Last year's Boo!Bash was such a success that we've decided to make it an annual affair. I'm calling it Boo!Bash2, so that I can keep up with the number of year's we do it. It seems simple enough now, but I know me...if I don't number each one, they all run together!!
Thanks for this cool idea of an on-line planner/journal, Ginger!! Great idea! By the way, Ginger was the one who originally came up with the name BooBash!! She's so smart!!
I don't do a whole lot of spooky, Halloweeny decorations..more vintagey fall stuff. This year, I'd like to add some spooky stuff, though.
Since we grow our own pumpkins and hay, we always have an abundance of them! They make such great fall/Halloween decorations and cheap, too!
I know that I'll be doing lots of hurricane globes with either votives or tealights...we bought 17 for the recent Magical Wedding, so we have plenty of those. I like floating candles in them, too, so that might be cute-I have some pumpkin shaped ones and leaf shaped ones...maybe some of each, with fall colored or clear glass marbles in the bottom...oohh...pretty!!
I want to decorate the front yard a little more than last year...maybe a ring of little ghosts circling a tree...something like that.
Our menu is going to be expanded from just desserts (lol, no pun intended) to nachos, hot dogs and chili, Frito chili pie, and of course, desserts! We'll have our hot chocolate/coffee bar again, along with Lemon Cider and warm spiced apple cider. Yum, sounds great already!
Another big hit from last year that will be returning is the "photo spot". I set up a few mums, pumpkins and a mini scarecrow and called it the photo spot. I tried to take everyone's pictures as they came in. I only missed a few late comers.
My plan is to have that darned porch screened in and new cushions for the lawn furniture out there by then...of course, I'd planned to have that done last year, too! Either way, it'll be fine.
We'll have a fire in the firepit, throws to wrap up in and a trailer piled with hay and pulled by a tractor for hayrides!
I am so excited!! Fun, fun, fun!! :jack:
