Happy Hallow's Eve Sign

This is the fun sign I created a couple of Halloween's ago.
This week it took it's place back on the wall.

I LOVE that my kids love Halloween just like me.

They will grow up to anticipate fall...
The crisp smell in the air...
Crunching every leaf on the sidewalk as we scramble to church 
(We walk whether it's sunshine, rain, or snow)
Purple
Black
Lime Green
Orange
Homemade Rootbeer
Warm sweaters
Seeing your breath in the air
General Conference
Hay Rides
Pumpkin Mazes
A Harvest Moon
The Church Halloween Carnival
Trunk or Treats
Disneyland

I don't care that it was the beginning of September and the Halloween stuff is up...
I don't care that the entire 110 inch length of my picture window is covered in Halloween window clings...
My kids are happy every.single.time they walk into our house.
Big grins as they search for the bat silhouette hanging upside down from a picture, find the spider with the mad eyes, or eat a bag of "tandy torn" and "footsie rolls."
It isn't at the chic level I would like it to be, but it is at the kid friendly level it should be.

Mandy, this is the earliest that I've ever put my Halloween stuff up! Your children were so excited and asked if I would put my stuff out. Of course, I want to make them happy! Mom
