Day 305 is a pumpkin artist

Look at this artistry. I know what you're thinking, "this is pure brilliance!". I'm a regular freaking Michelangelo you guys. Mine is on the far right. It's angry, cause I gutted it. Makes total sense. And (and!) this is the first time I've ever carved a pumpkin. Thinking about changing careers and becoming a professional pumpkin carver!

Day 304 enjoyed too many treats

Mooooore Halloween! Because the actual holiday was on a Monday and the celebrating started on Thursday, it really feels like the halloween that never ended. Best part: Hocus Pocus on TV all the time and candy. Freaking candy. Did you guys even know they made Halloween peeps? What kind of sorcery is this?? How am I supposed to be expected to not eat this?? Also yes, my jeans are feeling a little tight this week. Too much halloweening.

Day 303 goes on a bike ride

This is a poor iphone picture of a Halloween bike ride that went down Southport. Costumed bike riders for about a mile, if not longer. My neighborhood is so much fun!

Day 302 had a happy halloween!

Halloween is my least favorite "holiday". Holiday is in quotes because I don't know how it even qualifies as that. There's no day off of work, we're not commemorating anyone, we're really just dressing up and drinking our weekend away while in costume. This year, because of the insistence of my roommate, I got a costume and participated in said "holiday". And I actually had a lot of fun. Who knew! This is my crazy roomie and his bf wearing some short shorts as part of their 70's tennis players costumes. Love these crazy kids.

Day 304 is spooky!

Spooky decorations courtesy of my crafty mom. Happy Halloween!

Day 301 decorates cleverly

I pass this house on my way to/from work. They have clever Halloween decorations, that I'm surprised haven't caused a car accident as people stop to look. This was the best shot I could take while stopped at a red light. I can't wait to see their Christmas decorations!

Day 300 gets crafty

For a Halloween party, my friend and I are dressing up as Ghostbusters. Drs. Venkman and Spengler, to be exact. I couldn't be more excited. And we're making our costumes. I went to Home Depot to craft guns to attach to our proton packs, which my friend is making. I can guarentee that I was the only person at Home Depot shopping for a Halloween costume.

Day 291, boo!

Here's another glimpse at my mom's Halloween decorating prowess. A ceramic ghost with a tealight candle, now hanging from a tree. Boo!

Day 279 is a good witch

And the Halloween/autumn decorating continues... Just a little ceramic witch's shoe to spice up this tree!

Day 269 is tasty

Mondays are so much more manageable with Tastykakes. The only thing making their Juniors Halloweenie is putting the word "Jack-o-Lantern" in front. Whatever - I'll take it.

Day 264 hints at Halloween

Here's a sneak peek at my costume for a Halloween birthday party I'm attending in a couple weeks. Hint #1: it's a two part costume and my friend is the other half. Hint #2: it's an outdated pop culture reference. Hint #3: I still need to buy a wig.

Day 54 lends a hand

Now that all of the snow has finally melted I'm finding all sorts of fun items on the lawn. Yes, this is a Barbie doll arm. I put it out at Halloween because I thought dozens of little kids would notice this tiny detail as they ran up for candy, obviously. But seriously folks, I just like cheesy decorations. It's nice to know it's still here and that our neighborhood squirrels didn't snatch it up to create some sort of doll Frankenstein monster. Yet.
