Good times in Chicago this weekend. I loved walking through the streets admiring the pretty old buildings speckled with orange pumpkins. On Halloween night the 6 of us dressed as The Running of the Bulls, sprinting our way around Wrigleyville. It was especially nice to be with friends.

one of my very favorite spooky movies. Someday I want to visit the real town of Sleepy Hollow for Halloween.

I'm going to be pretty sad when it's over. Last year's was a bit more eventful - with one of the best haunted corn mazes I could hope for...but this one has been good too. I bet Matt will be relieved not to be pulling the car over at every spookily decorated house though.

I've wanted one of these crystal heads for a while, and once Josephine had one, of course I had to finally go get one for myself. But I can't make a whole awesome Halloween display as nice as hers. Sometimes I kinda feel like Josephine is my cool older sister that I want to copy, only I'm the older one:)  I used to get soo mad a my younger sister Tura sometimes for wanting the same things I did...luckily we laugh about that now...

Covered bridges make me think of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman. I'm hoping I can find some covered bridges that are a little spookier than this one...

This little ghost pin from the Etsy booth was one of my favorite things I got from the Chicago Renegade Craft Fair. It reminded me of how fun it will be to have a Midwest Halloween.
