1 Day: Neighborly Spooks aka the corpses

For all intents and purposes, today is Halloween for us so we will be taking costume pictures and cute baby pictures (providing we have a cooperative baby) so stay tuned for tomorrow!

Today I wanted to pay homage to the amazing neighborhood Halloween decorations. We have several full scale front yard cemeteries, zombies galore, giant pumpkins, a giant blow up haunted house, and even an alien invasion! Alas, I only took photos of one neighbor. Get excited. If you've been a long-time blog reader, you will recognize these neighbors decorations as the corpses. I've shown you how they decorate for Thanksgiving and Easter. I had to assume they'd get Halloween right. I was not disappointed.

First, they had floating dancing skeletons! Pretty cool, eh?

This orange light pumpkin was out for the Thanksgiving post, but now with the addition of the cats and a bat hanging upside down.

If you look past the pumpkin to the front door, you'll see an old man dummy with gray hair. I learned that each year they leave that dummy out all October, then dress in the same clothes, including the mask, for Halloween night and sit out and scare the trick-or-treaters.

And finally, what you've been waiting for, the corpses. They are darned hard to get a photo of with the house post and trees and such in the way.

Witch and Warlock? Plus, look at all those rope lights hanging from the gutter! Maybe we'll have to visit again tonight to see all the lights in action.

There you have it! Happy Halloween!
