Thank you to Menards for having a sale on all of the Halloween decor the day before Halloween so I could afford to buy enough stuff to finish off our yard!  It ended up being a smashing success!!

Our neighbors now know we are weirdos, but hey, at least they know what kind of weirdos we are! 

Two things I learned this year: 

• Dressing up is fun, but unless you're attending a Halloween party, don't worry about putting on makeup or doing anything fancy, because the children who come to your house only want candy and do not give a pile of leaves what you look like.  This took a LOT of pressure off of me!  Every year I dress up super fancy, but this year I decided to just throw on a witchy shirt and a witch hat and voila!  Instant costume!
• It's okay to wait until the last minute to get everything done.  We didn't have a choice this year, as it was windy AS FUCK all week, as well as raining and whatnot.  Then I went to Menards on Sunday and bam!  All the outside decorations I could have ever wanted!  On sale, for 40% off! Our trick or treating started at 5:30, and we were done at 5:15, and I still had to take a shower! hahaha!  And it all worked out as the best Halloween ever!
