It's Almost Halloween!

Even though winter is my favorite season, I LOVE fall.

October has just begun and we have already put up all of our Halloween decorations.
Our trusty dry erase board is now decked out in Halloween decor.

This picture hangs above Juan's desk. The image changes from an old fashioned looking man to a skeleton.

Our witch Susanne. She is a nasty looking! She has a sensor that makes her speak and turn her head when someone gets near her. We all hate her! Yet we keep her up for Halloween. We are weird.

Cookies for the kids (note to self- NEVER buy cookies from the Dollar Tree again! They were gross!)

Our door knocker

Hanging on the inside of our house (he glows in the dark)
Pumpkins at the door

Our scarecrow hanging off the map

Wall behind the table (note the new dry erase board!)

Another scarecrow holding fall colored leaves, sitting between the childrens workboxes

Even Jayden's baseball trophy is ready for Halloween, sporting a skeleton bracelet around his neck


The kids LOVE Halloween. They love all holidays, actually. But Halloween is the start of the holiday season so we are all excited. Hell, we look for any "holiday" to celebrate, just to decorate and have goodies!

Goodies include (but are not limited to) turning these apples into apple pie and using my small crockpot to make homemade hot cocoa.
Well actually, I send the apples downstairs to a lovely neighbor who changes them into this:
Yummy, right?

Note my school books on the side being neglected for this hot cocoa!

We will be trying some new pancakes this month!
Celebrate!
