"A (wo)man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of (her)his life in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of beautiful God has implanted in the human soul."- Goethe

Oh No! Not You Again!

Those crazy Nielsons crashed another Halloween dinner this year, and they are getting out of control, I tell you what. Introducing...



Waldo. Thank goodness he was finally found. It turns out that his cardboard camera was the most delicious thing for dinner.



Madame Ting-ting sang a fun gong-shi song to entertain the guests and impressed all by counting in Chinese and saying essential phrases like "That's too expensive" and "Let's make out."



The mad Scot made an appearance.



It looks like Uncle Cletus gained some weight since he last graced us with his presence, but we still love him anyway because he's family.



I never knew the ancient peoples of America had spectacles, be it appears to be true.



A fat-bummed monkey was seen waddling around the premises.



I wish I had a giant set of dominoes like the one that attended our dinner.



A bossy pilgrim...but we thought she was a witch so we had a trial then dumped her in a pond.



Here's a cowboy. I know, it's hard to tell, but it's only because he couldn't find his hat. When he puts on his black shirt, though, he's a bumblebee.



Hairy Kendall



Sweet Alyssa



And someone who introduced himself as "I'm tired!" Doesn't that look like the comfiest costume?

Anyway, it was a lighthearted festivity, and we enjoyed everyone's company regardless of how true to character they stayed. Does your family have any awesome Halloween traditions? I'd love to hear what they are!
