However, I finally put up one Halloween decoration for the benefit of our mailman and the 4 other people that might come to my front door between now and the 31st. (I didn't even design it myself. The Doodlebat can be found here.) Voila.

My Attempt at Halloween Decor
I admit it, Halloween is not my favorite holiday. I don't hate it, I just don't see the point in spending a lot of money or time on it. We manage to throw costumes together every year mostly with stuff we have around the house (see a few of last year's costumes here, here and here), and we have had a total of approximately 7 trick-or-treaters come to our house in the past 13 years. It's kind of hard to get excited about that.

I feel much better now. :)

you are too funny! It is cute. and all i did was put up a table runner of three pumpkins in my window. and then put three pumpkins on my front porch. ta da.
I like decorating for fall--pumpkins, an autumn wreath, some cute autumn-colored chicken things on the table. But I DO NOT like Halloween. At all. We offer our kids $10 each to forgo the "celebration." They sometimes take us up on the offer but sometimes they want to do something with their friends.
I've gone the gamut on costumes--from making them, buying them (on sale) to scrounging something up. Now that my kids are older, they're on their own.
In spite of all I've said, I do think your "boo" is really cute.
Have fun at Les Mis! I am taking my daughter and seeing it Friday night. I can't wait. It's my favorite!!
I totally get you, Missy! This is how I feel. I love fall, but Halloween is not my favorite and I dread having to come up with costumes for my kids!
AH...7 trick or treaters....I think we get 107 here....maybe we should move to that house over by you!
I share your feelings....just ask your husband. There were 5 deprived halloweeners at our house....but we beat your record...only 1 family ever visited us out on the farm!!
