I take after my mother in that I celebrate all holidays via table clothes, dishtowels, soap dispensers, and random knickknacks.

I just love the feeling of fall because it means celebrating a new season, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and then eventually Christmas – all back to back!! I know I have a long way to go, but I love having a themed house!

Well, apparently I am not the only one who loves to decorate. My dear husband has been talking about having yard art since the day we signed the lease on this house. Luckily, I was able to negotiate with him and we agreed on only one piece of yard art per year. We went to Lowes and there was a plethora of deocrations to choose from. I, personally, wanted a big purple spider with a red belly that sat peacefully on the lawn. Scotty, on the other hand, couldn’t decide between the creep tree and the ominous horse and headless horseman. I decided to let Scotty chose which yard art he wanted because clearly he was more interested in the display than me! Well folks, this is what he chose!

Is there ANY wonder why Kayden cries when she looks out the window and says “that tree is scary!!”?? Good choice on our first yard art, dear!! There’s always next year!!
