Lunch Bag Friday: Dead Man's Party


Happy Lunch Bag Friday!  We kinda get into Halloween around here... just a bit.   We don't really like to wait until October to start celebrating and neither do our lunch sacks.  :)   Oingo Boingo's song "Dead Man's Party" was the inspiration behind this deadly lunch bag duo.  A week ago our youngest begged and begged to have our family watch "Monster House" one night after decorating for Halloween.  She felt like watching something Halloweeny and was proud that her daddy helped animate that movie back in 2006.  We warned her over and over it was probably too scary, but finally we caved to her pleadings.  Sure enough she was freaked out and got after her daddy for sometimes animating scary movies.  hahahaha   (fyi- She's fine now, by the end she liked it).


For fun I thought I'd share some of our Halloween decorations this year that we have up so far....


Witch's Brew in the fireplace.  I loved our daughter's idea to put lights in the cauldron to look like it was hot and boiling. 



Front Entry way.  The kids love to play and decorate with that huge, hairy spider and put him in different places- so it feels like he wanders around the house when we aren't looking.  For now, he's guarding the stairs and admire the little Halloween silhouettes I made of our family this last week.  :)


Close ups of our silhouettes I made.  They were a lot of fun.


Family Room-  I love sewing and that dress in the corner was my oldest daughter's Halloween vampire costume she helped me sew last year.  I also designed and made the little felt advent calendar countdown to Halloween on the right side of the photo.

The real beauty in all of our decor is the family painting that Seth made of us a few years ago.  We love it so much we just keep it up year round!  :)


Top of entertainment center.  These Disney BigFigs have a place in our home year round too.   hehe


Our girls like animating like their daddy.  Nothing like some spooky decor to inspire a little stop-motion animation.  They are currently saving up for an ipod to create much better animation than their 3ds, but they still have fun.  They did this bit last Sunday and they figured out all on their own how to make it look like she was flying.  We were so proud.  :)

Well Happy Haunting this next month!  Enjoy the fall and think of us.  :)  More spooky lunch sacks to come!
