Gromit, Bat Dog!!! Love his costume!

He's our friend's Chorkie ❤️
 
Xmas365, the first Hallnark Christmas movie is tonight at 8:00 CST, and it's The Christmas Secret on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries... Love that one!

The next one is 9:00 CST, tonight, A Boyfriend For Christmas, on Hallmark.

:blinky:
I didn't watch them, I got brave and was watching Poltergeist on ABCFamily (such a great family movie) then I remembered that my Bruins were on tonight. They are leading 3-1 with less than 5 minutes to go.
 
Not so foolish! There is such an instrument as a "banjolele"---it's fingered and played like a ukulele, but looks and sounds like a small banjo. Is that what George played? If so, you were honestly confused!

Trivia: Another British George was famous for playing the uke and the banjolele---George Formby, in the 1930s and 1940s. Check him out on YouTube! His forte was singing very cheerful, rather naughty songs!

It was actually the ukulele George loved to play. He did not play it while recording Beatles songs, he just loved to play it on his off time and even gave some to friends to learn to play, gave one to Paul too! Paul plays it at every concert I have been to during the opening of the song, Something. George might have recorded solo with it, not sure on that. He played the sitar too and did record some Beatles songs with that. It is possible he could have played the instrument you mentioned and who knows, maybe the banjo! :)

You had sent me George Formby videos, he is entertaining!

Hey there! We seem to miss each other on here! Hope all is well! Speaking of Poltergeist, I just happened to watch that recently. I think it's been 10 years or more since I have seen it. Enjoy your game!
 
Boo!!! Did I scare ya?! ;) Happy Halloween Weekend my Christmas friends!

Looking forward to the Today Show Halloween Costume reveal! I try to watch it every year. For those who don't watch it they surprise the audience with a Halloween costume theme that the whole cast dress up in. One year it was a Star Wars theme, last year Saturday Night Live theme and so on. Hubby was guessing maybe they will do the Peanuts theme this year and I sure hope so!!! I guess we will find out soon! They will reveal it in less than an hour. I believe Good Morning America does the same thing but I watch the Today Show every year. Either way, both do a good job! =)

I hope you all have a fabulous Halloween weekend!
You weren't disappointed, loved seeing Al Roker as Charlie Brown.
 
TGIF, my Christmas friends!

The kids won the region with their One-Act Play! They were so excited! And Elizabeth won Most Outstanding Actor! And Jacob was complimented profusely for his banjo playing. My goodness, these kids and their extracurriculars LOL. It was interesting to see the plays acted out by the other schools, too, but ours was the obvious choice, if I do say so myself.

Now we go on to state on November 18...two days before Nutcracker starts. It'll be held far enough away that we'll have to stay overnight, so Elizabeth will probably miss a dress rehearsal for the ballet. I hope they don't mind too much!

I'm doing it again, but...I'M PROUD OF MY KIDS! ;)

I hope y'all have a great day! :D
Congrats to both of them!!!!
 
Why isn't It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown on TV tonight? Am I missing something? It is not on my listings and I am disappointed.
Yeah it was on last night as you said in a future post...do you have it on dvd? I am glad they put it on twice this October. But I am not gonna give up on watching Halloween shows November 1. I watch them up till basically Thanksgiving (while at the same time I'm starting my Christmas shows November 1 also).
 
Good afternoon friends!! Well, my plans have changed for today. We got really good news on my SIL - there are no malignant cells in her heart fluid....BUT she doesn't want visitors today. (She's REALLY funny about that, but that's a whole nother store for another day....) Anyway, my day freed up, so I'm getting ready to head towards the lake soon. Bring all our stuff out there. Drop Gracie off. Head to the grocery & then help with the move!

I wanted to post the pic below tomorrow but since we don't have internet at the lake, I will send our Halloween wishes now!

Have a Happy, Safe, Wonderful Halloween weekend! (I'll be enjoying CHRISTMAS on Hallmark! :D)

Happy Halloween from Miss Gracie too!!!



(she is NOT thrilled about this "get-up") :p

Great news about your SIL!!!!

Gracie looks great! Happy Halloween!
 
Congratulations to all!!! I know you must be so proud!!!

Jacob is cool for playing the banjo, George Harrison was known for playing it too! :D
This is my favorite banjo based song, if you listen carefully you can here "Cousin Luke" play an off key version of Good King Wenceslas.
