I know, it's already waaaay past Halloween, but like I said, I'm trying to catch up. We actually had a lot of fun with Halloween this year. We did some really fun decorating and had a small get together. Good times! Here are the decorations....I'm pretty pleased with myself, so I feel obligated to share. ha ha This is our VAAARY SCAAARY front door. I had a great pattern for a spooky wreath, but we had limited funds. Maybe I'll make it next year....I made the spider!
Here's a close up of Mr. Spider
I made this huge spider web that draped across the entire living room out of yarn. It took like 5 hours! It looked a lot cooler in person. Everyone was trying to convince me that it would make a great permanent addition to our home decor. ha ha
This is Steven and my first Halloween decoration! I made it the Halloween before last. Like how I captured part of Casper the movie in the background to add to the creepiness? That wasn't on purpose! ha ha
$4 sheets from Walmart made for some cool looking window dressings.
Here's a close up of our pumpkins. Steven's is the scarecrow...he basically did all the work on mine too. I cut out one of the eyes and was done. ha ha Such a sweet, talented guy!
Can't leave out the kitchen table!
Tiger was really enjoying the decorations too...until he got stuck in them. Poor thing got all tangled up. I was to was to busy trying to get him out to realize what a great photo opportunity I was missing until after it was over. Lucky for me the nerd didn't learn his lesson and got back up there, so we got to recreate the moment.
These are a couple of our friends, Jeff and Lisa. He was the cookie monster and she was a cookie. I thought it was so cute. We had another friend, Lia over who was pregnant at the time. She was wearing an orange shirt with a Jack-O-Lantern face on her baby bump. They had to leave before I thought to whip out the camera tho.
This is our count down calendar. I saw it in a Crate and Barrel catalog for way more than I was going to pay for it, but I really liked it, so I recreated it. Steven helped. It was a lot of fun! I think it turned out pretty good.
There was some cool stuff going on in the bathroom and kitchen, but I didn't get pictures of it for some reason. Maybe next year....
