Getting Ready for Halloween!



We are starting to get in the spirit of Halloween, starting with decorating our house. A few weekends back we made some homemade decorations (pumpkins, ghosts and bats). Then earlier this week I hit up the $ Tree for other miscellaneous decorations. Our kitchen table has a 'bloody handprint' runner with a spider web placemat in the middle and a big Halloween decorative bowl to use as our 'sacrifice' to the Pumpkin King on Halloween Night (it's where the boys will put all the candy they collect to give to the "Pumpkin King" who will then in turn leave them a surprise gift). We also put up decorations on the fireplace and backdoor. This weekend we will continue getting ready for Halloween by baking and decorating Halloween cookies, making more Halloween-themed crafts, carving pumpkins AND attending Zoo Boo. Phew!...busy weekend ahead...keep a look out for more postings of these fun events on our blog.
