Spooky

My husband and I were Gomez and Morticia Addams for Halloween. The girls were curious who we were, so we showed them a clip of the intro song. They both have become obsessed with the song, and with Morticia in particular. We have listened to, and have sung, the theme song more times than I can count. "They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky, they're all together ooky, the Addams family." When I said that my theme for the day was spooky, my 2 year old started singing this theme song. Funny thing is, I wish I could use a picture of my husband's "crazy eyes" for this post. But, that wouldn't count for the challenge (though I think I will post at least one as a bonus).

For today's challenge, I am going to confess. I cheated. I used an actual camera; not my phone. I could not for the life of me get my phone to focus where I wanted it to! And, while the subject matter is more creepy, it is pretty spooky to me.

I don't like spiders. I get the creepy-crawlies and do an involuntary twitch when I see them (I am shuddering as I type this whenever I glance at the pictures), especially ones this size. This guy (girl?) has it lucky. It is outside. I made a deal that I would not kill them if they are outside, so long that they don't block major entrances, etc. It seems that they are taunting me though. There is a spider like this in a window on every side of the house - they have me surrounded. I guess it is a drawback of living in a house surrounded by woods. To make this even spookier, S looks out the window and says "Awww" (in a sweet, endearing voice). She then proceeds to kiss the window where the spider is/would be if it were on the inside. This girls is going to test me for sure! 

And here is your bonus spooky:
