Halloween

The Grim Reaper and Our Little Snow White

Our friends; Rob and Becky Livingston, Kim and Larry McElvain, and Deb and Jerry Mundy spent Halloween with us. Our neighborhood is truly a sight to behold on Halloween. You really have to be here to appreciate exactly what it is I 'm talking about. People actually drive in from all over Norfolk, just to trick-or-treat here. Given the fact that Grant and I are huge Halloween fans, we certainly picked THE perfect neighborhood to live in. Gone are the days of ringing doorbells, everyone here sits outside to pass out candy. Most of the people here also go all out to decorate their homes. We even had a guy chasing people around with a chainsaw, without the chain of course. Grant downloaded a bunch of scary tunes and sounds and played it outside for all to hear, just to add to our cheesy atmosphere. A lot of the comments came from the kids who thought our house was haunted. We also a had a small fog machine to help out. Anyway, we all had a great time and the kids made out like bandits in the candy department. I hope your Halloween was just as fun and safe as ours was. Happy late Halloween!

Keeping in Touch

Hi All! Happy November! Can you believe it is almost the year 2008? I can't! Some friends of mine were an inspiration for this blog. Since we live so far away from most of our friends and all of our family, I thought that this would be a better way to keep you all updated on the Highland Clan. Not to mention, taking some of the pressure off my wonderful husband who has been far better at keeping in touch than I have.

A few of the pictures some of you may already have seen, but I hope you will still enjoy the blog. Please let me know any feed back when you can. I hope everyone is doing well, and please let's stay in better touch!
