We have been so excited for Halloween this year!
Chance is excited about it enough for our WHOLE family.
So, as soon as the last week in September arrived.....
We decorated!
I think that the holidays are so magical for children, and the memories we make for them and with them are the ones that they will carry fondly throughout their lives.So we do several holiday crafts together.
These little pumpkins were so simple, yet cute and something the boys could pretty much do on their own.
Chance is actually holding Hunter's and vice versa, but they had a great time regardless.
Aren't these darling? So quick and fun to make, yet add so much.
I put candles in mine so it is fun to see the little candle flicker.
I saw these on several websites, but I think the originator was

I LOVE that other people have great ideas, and that they are willing to share them with people like me :)
I also took the boys pictures this fall, and got them up. I love the way the fake leaves add to the picture wall.
More Fall colors, and our Halloween book stash.
My friend Christie and I got together and with her woodcutting skills, we made these pumpkins.
www.brownpaper--packages.blogspot.com came up with this one.

More Fall colors, and our Halloween book stash. I think I need to add to the Halloween books because I am beginning to memorize the ones we have.
Last but not least, we have our "Hall of Ghosts and Bats"
I am not super extravagant with my holiday decorating, but it is fun for the boys

Yes, that is all that matters. Your boys will always remember your flair and that theirs is the momma who always takes those few extra measures to make everything special.

Tammy, you're such a fun crafty mom! I especially love the votives, I should try those! I need to be better about making those fun memories for and with my kids, it's true what you say-those ARE the things they remember...
You're such a fun Mom Tammy. Your kids will remember all those fun things you've done for them. They will look back at their childhood with smiles. You inspire me!
