Boo!

This is for my girls! So the last few years I have not really decorated for Halloween. There are  several reasons for this: The first is, we get 'ZERO' Trick R' Treaters, our street is pitch dark and we live at the very bottom of a dark steep driveway, actually sounds perfectly creepy for Halloween, so there is no point in decorating just in case we might get some cute costumed kiddies knocking on our door. The next reason is that before the girls left home Halloween decorating was a really fun Family activity. The girls now have their own homes to have fun decorating and I usually go to Sage's cause her neighborhood is all Spooked out for Halloween and there are lots and lots of Trick R' Treaters. And the last reason is I guess I've gotten lazy and forgotten how much fun Halloween decorating is. Amber and the kiddies won't be down before Halloween so I know the pictures will bring back some fun memories, especially the silly guy on the porch. For many years Sage and Amber would use their Dad's old levi's, flannel shirt and cowboy boots to make this guy up!! I had the stuff packed away in the Halloween decoration box and couldn't resist making him up this year. He looks pretty good! So even though we will get 'ZERO' Trick R' Treaters I'm decorated and had lots of fun doing it!!
