Happy Halloween 2011

This is my Kitchcen Nook...



Mr. Spooky...He scares the heck out of Jax's...



Family Room...This is the room we use most...

Friday I spent the day decorating the inside of my house.  I have a few more ideas that I didn't have time to get to just yet.  Most of the decorations are left over from last year.  I did add to the look with the black spider web pannels that I changed into curtains.  I started the day out with my coffee and a thought that I need to see just what I have in the basement.  I need to see what I had and what I might need for this Haunting Halloween, when I decided to put a few things out and that started the monster in me, I couldn't stop decorating.  The black panels you see in the photo's was new...but I had only purchased 1 so now I'm running out the door to buy 10 more.....lucky for me they had 12....  I also added the orange candles that you see beside the TV.

When Shelby came home she was in awwww.  She said WOW...I Love it...better then anything.  My favorite this year is the bat's....I just hope they come off the wall as easy as they went on....or I will be painting before Thanksgiving.....lol

After a full day of decorating, then cleaning up my mess, we went to Applebee's for a nice relaxing dinner.
(that was my selling point)  I was so tired from going up and down the steps I just needed to sit and have a good Mudslide...

Saturday Mike went outside to decorate...I haven't got to take any photo's yet, but hope to get home from work before the sun goes down so that I can get some good photo's...

The yard looks great...We have the blow up Headless Horseman, a huge Spider, Ghost, Pumpkins, and a great new Arch to walk under....I have large spiders that moves down the windows when you pass, and we have fog michines and lazer lights....This is the second year that we have created floating ghost that start at the top of my second story and float down to the ground...AWESOME.....Good strong fishing string makes the difference....just don't get tangled up...lol 

As I came home from work last night, their was kids everywhere...a mom with her son year old checking out our large spider, a dad and his son walking under the spooky arch way, and a mom with her daughter standing at my porch looking at all the decorations....then in my garage I found 5 pre teens...lol  My daughters friends....it was a fun feeling that my decorations was bringing out the neighbors for a good look. 

One of the things we keep in mind is NOT to scare the little one's but to put a little spook into it for the older ones....and I think we have done that...:)
