Linda's Chatty Blog: HAPPY HALLOWEEN

The first picture is one someone sent on to me and I tracked down the location and it is in Woodstock, I love all the lite up pumpkins!

We are joining in A Fanciful Twists Virtual Halloween Party! This is the first year I have attended and it sounds like a lot of fun!

My Chatty Cathy's celebrate every year, Since my kids are all grown up now, I compensate and dress up the dolls these days!

Katie Effanbee is trying to tell Chatty there is someone or something behind her!

This photo was taken at my friend Loretta's house last Halloween, Loretta always has her house done up so pretty for the holidays. My bleuette Madeline also came for tea.

One of our local stores is selling all kinds of neat witches and things to celebrate the occasion.

My little Bleuette Emmy hopes everyone has a Happy Halloween and we both would like you to visit Vanessa and get the links for all the other participants in this virtual Halloween Party! Thanks for stopping by and please leave a comment and I will try and get to everyone else's blogs to see what you have in store for this lovely virtual party!

To Believe, Author unknown

To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning.
It is to trust that miracles happen, and dreams really do come true.
To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds,To know the wonder of a stardust sky and the wisdom of the man in the moon.
To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,The innocence of a child's eyes and the beauty of an aging hand,for it is through their teachings we learn to love.
To believe is to find the strength and courage that lies within us, When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again.
To believe is to know we are not alone, That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.
To believe is to know that wonderful surprises are just waiting to happen, And all our hopes and dreams are within reach.
If only we believe.

Laume said...: I'm old enough to remember Chatty Kathy, although I never owned one myself. I think I was just a smidgen too old when they came out... my sister might have had one though. A cupcake? Don't mind if I do. I'll try not to leave crumbs as I head on out to other party posts - thanks!
