Getting Ready for Halloween

Everyone’s in various stages of colds here but on Sunday we managed to pull ourselves together enough to decorate the front porch for Halloween before we got ourselves kicked out of the neighborhood for lack of effort. It seems people take Halloween pretty seriously around here. But first, the boys needed to work on the landscaping plan. Ezra’s got it all figured out where the zip line will go.

Then, there was body art.

And finally we were ready for decorating. The plan was a big twine spider web, so Bruce started spinning.

Building the web

Ezra wanted to add the spider web stuff we bought at Target.

Finn wanted some shade.

And finally, voila!

Now we need to get ready for what we hear will be a deluge of trick-or-treaters. I guess I better buy some more candy!

    Trust me, there is plenty of time to buy it at half price on Monday before 3 PM. Buy it now and half will be gone by Friday. This is my favorite/worst holiday. I love junk candy. Jamma

    Remarkably we have not opened the package of candy yet. It’s sort of out of sight, out of mind at this point.
