Halloween is just one week away

October 25, 2008

I am getting ready for Halloween!  So much work to do, so little time.  I even tried to start early this year (before October).  Have to put on a good show for the kids.  Darin and I loved Halloween night when we were kids, because it was a treat just to go into town (we lived 7 miles outside of town), dress up, get candy, and run wild during the night while our parents played poker.  Good times!  Fond memories.

 So I am driven/compelled to put on a good, scary show every year for the kids (little and big).  Heck, one year I had more fun scaring the parents waiting in the driveway, unawares, while their children visited our door.  Total blind-side scare!  I would jump out and give the parents a lil heart jump-start, while they were looking at our front door.

 So if you are interested in what I do for Halloween... I turn our front yard into what I like to call a "graveyard gauntlet"... the kids have to EARN those treats, right? 

 

So I decided to start a seperate blog on my Halloween projects, with photos:http://madtinkererhaunt.blogspot.com/

Hope you have a Happy/Scary Halloween!
