I have decorated a bit out on our front porch but unfortunately it seems we are in the path of a hurricane and now everyone is taking in objects that can be blown around and do damage. Even the flower pots fall over in high wind. Glad I didn't overdo the decorating!

But this week, I was in our quaint downtown and noticed a storefront that had a wheelbarrow filled with leaves and a skeleton sticking out. I thought simple enough I have 2 out of 3 of these things. I am going to surprise the kids with it on our porch Halloween Eve when we make our jack o'laterns.CRICKEThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768871508564894127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-23740359590373670532012-10-26T13:45:11.201-07:002012-10-26T13:45:11.201-07:00What a great idea - although we don't in UK &#...What a great idea - although we don't in UK 'do' Halloween as much as in USA I have still joined in and done a very quick display of 3 little pumpkins in my white French china - maybe I will post a pic next week on the blog...
