We LOVE Halloween!!

Yes 2 posts in a few days!  What can I say....we LOVE Halloween here.  It all started a few years ago when our neighbors went crazy with Christmas lights.  The neighbor even put in extra outlets to work with his *display*.  He had the entire house lit up with a blow up Santa and reindeer on the roof and xmas trees lining the driveway with light up presents under them.  It was like living next to the Griswalds!  Our one string of lights didn't even compare.  Now if you know my husband you know that he is competitive!  Of course we couldn't compete with Christmas, which started our Halloween decorating tradition :)  We add a little every year....after Halloween when it's 50% off.  Here is the inside of the house....we only do the front room since that's all the trick or treaters can see.  Mr. E thought I was demented hanging the bears, but hey it's supposed to be scary ;)

Here is the outside...the real head turner.  Whoooooooooo  SCARY!!!!!



As you can see we have pumpkin patch with bones and skulls scattered around.  Also we have blinking eyes looking at you in the bushes.  There is a huge spider in the window and skulls in the others staring at you.  And my favorite, Marcus the Carcass, buried in the stones trying to get out.  However, the scariest part is hovering above the garage....
Little Lion loves looking at him surprisingly and likes to give high fives to Marcus.  Halloween will sure be a favorite for the whole family...now if only LL would wear his costume ;)
