I love fall. I love the cooling temps and the beautiful foliage. Most of all, I love Halloween. It's my favorite holiday. And that's saying something since I like to go all out for all holidays.
I love trick-or-treaters. I love scary decorations. I love candy. I love parties. I love everything about it.
Saturday night, Philip and I had a Halloween party. Our house looked absolutely fantastic. I wish I would have taken pictures of everything. I'm still in awe of how awesome everything looked.

Then, tonight, Philip had to work. I was sick. I can't tell you the last time that I was sick. It's been forever ago. I can't believe that this cold chose to pop up on my favorite day of the year.
However, the neighbor kids gave up their night of trick-or-treating to help me set up the yard. Then they helped me pass out candy and scared the older kids (my yard is the "scary yard" in the neighborhood).

| The kids drew chalk outlines around themselves in the driveway and then smeared fake blood all over them. :) |

| Also an addition from the kiddos. |
 |
| Creepy girl hid underneath my car and crawled out at people while moaning. We had the fog machine set up so she wasn't very visible until people were right next to her. :) |

| Part of our cemetary. I had another fog machine set up here to make it creepier. :) |
So, despite being sick, I think I will still retain my title as "Halloween lady." Thanks to the kiddos (and their mom) for the help in actually making this Halloween another success. :)
I'm guessing that my house will be egged when I wake up tomorrow since I sent several kids away. Only kids in costumes get candy at my house! However, over $60 worth of candy went out to the kids who showed up at my door in costume. And we only believe in getting the good stuff! Happy Halloween, everybody. :)
