Making Halloween

I LOVE HALLOWEEN. Seriously, I think it's the best holiday! I LOVE trick or treating, fall weather, ghosts, witches, pumpkins, candy... all of it! So of course, I tend to go all out for my favorite holiday. Jude is only 1, so he doesn't really appreciate it all now, but I know when he gets older he'll love all the fun Halloween around our home!
Our house is totally decked out. Here are some quick shots of our place:

Our front window. I made some hanging pumpkin and ghost chains-- yay $1 section at Target!

front entry

Hanging bats! Jude LOVES the bats. He always wants to be picked up so he can touch each one.

Yes, I put spider webs on a picture of the temple...

Another favorite of Jude's

Our window witch! I painted this on using a giant stencil I found online. It lights up at night really nicely

Our balcony. Lots of window paint and fun lights!

Our back window (it's blurry but you get the idea)

Last weekend we went to a local pumpkin patch in San Jose! It was pretty good for a small farm. Unfortunately, they only accepted cash so we had to pay in laundry quarters...

Jude loved the little pumpkins. He tried to pick them all up

We tried sooo hard to get a picture of Jude with the pumpkins, but alas, he was way too wiggly. Here are our best attempts:

Jude plays in a giant pumpkin

Family hay ride

Jude leads Mom through the hay maze. We actually made it to the end!

And the final product of our pumpkin gathering:

Doctor Who fans, you understand the awesomeness
