Plan for Halloween/ Halloween Decor

               Hope your Thanksgiving was fantastic, I know we had a wonderful time with family. This was the first event we were getting ready for, and now, it’s come and gone, so what’s next? Halloween!

                Last year was our first year in our house, but both of us worked. Odds are we’re both off this year, because it falls on our days off, and Cale is off in the evenings anyway, so we’re going to put a little more into it this year.

                Now is the time (assuming you can restrain yourself) to get those treats for the trick-or-treaters. Also, we have a couple special ones who will likely be coming to our door, so we’re likely going to have something special for them.

                Are you going to need to get any costumes together for yourself or for the little ones? Do it early, you’re going to be glad you did, when they’re not well picked over and you get the costume they actually want. I know some of you might have ones who change their minds on this. If you want to have a backup plan that’s fine, but try really amping up that costume so they’re super excited for it.

               

As far as décor goes, we used to have all these things we put in the windows when we were kids. I don’t have a lot of this going yet. We’re looking at some pumpkins, and some easy DIY or dollar store stuff. Just a little something, because the kids only see it for a second anyway. I don’t like the super scary stuff either, I realize Halloween has always had the scary aspect to it, and maybe it’s because I have my own little monster on the way, or that most of the kids I know are five or under, but I don’t like scaring the little ones. That’s not fun, it’s cruel.

K, Luv Ya, Bye!
