Happy Halloween 2009

Halloween has now come and gone. Deirdre decided to be Cleopatra this year........boy was she cute! As always, I love to decorate for my child and the kids in the neighborhood seem to like it too. We only went to the few houses of people that we have known forever, went to the church Harvest Carnival and then up to my grandparents and uncle's house. So, we had a fun and long night. Here are the pictures that I took and a few short video clips at the carnival.

Deirdre and our little ghost.

With the pumpkins.

All of my masterpieces!

So cute as Cleopatra!

Can you tell I love to carve pumpkins?

Deirdre's Class Halloween Party

That time of the year where all the kids get to wear their costumes to school and get loaded up with sugar!! I took cookies to Deirdre's class and got a few pictures. Enjoy!!

Path of An Accident

About 1am last night we were awaken by the familiar sound of a car crash. For those who know our neighborhood.........this will look familiar to you. The car came off Highway 4, so follow the pictures..........

You can see the tire marks from the highway.

The car then crossed Cavallo road.

Took out the bus bench on the way...........

I do believe they left this behind!

Took out all the fencing here.........our street is on the right.

Went over this fence on Sunset Drive..........

Ending when they hit this silver car in the driveway of this home.
