The beginning of the Decorations!


It has begun, the preparations for our homegrown cemetery...The boys are so excited, Xander especially.  The following is only the beginning.  We still have ghosts to put up and details to add.  Our neighbors have told us that so far, it's looking pretty creepy :)

Rod begins the task of putting in the headstones.  The ground was completely frozen yesterday.  Not the ideal temp for hammering stakes into the ground.  Of course today was 72*  Go figure...


The spider from last year...this year, she had babies.  If you look closely there are a few little ones hanging on!


Our dead pirate on the door.  You knock, he says scary piratey things with lovely stormy sounds in the background...his eyes even light up!


The boys looking terrified in the cemetery.  Xander said he was pointing at a ghost... can you see it?


These headstones are on the wall of our house behind the cemetery.  I just hope they stay up until Halloween!


Playing in the cemetery - I've never been so proud (sniff sniff).


More Pictures to come...once the ghosts join the fray!
