Happy Halloween!

Hey everyone! I hope you all have a Great Halloween Weekend!

Warning-proud mama moments here:
I have two sons in their mid 20's, one story for each:@) When they were little we always had a Halloween party. One of the highlights was when I'd gather the kids around and read The Pumpkin Smasher. We bought a paperback from a book club at school. I read this for several years then during a move, it disappeared.

Last year I searched on-line but couldn't find it. One Sunday my son came to dinner not only with the book, but a library edition covered hard back!!! Thanks Jim! This book has a Copyright of 1972 and originally sold for $4.41 so I'm joining the Vintage Halloween Blog Party!
I'm also joining Favorite Things Friday, Inspiration Friday and Junkin' Finds Party
because he found it for a song on-line!

I love my dancing pigs header and will never change it,
but the "party pig" on the end wanted to be Santa for Halloween...
My son asked a co-worker to add the hat-Thanks Jay!
They're working on making it big enough for my holiday header-yay!

Quick tip: clean the lid of your fresh cut Jack-O-Lantern then liberally shake cinnamon on it, 
it will smell like pumpkin pie as it's lit.

Never under estimate the magic of every day life-
Happy Halloween everyone:@)
