Fall Decorating/Shopping Day

I finally put out my (very simple) fall decorations yesterday.  The weather dipped into the 70’s (coldfront!) this weekend and I figured I better take advantage of the opportunity of it being somewhat fallish.  Plus, I was getting sick of just looking at the boxes that held all the decorations in them.  

Here are a few pics of how it all turned out:

Florida spin on the fall…seashells with autumn leaves

  

Flower centerpiece on our kitchen table

  

Another cute scarecrow

  

Notice the 2 little pumpkins on each end of the TV stand

  

The best for last…Tom the Turkey! My favorite!

 

After decorating, I ran to Party City to check out the Halloween costumes. Every year we attend our dear friends annual party, where my husband & I like to dress as a couple if we can. Here are some pics of our prior couple costumes: 

 

Pirate theme

 
 

Popeye & Olive Oil

 
 

The Cat & Cat Burgular

 
 

Nerd & Naughty Teacher

 
 

A fisherman & his fish

 
 

Ninja & Geisha

 
 

Ninja Turtles

 

Originally, I wasnt sure if we would be attending the party this year because our FET was scheduled for the same week and I would have been on bedrest.  However, since the FET is off, we will be going & having some much needed fun.  My husband wants us to be clowns this year (dont ask my why, I think they are creepy), so thats what I was on the hunt for at Party City. I ended up buying bits and pieces of accessories to put together our costumes instead of purchasing the pre-packaged in a bag costumes.  I will be a cute clown, and he will be more of an evil looking clown (even creepier!).  I will post pics after!
