A new member in the Kenward Halloween family...

Meet our newest addition to the Kenward Halloween family. Isn't he a lovely Dracula?



Chris is in full swing with the outdoor Halloween decorations. The front porch is very festive and the graveyard,tombstones and creatures are all in place. He's still working his electrical engineering magic for proper lighting. Stay tuned for outdoor pictures.

Over the years, I have several friends who have given me some very lovely Halloween decorations (thanks, Dr. Beth). Seventeen years later, these have turned into some amazing collections that I'm always excited to display on my fireplace mantle and my sixteen foot shelf in the sunroom. Because everything goes up in stages at our house, I've taken a few pictures of my fireplace mantle and a picture of my favorite Halloween ornament (Frankenstein).



Yes, those are eyeballs and mini skulls scattered across the fireplace mantle.



I haven't even begun to unpack my prized collections that go on my sunroom shelf. I'm finding it's much harder to decorate this year with a toddler who ALSO wants to assist. Keep checking back for more pictures!!
