Halloween Photo Parade, 2009

Halloween is always a lot of fun on Smith Street, and this year, as always, there were some great costumes, despite the on-again/off-again drizzling rain. We had mobs of kids all day long, but when I remembered, and could gather my wits, I snapped a few pictures...


Ninjas!


All I can say is "AWESOME".


When Captain America throws his mighty shield...


The Frog King!


The bulls and the bees?


Johnny Boo!


Our next door neighbors, the ladies of Salon de Quartier


Scout!

And finally...

Wonder Tot!

Happy Halloween!
