However, a trip to the doctor projects they will live another 68 years together and panic sets in. They never expected 'until death do us part' to mean seven decades. In the name of marriage survival, they quickly concoct a plan to keep their relationship fresh and exciting: they will create little surprises for each other so that their (extended) years together will never become boring. But in their pursuit to execute Project Surprise Me, mishaps arise and secrets are uncovered that start to threaten the very foundation of their unshakable bond"--

His mummy is very sad but she has Evo to help her.

Samhain StoryIntroductionIt’s Samhain, (pronounced Sow–wen), in Trollville – that’s Halloween for those who don’t know about the old Celtic traditions. Samhain is the time of the last harvest of the year before Winter and a celebration on The Wheel of the Year. During this time the veil between our known physical world and the Otherworld is very thin. The spirits are able to cross over more easily and sometimes apparitions are called or accidently seen wondering around. In the past, this made some people afraid, (you’re not afraid of ghosts, are you?), so they dressed up in scary costumes with the hope that if a ghost came along it would be scared away! That is how our modern Halloween celebration and costume parties came to be.Come and join Billy and his friends for the great festival of Samhain and a big surprise!
