The DeSpain Gang's Halloween Party


We invited some kids over for a Halloween Party. 
Before we knew it there was a Ninja, Superman, Dash and a little Indian in our pumpkin Patch! 
 They were all looking for just the right pumpkin to carve!


It was the perfect evening to sit around a fire and roast hotdogs.


Then onto carving our pumpkins! 
What a great evening...
wish the eastern gang could have found some brooms to fly out and be with us! 
 Missed you all.

Halloween at Grama Polly's


We had some rather scary visitors tonight! 
A Headless Man, a Vampire, Minnie Mouse, Dorothy and her Lion
 and the Witch!!!
...and a little boy who just wanted to carve a pumpkin.


Lucky I have a
really
scary
spook
alley
 right in my garden
 
There are witches and ghosts and spiders, oh my!, and is that a big bat behind that tree???


And...lucky there are some pumpkin carvers around,
because.. there were four little jack-o-lanterns just waiting to get some faces. 
 
Have a Happy and Scary Halloween!!!!

Gardner Village and some Silly Witches


When pumpkins start appearing everywhere,
 there's nothing left to do...


but,
 become a witch!!!!! 
 Isn't that what everyone does at this time of year??
But of course.
WITCH POLLY

So my other witchy friend, Pat and I flew out to Gardner Village,
 found our favorite shop
 (Vintage Chic, it's where all fashionable witches go, you know). 
 There, we found other witches,
 Pat danced,
 and we tried to keep warm! 
And then, because we were exhausted,
because we are grandma's and very old
witches...
we
FLEW HOME!!!
 


Come see us tonight
i'll be there with another
witch at
Vintage Chic

THE ADVENTURES OF THE WILLOW VIEW WITCHES

Ok, so here's what happened as the Willow View Witches flew out spreading good will and joy yesterday.
They gathered together and decided just which way to fly...


made a circle around, just to make sure the old brooms were in working order.


touched down to visit a few of our near and dear friends in the neighborhood before heading off to scare Aunt Marie!
Then off for a photo op at a lovely little retailer in a neighboring village.

There was a party later on that evening with many other strange and endearing characters. We fit right in. It's so nice to live in a place where regular people suddenly turn ghastly - oh, I mean ghostly for a few weeks each year. Actually we three witches are just quiet little women who normally go about our business....

Today, it's as if it were all a dream- a good dream or a bad dream, we just don't know?!? Pat has to get to the business of playing the piano, Colleen, who doesn't like to perform, is wondering what got into her? And I'm still trying to figure out just what to do with my hair?!

Not really, we're all so exhausted we're in a coma.
 Hey - who's that other lady in red?

DOUBLE DOUBLE TOIL AND TROUBLE!

Double, Double toil and lots of trouble!


After having my achilles tendon ripped
(thought witches could cast spells and make nasty injuries go away?)
And a horrible case of the flu,
(Where are all those potions you hear so much about?)

Polly the garden witch
will fly this halloween.
