Well, everyone, what do you think?" asked Carissa as she turned on the halloween lights. With a flick of the switch, the old Victorian house lit up with dark light all around it.



"It's wonderful!" commented Mary Beth, Carissa's best friend. "All that work we put in really paid off."



It was late october as the three friends Carissa, Mary Beth, and Kathleen, enjoyed the mild climate of living in the western United States. As the sun set in the horizon.


"Thanks again for inviting us over here for the weekend, Carissa." thanked Kathleen as she walked back into the house with Mary Beth and Carissa. "Your parents' place is amazing."


"No problem." responded Carissa. "Besides, I couldn't have done this unless you two were here to help. And don't forget, we still have that party here tomorrow night."
