Final Halloween preparations

I was able to complete my spider when I got home. I hope mom appreciates the 8 legs! 

This has become a classic for me. A man (stuffed with leaves) holding his head in his lap. (He should probably tie those shoes!)

 And a final picture of my ghost circle, now complete with the fire they are dancing around!

Cats

The cats are hanging out close to each other more often now. This first one is a little family portrait we did (as you can see, though, Shep is blocking Paws' vision of Ichi!) and the one below occurred when Paws had been sleeping on our bed and didn't notice Ichi come up next to her! He didn't bother her at all, just sat real close, but then when she woke up she left. He still tries to play with her once in a while, which she does not appreciate! But for the most part they are pretty amicable. 

Halloween Preparations, cont.

The Halloween preparations continue!

Shep bought me an awesome door mat:

 I added the orange and black wreath I made last year to our front door:

 We carved pumpkins! Shep's is on the left, it looks scared and goofy. Our friend Joanna's is in the middle, it is a silhouette of Alfred Hitchcock. Mine (right and below) looks pretty evil!

 My circle of ghosts is complete, except for the fire (Christmas lights) that they'll be dancing around:

My spider does have 8 legs, but hasn't been hung up yet, because I am worried about it lasting too long in the rain and wind.
