A Vintage Halloween

I was talking to my husband about days of old, when we were kids and what Halloween use be something fun.  Today, we participate with our kids, letting them go door to do, but to be honest it is not the same, nothing like it use to be.

I won't bore you with the differences of then and now. I just want to share a few things that remind of the good ole days when I was young.

Okay wait before you go trying to guess my age, I am not that old...Some of these images are

Initially released in 1966. Growing up this one was my favorite.  

Okay this one may just give away my age....can you guess?  

Star War's Costumes 

 Let's just say, I was young enough to remember the first Star War's movie, but not near old enough that I could not go see it by myself or just with a friend.  

I guess you say this is one is someone of my era...at least I claim I am a child of it.

The next few are simply images  (I tried to just narrow down to a few because as you know I love just about everything vintage), I found simply found to be cute or funny.  Some actually reminded me of specific feelings and moments of my past.  For instance can you imagine any picture of a witch scaring the mess out of me?  Well, it's true, any image of a witch, would scare me onto the straight and narrow.  Today, though, I am an adult...all grown up, witches still creep me out.  

Well, here they are, my favorite few images of Halloween past...I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. 

Last but not least, this is my favorite.  

I can't help but giggle a bit when I see it. Especially on Halloween night.  We all know or have come to accept that each child always sneaks handfuls of candy before their parents can check the bag for safety.  We all now know the reason as to why most kids will not  be able to go straight to sleep at bed time.  No matter how much we say, "Hush and settle down!" "Go to sleep!" Or, we warn them to stop it. they can't.  Well this says it all..."Quick Energy for Active Bodies".  

Well, no matter how you celebrate I hope you have grand Halloween!

Until next time, be well and at peace ~ Michaelyn
