Our Boo!Bash is ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!! AAAGGGGG!! I'm not ready, but I will be! Thankfully, I've been planning since June, so it's just a matter of pulling it together. Most everything has to be done last minute, because it's all outside and it's supposed to rain here Monday and Tuesday. BUT-and here's the sweet part-after the rain clears out, the temp is supposed to drop to low 60s during the day and 40s at night! Perfect outdoor party/firepit weather!! I'm so excited. On top of getting ready, we have something going on every night this week and Saturday morning. Never fails. I've decided to decorate sort of vintage style-I'm using orange crepe paper to make garlands, along with black nylon net, and balloons, and of course, mums, gourds, pumpkins and hay.
Sunday:
*church
*go to farm and scavenge for pumpkins and gourds-DH saw some that the deer didn't get!
