Halloween 2009

The annual temporary "Get off my yard, you little bastards" Trick-or-Treat fence.


The pumpkin pre-carve as I waited for TorT to begin


Stenciled pumpkin is ready to be carved


Done, but not lit


"They call it Thrillerrrrrrr"


"Who asked for The Swine Flu?" I carved this one ("Dr. Bernardi" from Twilight Zone)for my friend B's party last night.


My friend B and her pal, Pecker


Mrs CB went as Kurt from "Glee"


"Shoulda put a ring on it"...hate that song now


I went as Sue Slyvester from "Glee".


Sue is not amused.












Two of our favorite gay boys

Some pics of the moon for Mrs CB:








As soon as the skies cleared, it got really cold, and we headed home in time to see the Yankees start kicking ass.

Good weekend even though we are both still alittle tired from being sick. Today is all about grading for Mrs CB and writing for me. Yay!

Great pics, Babe.

Thanks for the moon-ing.

That is some serious pumpkin carving. Did you save the seeds and roast them?

And woot, Sue Sylvester! She's my OTP all by herself.

You two look....mahvelous!!! And you, cabenson, could sooo be a blonde. *g* Great pics as always. Thanks for sharing.

Btw: Is that the infamous lawn that someone, who shall remain nameless, mowed while off from school with the flu?!?

I already commented on these on FB, but again, I must say, your Sue and Kurt are freaking hi-LAR-ious. LOVE IT!

So by your costumes, I'll assume you'll be happy to know that shatterpath is writing Glee fic? And yes, she's trying to get me to write it, too...

Every year, I am more astounded by your Jack-o-Lantern carvings!

You make me want to dress up and party with the grown ups. Your pumpkins look fantastic!

Wow, dude, those pumpkins are just amazing--I particularly love the swine flu one--I immediately thought TWILIGHT ZONE! even before reading your caption. Great job! And the moon shots (hyuk!) are lovely too.

Should've guessed sooner that you would be Sue from Glee! Ha! You should wear that outfit to work.

It's a shame Mrs. CB didn't wear that outfit during her NYC visit, eh? :)

[stargazer1960.livejournal.com]

Yes, looks nice. Doesn't it?

[trancer21.livejournal.com]

Ha! This is awesome. You guys are awesome! Looks like ya'll had a ton of fun.

Fantastic pictures. The moon shots were particularly beautiful (and haunting, too, through the bare trees like that). Honest-to-God loved the fence! I'm curious if it actually kept the little bastards off the grass. Nice pumpkins, too. I'm lucky if I can get a standard face, though I admit to not being crazy about carving much at all. But I'll eat the seeds - if someone else roasts and salts them, of course.

I stood out on my porch with the candy caldron dressed as Professor McGonagall and was surprised when more than one person knew who I was besides "a witch."

God, the fun is over. Christmas is tomorrow.
