I'm seriously on the countdown until vacation. It can not get here fast enough! :) I know I know that I seem to rush every holiday but this is my favorite time of the year! Here are some things I'm looking forward to..
1- Decorating my Halloween tree. Yes I just said Halloween tree. It's tiny but super cute. I'm thinking I might start on this this weekend. I can't wait to post some pictures.
2- Pumpkins and Mums! I've already put my fall wreath out and I'm working on some fake pumpkins in my lanterns but I can't WAIT for pumpkins and Mums. I am trying to restrain myself so they will be pretty for Halloween but it's soo hard!
3- Halloween- I can NOT contain my excitement! Our neighborhood is slam packed full of kiddos. I can't wait to greet each and everyone of them in their adorable costumes! I was sooo sad last year that we moved in after Halloween. We also missed our neighborhoods haunted trail. I am really hoping they do this again this year. I am debating about getting a costume. We've been invited to a costume party that I really want to go to this year. I love a theme and a reason to dress up! I debated dressing up our dog, Kasey but the Hubs will probably squash that idea! Hahaha..
4- Thanksgiving. Ok so I'm not as excited about this holiday. I don't really like the food at Thanksgiving. Seriously.. My Grandma on my Dad's side always makes us Chicken n' Dumplings because there are quite a few on my side that aren't the biggest fans of turkey and ham. I do look forward to the desserts and seeing my family. I'm going to try a new approach this year. I want to focus on what I'm thankful for.. not the food.
5- CHRISTMAS! I mean does this holiday need to be explained! I'm already plotting Christmas tree designs this year. YES I have multiple trees! I love each and everyone. They all have a theme. I think I may shake some up a bit this year. I love all the parties, church services, and just being around the ones that you love. Presents are great but I seriously think people focus way too much on presents. Maybe I focus too much on decorating but I love it! I almost cry every year when it's time to take it all down.
Linking up with Leslie.
Awww so cute! Halloween is right around the corner....I better get my bum in gear and start decorating! Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteI think a Halloween tree sounds cute! I would be tempted to go make one right now (but we may or may not be moving, so I don't want to bother with decorations this year, not knowing if I'll have to just pack them up). I love Halloween. It is just about fun; no stressful gift-shopping.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited that it's fall and all the holidays are coming up! :)
ReplyDeleteFall is my absolute fav time of the year.
ReplyDeleteI have put some fall decor out and I am excited for the rest
