A belated Happy Halloween and a trip to the Cheesebarn

  Belated Happy Halloween! I was supposed to hand out candy yesterday,but it was pouring rain all day. The way our house is configured we only use the back door to go in and out,and to hand out candy I sort of just have to take a chair out to the sidewalk. We hardly had any trick or treaters the last year or two,and with the rain I anticipated even fewer. Plus it was cold and I have a cold. I also remembered that Ken would only have yesterday and next Monday off for a trip out of town,m and I still wanted to buy Ivy some of her favourite cheese from the cheese shop that is about an hour away,before we go up to her college to see her on her birthday next week. So Ken and I took a little shopping trip instead of handing out candy.I feel guilty about it, since our kids always went trick or treating, but,well,you already heard all my excuses.
  I had planned to take some Halloween photos for the blog,but recent occurrences prevented me from getting it done in time. So Tammy World went with us yesterday,dressed in her cowgirl costume,to hopefully get a chance to pose for a picture.

Play spot the Tammy World.

There she is!

 You can see from the pictures how dark and rainy it was.

And how wet her hair was!

 Tammy was soaked by the time her shoot was finished.

But at least we were only out in it for a few minutes. The camera lens steamed up while I was taking the pictures,so a lot of them came out too misty to use.

Her costume was too big,so she had to hike the skirt to her arm pits and fold the blouse up.That's why it's poking open. I was in a hurry, as I was getting wet and it was cold.At least it didn;t take the 2 hours trick or treat does.

Then of course the internet kept going out last night so I couldn't get these posted! And there was more rain today,ALL day.  And it's colder than ever.  And my back and shoulders have been killing me. The cold makes it worse. I'm never going to get my leaves raked.
