Dem Bones

…are surprisingly easy!

The Things are super excited about them, and well, I am too.  I’m a sweet and salty combo gal.  Candy?  Not so much….but I’ll knock you over for some kettle corn or chocolate covered pretzels.  We just got some Wilton molds from Michaels and the recommended candy melts…add your own pretzels and looky!

We worked outside all weekend finishing the new steps and stringing spider webs, but now there are tornado sirens going, so I’ve moved to indoor preparations.  More photos when I can emerge from the house without the threat of hurricane force winds…

    Yeah, I think you know you’re going to have to have this party EVERY year right??? Cause after those other parents see what you guys have done???
    They will throw in the proverbial Halloween towel.
    I mean, who else’s Mom would be cool enough to wear a Medusa wig with a vintage Halston caftan????:)

    It’s possible..but it’s really all about the wig and everyone has seen it already…we’ll see how it all comes together…
