Excited!

This is my second time writing this. Blogger decided to crap out on me right as I hit publish. So....

I am excited for Halloween! We had to pull down all of our Halloween decorations last week out of the attic and I found myself so excited for this holiday! My mom always made a big deal out of Halloween. She used her creative genius to create costumes, contraptions and decorations. My favorite was this thing she created for the front door so that whenever it was opened a witch or spider would come rushing at you. I spent a lot of time opening and closing the door and watching in delight. Since then, I found Matt, who like me, loves Halloween. Every year we wait for all the store's Halloween aisles to go up and then we search for bigger and better things for our decor.

Right now, our decorations include: several carved, uncarved and porcelain pumpkins, countless headstones, a door mat, a fog machine, "Vinnie the Vampire", a set of "haunted" books, a haunted village, and many more things. Not too gory, but a lot of fun!

I did recently make my first Halloween purchase. I bought some candles that appear to be white on the outside, but drip red when lit. I am very excited to use them!

I have no idea what my obsession with Halloween decorating is, but I love it. Luckily, I found a man who loves it with me.

The one thing I will miss this year is the crisp air that comes with Fall in Utah. But..I have something they don't...MICKEY'S NOT SO SCARY HALLOWEEN PARTY! I am so excited!
