Merry Holloween?




These were this years carvings. Aiden's is scary pumpkin. Izzy's is puppy pumpkin. Emma's is Disney Castle. Ben and I love to have a competition when it comes to carving but the past few years all we can manage is carving each of our children's pumpkins! We have some fake ones we need to carve but I'm not sure we're going to have time for that soon, so...

Now, for the Merry part...

Our neighbor's house!

What In the world? We pulled out our scarecrow and they pulled out big blow up Christmas-Go-Round! Then, in one day, they had lights, reindeer, trees, Santa... oh, and two jack o lanterns! You can't put up Christmas before Fall starts!
Do you like the emphasis in the picture here?

"One of the these things is not like the other. One of these things just doesn't belong. Can you guess which thing is not like the other? Now our song is done."

Well, like we say every day now, Merry Christmas!

(I am going to be extrememly busy these next few weeks. I'll update when I can!)

i don't like it one bit.... don't they understand that there are rules for these kinds of things?

halloween/fall stuff can come out after October 1
fall stuff stays up through thanksgiving with Halloween stuff being taken down around the 4th.
CHristmas stuff goes up THE DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING - no earlier than that and can stay up through 3 kings day (jan 6) at which time it must be taken down...

OH! wait ! I wonder if they are military? Maybe Daddy (or Mommy) is deploying and won't be around for the holiday so they are celebrating early - in that case none of the above rules apply!

My friend is putting up her tree this week!! What the?? There is no excuse for this craziness. I haven't even made the time to put up my fall decor yet. Crap.

My word verification is: decatel
I feel like that might mean "decor" in dutch.
