I've Been BOOED!

I opened my front door to turn off the Halloween lights and to my surprise....this beautiful basket was on our porch!!
We got BOOED! Have you ever been BOOED?
If you have never been BOOED, you can BOO first and see if it makes it way back to you. All you have to do is put together at basket/bag/gift and print off the BOO guidelines (found online). You leave the gift on a neighbor's porch and run!!! They find the nice surprise and then make another to pass to someone else. You include a picture of a ghost saying BOO and this gets taped to your front door...this way if someone wants to leave a BOO, they see you have already got one and leave the gift on someone else's porch so everyone gets in on the fun!!!
Here's what was left for us:
Beautiful wire basket filled with goodies, like this plant!
And candy, cupcakes, Halloween napkins and GLITTER PUMPKINS!!! I wanted glitter pumpkns, but had not gotten around to getting....now I don't have to go get them...I have them and they are beautiful!!!

So Cool!!

Look how pretty it is!! I have BOO Bags that I plan to fill and pass along!!

So have you been BOOED? If not, start your own BOOs!!!



Opening my front door and seeing someone was nice enough to think about us on Halloween = Pricele$$

Faux Jack


Since I don't have any little rug rats at home and my grandchild is still too young too carve a jack-o-lantern with me, I had to figure out a way to entertain myself. I really wanted to carve this guy out, but it's too early and I didn't want him to rot before Halloween...so I decided to paint him and enjoy him now.
I found this idea on Disney Family Fun and knew I wanted to make him.
He was very easy to make. I drew the outline of the eyes and the mouth with a regular pencil. I filled in with paint pens, yellow then black outline. I cut off all the rings off the spiders and glued them randomly in place.




Pumpkin - $1.99 Aldi
Paint Pens - already had
Spider rings - $1 Dollar Tree
Making a Memory for myself = Pricele$$
