Halloween with children is a whole different ballgame! I am not very much into dressing up nor decorating and, prior to this year, the (total of) two decorations we would put up for Halloween included a stuffed cat in the window and a hanging stuffed owl (both of which, I think, were given to me by my Grandma, interestingly.) However, since Iver loves dressing up and decorating (and, well, candy too) so much (and in honor of Georgine), we decided to step it up this year in anticipation of the holiday.
We got these glow-in-the-dark "monster footprints," which Iver enjoyed placing on our front walkway (although they are already peeling off due to moisture).
Glowing spider web for the bushes!
Hanging skeleton from Gloria
Skeleton cat and ghost stakes (with witches' legs in the hedge in the background)
Scarecrows and pumpkins
Witch hat lanterns (with the stuffed owl I mentioned before)
These were a set of witches' legs à la Wizard of Oz, which are currently in our bedroom.
We didn't have an outlet to keep this second set of pumpkin lights outside, so they're in Iver's bedroom as nightlights
Here's a cute house on Spear in Arcata, which is fun to drive by.
We're ready for Halloween!
