(At a friend’s dress-up / fancy dress birthday party — we had no idea costumes were an option, let alone expected.)
Friend’s Mother: Hi RJ! What are you dressed up as?
RJ: I’m not dressed as anything because I don’t need to be dressed as anything.
(runs off with group of other kids following him)
(during breakfast)
RJ: Braaaaains…. Braaaains… I … need … brains…
Dad: Have you checked your sister? She might have some to spare.
RJ: (turning to LR) Braaaains?
LR: Sorry RJ. I need all my brains.
RJ: Braaaains…
Dad: How about the dog? Actually, forget that. She doesn’t have any brains.
LR: (protesting) Yes she does!!!
RJ: Braaaains…
Mum: Here you go RJ. Porridge for us, and a big fresh bowl of brains for you.
RJ: Thank you mummie zombie.
Mum: You’re welcome little zombie.
This year, our Halloween party was the biggest ever. Every kid from both of the Year 1 classes at LR’s school was invited, as well as all the children on our street and a bunch of RJ’s friends. It was absolutely crazy, but we did our best to keep them busy. Activities included the Haunted Garage, a “Yucky” dip, a piñata, a broom race, a treasure hunt, making disembodied hands and the grand finale, a total, all-out assault on Dad with water balloons.
LR, as Supergirl, decided the world needed rescuing.
RJ and Mum put together a great snapping turtle costume.

For most of us, a Halloween party means costumes, candy and a good time, but those attending the annual Halloween party left with only tears and potential sleepless nights.
Promoted as a kid-friendly take on the classic Haunted House, visitors were alarmed by the terrifying sounds and sights within. Groups of children, faces streaked with tears, were seen being led away to the protective arms of their parents.
Visitors to the Haunted Garage encountered a dark, fog-filled cavern and guided through a dark, webbed tunnel swarming with tarantulas, before being attacked by vampire bats.
A statement from Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) officials states that the garage will be quarantined for the next 24 hours while they assess the scope of the infestation and determine the source of the non-native species. Sources indicate that the attached residence may require demolition to eliminate the outbreak.
Several disturbed guests reported encountering a strange seated figure with glowing eyes, a horrific crime scene involving dismembered teddy bears, and being attacked by an eerie floating apparation.
Some of the more confused reports include glimpses of a freakish ape man, or perhaps a gorilla, living within the depths of the garage, but these have not been corroborated. Perth Zoo officials have been contacted and an investigation is pending.
Police are requesting that anyone with any information regarding these events contact the Crime Stoppers Hotline at…
We’re still recovering and attemping to clean up after our massive Halloween party. The kids at school are still buzzing about the events of the day. Pictures coming soon!
"Real" pumpkins aren't cheap here, but melons certainly are.
