That pandemic of 2020 certainly threw off the count for annual events.
No matter, as the event went on this year as planned!
I had tried to get my youngest brother to come with me, especially as today was his birthday:58 and he loves Halloween.
However, 'twas to no avail!
That's why I took this photo and sent it to him after I sang "Happy Birthday" to him!
Maybe I should have sent him a video, so he'd have the sound effects, too!
I helped make sure this group of ghouls hanging from the porch rafters would shake, rattle, and roll around!
Glad to see those batteries are still full of juice.
(smile!)
Dawn had come running up to me, arms wide open, with a great big hug of greeting!
What a fabulous welcome!
I told her I was looking forward to seeing her inside troupes of ghouls - lol!!!
I think that tall fellow is a brother-in-law, but don't hold me to that.
As for the Boney on the trike, I have no idea who he is - he definitely isn't one of the ghouls I get to manhandle on AA and AAA days!
Maybe I'll ask Chris about him sometime and get his backstory, maybe not.
There are so many others to get to know!
I got hugs from all the Soup Party ladies that were there: newlywed Michanne, Margaret of Belk's, Yvette of Earth Day, Gina of NYC, Elaine of Chicago, and, of course, Susan from next door!
I got hugs from my outlaw Bunny and her Steve, too, even sitting with them as we munched on Kenny's ribs and low country boil!
There he is, too, right beside Chris as the pumpkin judging was about to begin, getting many well-deserved kudos from the crowd!
As I was saying good night to Dawn, this is what she said.
"I told Bunny tonight that the best gift she ever gave me was introducing me to you."
That's one of the best things anyone ever said to me!
Dawn is the best gift Bunny every gave me, too.
And to think, we both knew that first Oscar party, when Dawn saw me working on the Oscar trivia... and I was thrilled she had that game!
How blessed I am!
