Halloween is one of my favorites, so they will go up soon.... end of Sept. and stay up a bit past Halloween. We are going all out this year. a ton of pumkins, spider webs, ghosts, etc. I love Holidays and so does Lexi.

They go up the first part of October usually...however, with baby girl due Oct 18, they may not go up since she could be late and I could possibly not get around to putting the decorations away

My fall stuff was up last week and my halloween stuff went up yesterday. Halloween will come down shortly after the 31st and I'll leave the fall stuff til the day after Thanksgiving when I get all the Christmas stuff out.

Me too. Only ds wanted to put one ghost yard stake up early so he is there already (the ghost that is).

About a week before halloween I hang a spider wreath on my door and we carve a pumpkin -- woo, I'm festive, eh?

I time it with the First Day of Autumn. DH took down the boxes from the attic this weekend and we put some stuff up. I do a little Halloween and a lot of harvest-theme. (think lots of pumpkins)

We'll do the outside of the house the first or second weekend of October!

I do the same, I already pulled my tubs of decorations out and can't wait! I do daycare and end up doing a whole month of the Halloween theme. Holidays are always fun!

Well my son is excited that Halloween is coming up. Ill try to hold off on putting up decorations until the 2nd week of Oct.
Got some really gross bloody hand prints to put up on the window, its gross but different.
Thats the only yucky thing I bought, the rest are just paper pumpkins & ghosts.

What's the WD-40 trick?
