Twas the night before Halloween

 


Twas the night before Halloween
when what should appear, but a sight I had never seen. 

There I was, while Beau took a pee,
when suddenly a ghostly spirit, I did see.

I was poking my phone, trying to find Night Mode,
and just as I found it, I was so scared, I thought I would CODE.

I screamed really loud,
and that spirit just vanished, into a cloud.

You remind me of that old ad for the movie Psycho. Where the lead actress is letting out a big scream. Janet Leigh, I think that was her name. Very cool ghoul! And love your SCREAM! Perfect for Halloween eve.

I need your imagination over here. Been invited to a Halloween party by staff at the place I am staying. Halloween costume competition! Who travels half way around the world with a Halloween outfit in their luggage (on the off-chance)? xxx TM (who doesn't even have make-up!)

Those ghosts have a tendency to hang around for a while, so be careful!

My dear, what big eyes you have. Crazy, no matter what time of year, things look different at night.

SCAAARRREEEYYY!!!Maybe that's why Mom doesn't like to walk us at night:)

You were spot on with your comment about Timber having perfect paw positioning in his selfie. Misty and Lightning cannot do a proper sit because of their torn CCLs and subsequent surgeries:(

Woos- Lightning, Misty, and Timber
