Yes I am looking forward to them this year. After living in an apartment for over 10 years, and now living in a house - Let the decorating start! There is nothing better then seeing the different decorations and lights when your out for a walk or just driving around town. It is also nice to see the smiles on peoples faces as they go past your house as they look at your decorations. So get into the holiday spirit with me.
So now that I have this big porch and front yard and trees, it gives me lots of room to be creative with my decorations outside. But first I will need a picture of the house before I start.

I have also decided that the grass would not be cut at all during the month of October, to just let it over grow and the leaves to pile up and give it a really good fall look.
Now for my stuffed creatures. The first is Cousin It, I always liked him on the TV show "The Adams Family". In years past I have even warn the costume while passing out the Trick or Treat candy to shock the kids. Keep in mind that everything looks better at night with only the candles glowing.

Next was the Devil, this costume was made for my daughter when she was little - and she could be such a little devil too. The only thing missing was a face and we found a great mask for it.

George is our family hangman and we have the perfect tree for him to finally hang from.

In the meantime, lets see what your doing to decorate your place
