This is Halloween

"In this land we call home, everyone hail to the pumpkin song."

As many people can tell you, I get very excited for holidays. I love to decorate and, um, decorate. This year I decided to go the cheap way and created Halloween decorations aout of things that I have been holding on to for a while.

First I made a hay ride wagon out of Popsicle sticks, toothpicks, tin foil, and hot glue.


Second, I decided I wanted something a little bigger and pulled out my really old ballet skirt ( I think it was Heather's once). I used Popsicle sticks, a paper plate, and my hot glue gun to crate this!


Third, I created a ghost out of a white pillowcase stuffed with missmatched socks, and an old black handkerchierf, and some twine.


I also carved a pumpkin, but it was too early and he is already leaking smelly juices. I'm sure you wanted to know that. But I don't have the heart to toss him until after the holiday.


I also bought some sugar pumpkins that I just set out as decorations and after Halloween is over I am going to turn them into pie. Mmm...
I'll post pictures of our costumes after we have them.
