Spooky, spooky, spooky!

Well, Halloween is just around the corner and we've got a lot of decorating to do! I actually don't really like Halloween, but Bailey LOVES Halloween! She can't wait for Halloween. She chats about Halloween for months after it's over and then she starts talking about next year's Halloween soon after that. Last year she was dead set on being a spider. This year she started out wanting to be a zebra, but it has recently changed to a ladybug, butterfly and bee (she can't seem to decide). She wants Gregory to dress as a flower - Daddy doesn't like that idea. We'll start shopping around soon.

Anyways, back to decorating. Yesterday we decorated our windows with Halloween window clings and today we painted wooden pumpkins and decorated them after they dried. Bailey wanted to make hers into a jack-o-lantern and Gregory decorated his with pom poms. I think they turned out quite cute! Next we'll have to pull our our Halloween boxes from the garage and decorate even more.

After we finished our pumpkins, Bailey wanted to make ghost puppets and have a puppet show. I only had green tissue paper so we made green ghosts and sang ghost songs and danced around.



Grandma helped Bailey make this picture the other day. Bailey cut all the shapes all by herself and pasted them on the black paper with pom poms.
