GREEN WITCH























There’s a goblin at my window.
A monster by my door.
The pumpkin at my table 
Keeps on smiling more and more.
There’s a ghost who haunts my bedroom,
A witch whose face is green.
They used to be my family,
Till they dressed for Halloween.

TRICK OR TREAT - 2014











We had some pretty awesome Halloween parties at our home in Las Sendas. The house was a Santa Fe style and had 13 doors that went to the outside so we made good use of them and had the kids trick or treat to each of the doors while the adults ran from door to door inside to hand out the candy. And then we'd repeat it again until the candy bowls were empty. The kids loved it and it became a tradition that we carried on for the 10 years that we lived there.

October 2014 - We didn't know it at the time but this would be the last Halloween party that we would have in this wonderful home. We moved in April 2015. We no longer have the 13 doors to trick or treat to. But this won't be the end of our Halloween parties - we will just have to begin new traditions. Our grandkids pictured here (oldest to youngest): Bailey, Alex, Hailee, Logan, Morgan, Adam, Autumn, Miles, Abbie, Enzo, Kyle, and Bradley. Missing our G-kids in Texas: Reed, Quinci, and Izzie.

2014 Miles Family Halloween Party


Miles Halloween Party 2014













On Saturday, Oct 19, 2014 we held our traditional Miles Family Halloween Party. The kids' costumes were creative and cute.  Amy delighted us all with her crazy hair and glasses. I guess 4 kids can drive a mother a bit MAD!! So Amy was Mad Mother, Bailey (14) - Homeless Child, Alex (12) - a peace loving Phil Robertson-Duck Dynasty- (when he wears his wooly beard), Adam (8) - a ninja skeletor, and Enzo (3) was the best Batman.

This page was created with Scrapyrus Designs' Salem Boolevard.

The Witch Is In



White Nana and Papa were here for General Conference so we had an early Halloween party Friday night with 10 of our 13 grandkids and their parents. (We all missed Reed, Quinci, Isabel, Rob & Melis.)

At our house we have 11 doors that go to the outside so the gkids trick or treated to all the doors while their parents ran from door to door inside to hand out the candy and other treats. Then we went up on the balcony to watch a spooky movie and ate chocolate drizzled popcorn and cookies that Melissa made.

The gkids looked adorable in their costumes and this was the first time ever that I dressed up too. It was a fun evening!!

Fall Fest

Hailee and Logan's school held a "Fall Fest" carnival last weekend and the family had a fun time with trick or treating to classrooms, face painting, food, and a fun halloween photo. Too bad Daniel had to leave just before they took this adorable picture. Cute Family!!

Too Cute To Spook!!

THREE LITTLE PUMPKINS

Three little pumpkins sitting on a gate,
The first one said, "Oh my it's getting late!"
The second one said, "I'm ready for some fun!"
The third one said, "Let's run and run and run!"

AHH-WHOOOOOooooo went the wind,
And OUT went the lights
And the three little pumpkins rolled out of sight.

BUMBLEBEE BAILEY

Here is a scrapbook page of sweet Bailey when she was 16 months old. She was the cutest Bumblebee ever!!
It was her first "real" Halloween that she was old enough to go Trick or Treating for candy, but like a true bumblebee - she was more interested in the flowers!

MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!


The WIZARD OF OZ is my favorite movie of all time!! It was shown on TV once a year, every year, when I was growing up. I especially related to Dorothy as most of my family/cousins lived in Kansas and we knew all about the scariness of tornados. My dad loves the W.o.O. too and continues to quote many lines from the movie - "What makes a muskrat guard his musk? Courage!"

The Wizard of Oz is celebrating it's 70th Anniversary. There was a special showing at our Hawkins Theater last Wednesday - one showing only. Daniel reserved 4 tickets for me. I was SO EXCITED to go!! But as it turned out, we weren't able to go so we gave the tickets to Minora (Greg's secretary) to take her 3 children. The next morning at work she was excited to tell us that the movie was WONDERFUL - her children, who had never seen it, absolutely LOVED it. Her little daughter said, "This is my new favorite movie!" I'm so glad that they enjoyed it and I agree with Minora's daughter!! This is my all time favorite movie!!

HALLOWEEN DECOR - 2009

I have been having a blast decorating for Halloween! I know - - it's really early - - but it takes me so long to finish that the holiday has come and gone if I don't start early.

So - - here is a little sample, with more to come as I edit the pics.

PS - Yes, I know I need photos in the frames on the mantel and Yes, I know there is a jack-ball sitting on a tree branch. (the latter is Greg's contribution to the decorating)
