Halloween

So as some of you know, we love this holiday and try to go all out. The three years we lived at our house we did a "haunted house" in our garage, the first year was fun, second was better and last year was the best. All the kids in the neighborhood kept coming back just to check everything out, they would come up to shawn and try to get his attention. Shawn would dress up as Michael Meyers from the movie halloween and carry a chainsaw (without the chain) and he would chase the kids up and down the street. It was such a fun time, and we loved watching all the kids, they didn't do trunk or treating in our neighborhood they actually did what we did as kids...walk from house to house. Anyway, it was just announced last week that they won't be doing trunk or treating this year in our area.. YAY!!! I love when the kids come up to the door and they are just so happy to show off their costumes.
So we decided to decorate what we could here at the house, and we see lots of people driving slow just checking things out. Here are some pictures of what we have done, it all looks ok during the day, but it's best at night, we have strobe lights, black lights, and lots of colorful lights all over. Spooky ooky.....

My kids still don't like walking up the front steps at night.... I have to say that I am a big fan of the trunk-or-treats. They are a lot more safe and my kids don't get super cold. I never really did get into the halloween thing; even as a kid.
The house looks great!
