Halloween '08

Emmett="wolfman/ape/bandit/freakazoid" (love it...this was actually costume #2 after the Johnny Depp costume worn at school!)

Silas="babyranger/samurai/robinhood" (he actually likes this costume...a last minute throw together, thanks to Emmettand his love of Rangers Apprentice!)

Mac="reverse candy machine" (very cool...also costume #3 after a cowgirl at the dance and a "noisy bell lady" at school today)

(you must click on this picture to get the full effect of Emmett I think)

Fun night for all. Matt took Mac and Emmett around with the

gang and I went 4 times to see the "scary kitty" house with Silas.

Then came home to eat way too many peanut butter cups.

how change happens...

(from yet another Keillor article that asks how minds are changing about Obama)

"... how can they possibly go for a Harvard Law graduate from the South Side of Chicago whose last name is Obama, for crying out loud?
They can and they will. Colin Powell was right when he called the guy a transformational candidate. We walk through the door and we close it behind us and the simplicity of it is dazzling. That's how it happens."

just love every thing he writes...

...click here for a great article from
Salon.com by Garrison Keillor 

(you may have to click on"Enter Salon"

in the top right corner to get to the article...)

Every week he writes something
short, sweet, and great (look under 

"opinion" to find previous articles). It's 

worth reading much of what he's written 

during this election season actually.

I just LOVE HIM and Prairie Home Companion

and completely agree with his brand of democrat.
