I love October because it holds not only my birthday (only five more shopping days!) but also Halloween. Halloween has always been my favorite holiday and I love decorating inside and out to celebrate. I typically wait until the weekend before Halloween to deploy the cemetery, but this year I threw caution to the wind -- literally: today was GUSTY -- and built my little yard of horror.
Welcome to the cemetery.
The neighbors are quiet...
...but we have a bit of a giant spider problem.
Plus, there's the infestation of haints in the tree.
Setting up the yard to delight and terrify the neighborhood children is definitely one of the cooler parts about being a grown-up.
