early evening with an almost full moon.

20091031_12

SuperPizzaBoy was a ghostbuster. He has his work cut out for him, the place was full of ghosts.

20091031_13

SPB’s friend Nicholas was Zeus
20091031_15

SPB scarfed down some pizza. But, is that really news?

20091031_16

Sweetie was a Gypsy, a cute Gypsy. Sorry for the blurry photo Sweetie. I like it though.

20091031_26

There were games. I made this last year. It has seen lots of use at various events.

20091031_29

SPB’s other friend Quinn got the Scariest Costume award. He scared me, I’ll tell you that.

20091031_30

The joint was jumping!!
20091031_17

Sweetie helped organize the event. I sat in on a meeting with her and the other women organizing the event. They were amazing. You know, I’m thinking about that. I’m tired of hearing about Obama this and W that and Bill this and so on. How about we get Michelle and Laura together and let them run things.I tell you what, we would have decent health care and a balanced budget. The Afghanistan and Iraq wars would get figured out as well. We guys, we just need to be told what to do, and we are fine.

Hey, I’m not done! (Yeah, well I am you mutter) I ran a race today. The Tulsa Run 15k. Its my 16th. This won’t take long.

Here is the starting line. It took me about 3 minutes to get here when the gun sounded.
20091031_47

I only took one picture during the race. This is at about 6K I think.
20091031_50

We finished in front of the BOK Center.

Runners get candy bars courtesy of Quik Trip. This year they had Snickers bars left so I grabbed a couple.

At the finish line we had a band led by Oklahoma’s own Grady Nichols.

20091031_52

They had a very long line for the beer. I hate beer lines. I like it when you just mob the beer truck. I’m pretty good at getting to the front. I don’t elbow anybody. I find a seam, turn sideways, and move through. Square up, find another seam, and repeat. Works wonderfully. Not much can be done with a line.

I got my cup of suds. I think they were running out. The people doing the serving seemed to be in a sour mood. Runners can be pretty demanding. We like to get our moneys worth of free beer.

So right now Sweetie is carving a pumpkin and we are going to go trick or treating tonight.

Halloween Prize

I generally ignore office parties and decorations and such but hey I love Halloween so when the office had a pumpkin decorating contest I decided what the hay, I’ll enter.

So I bought a couple of pumpkins and a gourd and set them out..

And I won!

Halloween Prize

Now, don’t be smirking especially when I say that they had three prizes and three entries.

A prize is a prize.

I am now an award winning pumpkin decorator.

Have you won any prizes lately? I want to hear the details!
