Do you decorate for Halloween? It seems that Halloween is either a love it or hate it kind of holiday. Before I had kids, I didn’t love Halloween. Like, at all. You might even say I hated it. (Gasp) I didn’t decorate for Halloween, except maybe a sad, lonely pumpkin on the front step. Back then, Halloween just meant having to rush home from work (where I basically lived before having kids) just to pass out candy to strangers. But times change. These days we now we live on a cul de sac of 30+ kids. In a neighbourhood of 132,549 kids. (OK, maybe I exaggerate, but it seems like it some days). And, we have 3 kids of our own. Now, I’m a Halloween convert. I have to be, lol.

Halloween Decorating: Black & White with Polka Dots

I said last week that I wasn’t going to bother with much Halloween decorating this year, particularly a  mantel. Ha! I should know better by now than to say such things! Even though our Fall mantel (with the giant peel and stick posters of our kids) could have stuck around through Halloween, I got the urge to change things up!  I was a little sad to take down the giant photos, but they’ll find a place in our Fall decorating again next year.
