Happy Halloween!

Our little pup has spent the last few years as a lady bug on Halloween, but this year, my parents surprised her with a pumpkin costume! It's fitting, as I call her my little punkin', and of course, she looks adorable in it. (Never mind the fact that the hood is a bit big and may have covered her eyes the first time we tried it on her, which caused her to run into a few things.)

This afternoon afternoon, many of the shops in Ballard will be handing out candy to trick-or-treaters and in years past, there were tons of kids and doggies in costume, walking around in Ballard during this time. Joan is coming over and we're planning to take our pumpkin out to enjoy the crowds.

Whatever you are doing, have a safe and happy Halloween!
