Jack’s Big Party…

Saturday was my good friend Tammy's annual Halloween party.. This is the second year for Jack. If you don't know who Jack is, he is a 20+ foot tall Jack-o-lantern that was handmade by Tammy and her family. As you can see Jack was back in full force this year.

I plan on blogging about Tammy's house this week.. but I couldn't help throw this photo in of the top of her silo. Pretty cute huh?

Gourds and pumpkins in a horse trough.

Here's Jack in the daylight..

Here are some photos from inside of her barn…

This is the table where kids paint pumpkins…

The Laboratory…

Indoor grave yard… (because there is an OUTDOOR one..:) )

More of the grave yard..

Along came a HUGE Spider…

#5 and the kid from Trick-r-Treat.

Outdoor grave yard….

I couldn't get a good picture of this.. but this is a door with a window that really is a TV screen… This crazy girl sees you looking in the window.. and she comes after you with an axe. If you can see where the arrows are.. that's the axe marks appearing to come through the door..

Here's #4 standing in front of the Zombie cabin.. I don't

think he's looked above his head yet..

I think he has found the zombie OUTSIDE of the cabin….

I really should have taken more photos inside the zombie cabin… this is only a small glimpse. You ca see the "window" that the people are looking out at.. that's a dude on the ground with a zombie bent over him… eating away (you know like zombies do). When the zombie looks up and see you in the cabin (through the window) he comes running at you… I won't ruin it for you.. but it's pretty cool. #4 even thought so..

#3 painting her pumpkin..

Here's #5 (his dumb mother put #2 above his head) and #4

getting ready to pain their pumpkins.

Here's an overview of the party…

She even has a little "screening room" set up where kids can watch Halloween cartoons. We had a great time this year! (as we do every year).. I forgot to take photos of the haunted hay ride…

Bye Jack! See you next year…
