Now Graham is 16 and although having family come over to celebrate that may not be what a 16 year old thinks is very cool, we did it anyhow. Here's a brief look at that event.
But this year, we're back to business. It's that time of year again my friends.... be it a costume you wear this year or a pix from a past Halloween, send us your photos to be entered in our contest.
Here's Ken with his alter egos Kyde, Officer Leavoy and Mr Sock, as they tell us all about this year's contest.
It’s been just shy of two months since we last met
here, so you can bet there’s a lot to get caught up on in this edition. But first
I’d like to take moment to acknowledge a few things.
Let’s start with Scribbles itself. Labour Day was
officially our 42nd anniversary. It’s hard to believe those little
hand-drawn Sunny Digests would one day find us continuing to keep in touch on a
grander scale over the internet. That’s a whole lotta Scribblin’ my friends. I
appreciate that many of you have been along for the ride since our humble
beginnings and thrilled that we continue to meet new friends who are
discovering Scribbles for the very first time. That just never gets old and
keeps me extremely motivated.
In celebration of our anniversary, we’re bringing back
some popular features. This includes a revamped Scribbles Spotlight (replacing Scribbles SuperFan) which kicks off with our much deserving friend LeeAnne.
Also returning is Fortune Cookies. Much like horoscopes, Fortune Cookies were a staple of
Scribbles Magazines and although we’ve had to change it a bit in order to
include everyone, we hope you will find it very entertaining (as that’s what it’s
intended to be. Don’t go quitting your day job or betting all your money on a
long shot based upon what your Fortune Cookie tells you. LOL.)
Later this month, watch for photos and stories from
Scribbles archives. With over 4 decades of pix and info, we’ll all be taking
plenty of trips down memory lane.
Battle of the Best is also back and although it’s
featured through Facebook & email and not on our actual website, the
results of Series 2 will eventually make it to Scribbles in a future video.
Halloween is just around the corner and that means the
return of Scribbles Annual Costume Contest later this month. Scary good fun!
Enough gibber gabber. Welcome back friends, now let’s
get at it.
With Love,
Ken
We’re happy to bring Fortune Cookies back for a limited return engagement. Since there’s so many of you who enjoy Scribbles now, it is virtually impossible to feature a separate message to everyone the way we did before. Instead look for your fortune under the month you were born then find out how you can get your own personal Fortune Cookie.
