Halloween Decorations Are Up! (Inside)

We go all out with Halloween decorations inside & outside of our house. 

Our house is completely full of tons of jack-o-lanterns, witches, ghosts, bats, scarecrows, black cats, spiders, spider webs, vampires, orange & purple lights and much more everywhere! 

Here are just a few pictures of some of the inside decorations.

There are about 7 of these bats hanging from the ceiling in the kitchen & living room! I made them myself.

Just some of the cardboard hang ups!

Just part of the fridge. We have the window clings all over the fridge and windows!

There are plenty of more things up, but these are just a few of the pictures I took! 

I will be sure to take pictures at night too! With all of the lights, spiderwebs, jack-o-lanterns, & candles lit up the whole house has an orange glow! I LOVE IT.

The house smells like pumpkin spice & mulled cider thanks to candles & sprays! It is perfect....

Fall 2010 Leaves.

One of my favorite thing about Fall is the cool weather. I love going outside & taking pictures of all of the different colors of leaves. The leaves have already started to change this year! Even though the main color out there is still green, you can see some yellows, reds, & browns. Not a whole lot, but they're there! 

Here are some of my favorite pictures that I took last fall of the leaves.

Now I am just waiting till it looks like this outside again...shouldn't be too much longer!! My yard is the best ever in the Fall!!

Halloween Party Planning Has Begun...

And I am SO EXCITED!!

Halloween is pretty much my favorite time of the year.

The decorations, movies, costumes, candy, scents, cool weather, leaves changing colors...everything!!

So planning has just started for my sister & I's 2nd annual Halloween party!!

Just throwing different ideas around and figuring out if we want to have a specific theme or not.

We want to MAKE a lot of the decorations, invitations, foods ourselves.

Martha Stewart has THE best Halloween ideas.

Here are just a few that we are considering doing!

Cardboard Graveyard! Maybe putting our guests names on the tombstones!?

Lots and lots of spiderwebs! 

Loving these homemade invitations!

Those are great looking ghosts in that grave yard! 

I will be sure to update every step of the way & show lots and lots of pictures!

Trans-Siberian Orchestra

I have always loved Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Christmas songs. 

My favorite is definitely Christmas Canon!

Going to the Christmas concert is something I have always wanted to do &yesterday I found out that the tickets were on sale & I had to get some for me & my boyfriend!

It looks like they put on a great live show-not just with the music but with all of the lights they use.

So we will be going on December 1st! Exactly one week after Thanksgiving! I'm so excited!

Of course I am looking forward to going through Halloween & Thanksgiving first...

I love the holidays!

Trying Something New!

I took a trip to Walmart the other day and decided to try a few new things.

FIRST! Genesis Today Wake Me drink.

It is suppose to give you energy and help with the "afternoon slump".

It has an orange juice taste to it-and considering I don't like orange juice-it wasn't the best drink I've ever had.

BUT it did work! Almost right a way.

SECOND! Genesis Today Relax Me drink.

It is suppose to, like it says, relax you. 

It is a berry tea. Disgusting taste. I had to hold my nose the whole time I drank it. 

BUT it did work! Almost right away. However it made me so sleepy and so "relaxed" that I couldn't hardly do a thing. I felt so weird! I don't think I'll be drinking this one again...

And the last thing I got was Reese's Dessert Bar. 

Mixing the crust together...

Mixing the peanut butter middle filling

Covering the chocolate crust with the peanut butter filling.

After coating it all in chocolate....

DELICIOUS.

It was SO delicious and it was so good it didn't make it through the night!

It's beginning to look like Fall...

The other day me & my mommy went to Walmart together and loaded up on a TON of Fall decorations, sprays, candles, and plug-ins. 

One of my favorite things about Fall is the smells. I love the scent of pumpkin spice, mulled cider, and apple cinnamon! Now our whole house smells like it. 

We also got some leaves, berries, pine cones, and pumpkins to go in the votive candle holders. 

Having this up on our mantle makes the whole house smell like fall and look like it too! 

The weather is also starting to cool down. I couldn't be more ready to whip out those Halloween decorations and Halloween movies! Hurry up, October!
