Halloween Memories

There won't be much text in this post - I've been going through the pictures and this is what I found for Halloween...  As always, clicking on the picture will give you a closer look...


Mom made me this crepe paper dress for a Halloween Party,  I can't imagine how crinkly that felt.  

Me and my first pumpkin

Guess that was the year of the clowns!  A small plastic bag was good enough for Cheryl and I.


Notice I had a white cap on under the red one - it was probably freezing.  I just recently saw this bag on Pinterest, I recognized it right away - looks like I used it for at least two years!

Using the bag as a gypsy.

The one time I ever had a store bought costume - I don't know how I got my coat on under it - I loved that costume!!!


Me, Debbie and Cheryl


I didn't have time to go through the many MacKay albums when I was home, even though this isn't Halloween, Gary is still in costume on the pony!


Fantasyland, PEI - now called King's Castle - Darcy is lurking around the canteen


Carla looked so cute as an old lady!!

She was a hunchback one year

And a robot, another year.



How did Darcy see with that mask on?  I bet he didn't like it!!  

Darcy's first Halloween - he looks bundled up!

Darcy was a ladybug, did I really put pink earmuffs on him??  Carla was a witch, a costume, which was repeated many times.


Carla - as a witch, again

Carla and her friend, Bobby

Carla, Kristy, & Heidi


Gary painted all the bones on a black sweat suit - that was a good costume!!

Dracula

Darcy as an elf


That was a great pumpkin person!!
