Friday OT #1 - Creepy and Kooky

[Angie]

So, I love Halloween and go a bit "extra" at it. I make a lot of our own decorations (see below).

For what holidays are you "extra"? Do you have photos you can share of some of your decorations or costumes or food from those events? Or good stories to share?

I don't generally go overboard but my daughter did request these this year. They turned out pretty good.

She did the carving. I did the filling.

Angie you and the vixen would be soul sisters. She loves Halloween and I know the two of you could create some pretty epic vistas.

I figure that, if you're going to lean into any holiday, it should be one where you can put fake spiders everywhere and not clean and have it be a GOOD thing! I love that she's also into it.

For us it's Christmas. We set aside some money each year to add to the decoration budget, and so each year we add more and more. As of last year we are up to 4 trees (a main tree, one we give the kids free reign to decorate, an Iowa State tree and a white tree).

For Christmas, my Grandma would 2 Christmas bears from the year I was born (1993), up to the last 5 years or so. She would get them all out for Christmas, then, when we had our get together, we would put them all together and have all us grandkids have a picture with them.

Okay, now I'm a little concerned about food poisoning.

Cool look though.
