We had a stay at home Saturday planned because we were going places on Sunday. We woke up to Fall's chill and I hunted up Eddy's tee shirts I had made her like 11 years ago!! It was at our old house so it is actually even longer than that. Her hair is still falling our and she has lost enough weight she can fit into them again. I think she remembers wearing them as she has not tried to take it off. Anything to keep my old baby warm.
Last year I decorated the play house and covered the windows with black paper. When Baylor went to check it out, he shut the door and it was dark. He panicked and ripped the paper off a window. This year he was excited to help me decorate it together. He is a less is more decorator but he was happy with his design.
Spooky pumpkin man in one window. I got a witch ball this year just for this room.
We have a swampy colored spider webbing on one side of the house.
A family friend to Spooky pumpkin man hangs in the opposite window. He hung a bat inside and a ghost outside and was done. Works for me.
I was cleaning off the patio and moved some crates from beside the basement doors. This lovely creature was apparently living in one of them. Quite a large one so I just left the area hoping it would find a new residence elsewhere in the yard and hopefully not in the stairwell!!
One thing about Spring and Fall, when the weather really changes, the skies can be pretty amazing. The colors, the clouds, the crisp feel in the air. Lovin' it.
It was a stay at home day until around 12:30 when I got a text from Landon's dad asking if Baylor wanted to come over. He was pretty much done helping me and said he would love to go over. We cleaned up and I dropped him off for a bit. I picked up some pumpkin colored paint, filled up the van and headed home for two hours of time to work. I found this pumpkin family in the attic, apparently a purchase from last year after Halloween. I set him up in the yard as a surprise. Since we do not get trick or treaters on Main St not many homes decorate out front. Baylor loves to decorate so I am happy to oblige.
I worked some on the garage, its yearly cleaning. You are welcome Gloria. More cleaning to come of course.
And I decorated the front door area of the patio. I put new branches in the flower pot and found some orange lights in the attic and some orange/purple color changing lights for the bird house. I bought the pumpkins, all three of them at my favorite store Aldis! It is beginning to look a lot like a party is coming.
