Halloween anyone?

I love Halloween and I love October. Today, which is the 1st of Oct., we went to go get our projected Halloween decorations. I will be attempting to make webs for the East end of the trailer (visible to our neighbors on that side) and a smaller one between our windows on the South side, both with spiders on them. I found a cute string garland with black fringe and white skulls on it, to hang along the awning edge. We found some fabric flowers, sunflowers and mexican marigolds, to put in the vase outside and put that in front of Selina (our tarantula) in her cage. I have a skull covered in silver glitter out there, too, but that might make it inside because the glitter will get away, and then I want to have something inside. I asked one of my friends to give me their recycled milk jugs, so that we can make our milk jug skeletons, again. I will hang one up at my mom's grave, and the other one will be given away, but they will be hung at either end of the awning until they are fully made. We can make the skulls and the rib cages now (which should be fun). I am thinking about what we can do for John's birthday on the 12th, and then again, Leo's birthday is the 25th of Oct. and he is planning on a laser tag birthday party. Should be a fun month, all together. I love being here in San Diego for this time of year, but sometime in the future, I would really love to be in Mexico for Day of the Dead celebrations. I love my life!
