We had a great Halloween camping trip! We had kind of cold weather, but during trick or treat hours the sun came out and it was beautiful outside!
I was afraid I bought too much candy, but we had enough with only a little extra! There were TONS of kids at the campground - so cute!
And so many campsites were decorated - the one right across from us looked so great - they used I don't know how many orange juice jugs (sans label) and somehow painted on or stuck on jack o lantern type faces - after dark they turned into luminaries and they glowed so pretty! Great recycling idea!
As fun as it was - I am glad Halloween is over! I have one more week to dedicate to prepping the house for the baby shower - after that...Christmas prep will be my main focus.
Tonight I am going to take down the Halloween decorations and put up my Thanksgiving ones - shouldn't take long as I only have a few pieces - the Fall themed items stay up of course.
Can you believe that with all the craziness (skunk, construction projects, camping prep, etc.) that DH and I never got around to getting the large pumpkins out of the pumpkin patch?!?
We have 4 big ones out there still! I'm going to see if he has time to help roll them around to the front of the house this week. I think they will make a great display from now through Thanksgiving!
I'm rambling all over the place here - but to sum it up - YES! Glad Halloween is over and I am totally looking forward to Christmas!
I'm heading to Meijer after work tonight for some milk and while there I plan to pick up a couple of sales items for folks on my gift list - a little here, a little there! It all adds up!!!
