There are three years of Halloween party pictures for my son Sean's birthday.

11th in 2003, 12th in 2004 and 13th in 2005... Sean just turned 16 this year, so... no more kids halloween parties for him! Enjoy the pictures!

autumnThe Joys of Autumn... the trees changing magnificent colors.... from green, to red, then orange and yellow. They either gently fall to the ground or a strong wind will come by and woosh them away...

Sean's birthday is exactly 10 days before Halloween, therefore it's entirely appropriate to implement the best of that holiday into a theme party. I mean, what kid doesn't like to dress up in costume?

Highlights of the various parties were apple bobbing, making "Messy Mounds" using basic Rice Krispie treats ingredients and dying them red and green. We also did the 3 legged race and egg carrying race. Good old fashioned fun!
