Spookapalooza!

The kids have been anxious to decorate or "spookify" our front yard. Jason has been out of town for the past 2 weeks and I didn't dare attempt it without him. He enjoys doing it, so I didn't want to take that away from him.

This year the boys really wanted something a bit "more." We normally do spiders, and webs and pumpkins and such. They had something different in mind this year. Something spookier. They came up with a skeleton grave yard, and I have to say, I LOVE it! It's a bit spookier for the boys, but it still has it's charm, for me. Ava just loved helping her daddy set it up, so it was a win-win for everyone!

hubby tore down one of the old dead tree's in our yard and laid it down behind the graveyard, he strung it up with purple eerie lights and laid pumpkins all around it.

So cute! I made a grave this year too! Mine has a light up skull and hands that look like they're trying to crawl out. So fun!

Way Cool! I love Halloween. My granddaughter wanted to know if I would be Tinkerbell with her this year! Could you just picture that...kinda like the hippos in fantasia! She told me that if I would be Tinkerbell with her we could both fly way up high! I hope she's not disappointed when she figures out she won't really be able to fly!

Very festive, I love it. How fun for the kids. Oh, and I could tell who old Morris was the moment I laid eyes on him. =)

Aunt Debbie you crack me up. I started laughing so hard at your "hippos in fantasia" comment. HAHA =)

I still think it's awesome how Jason yanked out a try when all he wanted was a branch lol.

It's a great skeleton graveyard though, wish I could have stayed last night to see it at night
