Clowning Around at the Chainsaw House




Halloween is about family, fun, and enjoying sharing a little “Trick or Treat” with the community.  It started with the matriarch of the family years ago, until it was taken over by the younger generation and landed in Shawnee, Oklahoma.  It takes some long days and about 3-4 weeks to get it all setup for many to enjoy.  
























This year was a bit hard for us all, as we missed the beautiful matriarch clown handing out the candy to all the kids.  Even some of the regulars asked about her and/or took a moment to look at the “Loving Memories” memorial we had behind us.  Memommie you will always be with the crew, all the fond memories to enjoy for a lifetime!




If you happen to be in the Shawnee area on Halloween, it’s worth stopping by Osage Street to see what all the hoopla is all about at the “chainsaw house”.

Great job gang...hope I'm lucky enough to be around next year to enough in the fun once again.  Maybe I'll even have time to join in with the proper outfit.

Happy Halloween!

Hope you and yours had a very Happy and Safe Halloween!

Did you know; Halloween is the second most waited event and celebration after Christmas - at least in the United States?  

Halloween has been a hit or miss with me - love seeing all the creative decorations and costumes, however partaking in the celebration not so much.

This year was no different; we spend the morning in Oklahoma City at the VA clinic for Jerry's check-up.  Glad to report... he has received a good report

However, we did manage to go to a spectacular Halloween 'trick or treat' this year at Jerry's nephew's house.  The Stroud family go all out in a well known neighborhood in Shawnee, OK as the "chainsaw" house.
