Happy Halloween!

I'm ready for my little trick or treaters... are you? I've hung my "I've got flying monkeys, don't make me use them" sign.
Since the removal of the tree in the front yard there's been no landscaping... so I decided to work with what I have and dig a graveyard! I'm not really a morbid person, but my humor can be a little twisted at times.
Apparently, my neighbor's humor can be twisted too! His graveyard puts mine to shame. He's got a body bag, tombstones, "fire" that lights up, and even music with sound effects!
Here's a close-up of what he has going on above his garage. He built it himself-- it has a windshield wiper motor in it to make it move! Brilliant!
Well, I've got some last minute things to do before the little goblins start coming by-- have a safe and fun Halloween!

That's a cool pirate! We have spooky music too. One year it scared a little guy and I had to turn if off otherwise he wouldn't come up to the door.

Happy Halloween!

You did a great job decorating the house for Halloween!

We live on a country road and don't get trick-or-treaters! We really miss seeing them!
