To say thank you, seems such an underpowered statement, but Thank You!!! Christopher, Zack, Laura, Jeremy, Emily, Luke, Steve, Scott, and of course my mother.
I could not have pulled off such a wonderful night without you all! I am eternally grateful for all of your help, professional behavior, and your willingness to put up with some of my more eccentric behaviors and requests.
We had 339 kids, and 5 dogs that made it to the porch this year, shy of last years total by 9 kids. Never the less we put on one incredible show and I could not have done it without all of your help.
What are you all doing next Halloween? 🙂
Laura and her camera were everywhere taking WONDERFUL shots of the action, which I will post soon, Jeremy took video for me which I will look over and post some of that when I get the chance, and Scott also took a bunch of pictures and once I get them I will post them as well.

It sounds like you had a LOT of FUN. I would have loved to see your creations. It’s good there were many pix & video – I am so anxious to see all of them.
I think it’s so cool how “Everyone” celebrates on my birthday! 🙂

Glad to hear you had a nice turn out. There were a couple of dispays down here you would have enjoyed. The big spot to trick or treat is “The Lake Yard”. It is a loop of really nice, expensive houses that goes around the town’s lake. B/C it is such a popular spot, local businesses sponser some of the houses. I think you would have liked the one the funeral home had, but I have to admit, they would have greatly benefitted from your expertise. They had some good props, including a body popping out of a casket, but it wasn’t really scary. Another house had a glass sunroom with some pretty cool decorations inside.
I didn’t even think to take my camera with or I would have sent you pictures. Sorry.
Anyway, can’t wait to see your pics!
