Lyndon helped me add a few touches of Halloween to the house-I hope he never grows out of wanting to help decorate!
Since, our fireplace screen hadn't been made yet, the fireplace made a great graveyard scene.
Lyndon placed all of the birds...
& he created this master piece as well as cob webs around the TV.
He's a lot of fun and a great helper with creative skills!
We then headed out with friends to trick-or-treat in 'hay ride style'. We then headed out to the cemetery for a quick spook, before the majority decided to brave the local haunted house.
The next weekend Lyndon and Aubrey had a Halloween party at Memere & Pepere's.
They decorated brownies, bobbed for apples, and played several other fun games!
Lyndon painted a pumpkin at art. His creation even had a 3D wart!
Lyndon was an astronaut this year. His request were for something to disguise him and cover his head. He decided on the astronaut and had a lot of fun with his costume especially the backpack!
Lyndon's backpack tricked lots of people-we didn't even plan it. Inside the front cover there is a horizontal flap but it in only sewed to the bag on two opposite sides...we candy is placed inside the candy falls to the bottom and at first glance the backpack looks empty. As Lyndon went to homes he just turned around for them to place his treat inside. House after house we heard, "Well this poor little kid doesn't have any candy!" They always put in a little extra. Of course Lyndon LOVED that part!
Lyndon & I had fun decorating for Halloween this year. Of course we put things in different places each year which makes it fun!
This year we didn't buy any new decorations, but still had a lot of fun using what we had.
Lyndon is taking art classes after school one day a week and LOVES them!!!! He made this spooky skull &
this adorable scarecrow.
Momma and I brought home some of my late grandfather's milk crates this summer and we have had a lot of fun using them to decorate. My grandfather worked at several dairies during his lifetime and these crates are made only from metal and have the name of the dairy imprinted in them. I LOVE them!
The two wreaths on the backdoor were fun to put out....I bought them off of the clearance shelf last year after Halloween-it was fun to find them this year as we unpacked.
