Boo-Ti-Full Hallowe'en Displays

Although the weather has been wet & windy for the last few days....we spent an enjoyable evening with grand baby...while her parents enjoyed their anniversary & celebrated at a local upscale restaurant.  In the meantime...we entertained our little with building blocks and games....and after supper...we bundled up and went to check out some of the Hallowe'en displays in their neighbourhood!  She loves to go for walks...and the weather turned out to be enjoyable....


Keeping in mind...grand baby is young...and some blow ups might be a bit frightening...we didn't get too close...


And she had no desire to get close to any of these characters!!  I thought perhaps Miss Peppa Pig (one of her favourites) might entice her...but she was content to check them out across the street...hanging safely on to Grampie's hand...


We understood...these creatures could be a bit overwhelming to a little one...so I crept in a bit closer for some photos...


She did however....enjoying seeing this photo of Peppa on her Mimi's phone....but that was as close as she wanted to get....


We enjoyed our stroll around her neighbourhood...and once back home it was time for pjs and snacks.  Her parents arrived home in time for her bed time routine.  We enjoyed our time with her...she's absolutely adorable...(spoken as a true grandmother)....

Yesterday....it was rainy & windy...all day.  We had hoped to walk the trails...but Ma Nature had other plans...we took in a movie in the afternoon.  Which lasted three and a half hours!!!  I'm certain Mr. Seventies nodded off a time or two....

I came across adorable slippers by Sketchers....with memory foam insoles!  I can't wait to receive them...they are so cute and hopefully are really comfortable!  I'm in need of some extra warm sleep pants for wearing around the house....the fleece leggings I ordered are great for walking...but since losing weight I'm in need of "lounge sleep pants".....


I'll share this precious photo of my girl....just chillin' in the sun....and keeping a close eye on her Mama!
She is never too far from my side....


Be sure and check out later today over at Susan's blog https://betweennapsontheporch.net/ later today for Metamorphosis Monday.

And Tuesdays are busy blog party days with Marty at https://www.astrollthrulife.net/ and Lyndsey's super fun blog https://perfectlyimperfect-lwl.com/ for Tell It To Me Tuesday!

Thanks so much for spending some of your time with me...I truly appreciate it!  Are you getting ready for Hallowe'en?  Do you get a vast number of trick or treaters?  It's the one day of the year I wish we lived in an area where there are a lot of kids!  Mr. Seventies loves Hallowe'en and we enjoy seeing all the cute & scary costumes.  Since we live on such a busy road....we seldom have many visit...but take our treats to daughter's house...and while they are out with grand baby....we get to hand out treats and see all the costumes!

Til next time.....

  1. Oh Charlotte, it sounds like you had a lovely time with grandbaby and of course she's adorable! And I'd be scared of all those inflatable too. The new slippers are so cute and congrats on the weight loss - it's no easy feat. We've had quite a bit more rain than usual in October as well, and we currently have snow. Ugh. Leisel is indeed precious. Take care over there my friend!

  2. I heard you've been getting snow there, Kim! Mr. Seventies niece lives in Calgary....and she reports it's been cold there as well. Not looking forward to the snow & cold!! Have an awesome week....

  3. It's so fun how thorough the Halloween decorations are by you! We are lucky to see a pumpkin on the porch around our neighborhood. We don't get a lot of trick or treaters, but I have young kids so we take them into town. Thanks for linking up with Tell It To Me Tuesday, I hope to see you again this week!
