We unknowingly moved onto the Halloween street of Vacaville :) Over the months leading up to the big night, we had been told rumors of thousands of trick or treaters coming to our house and every house on the street going all out with decorations!! Naturally, we didn't want to be the only house on the block to not be festive... so Ryan and I brainstormed for neat ideas. We decided to make our yard a creepy graveyard!! And I think it looked pretty cool!!
Ryan made all the gravestones!! He is super talented and did an amazing job!! Adding the pumpkins, lanterns and crows and such really made our graveyard look creepy :)
Ryan thought this idea was silly, but I really thought this was a great idea for a creative gravestone name. Plus, it was my idea sooooooo....
It rained super hard all day :( but our yard weathered the storm alright !!
We all had so much fun watching all the neighbors set up and seeing our little Hawk Ct transform into Halloween Town!! Our neighbors across the street had a huge Nightmare Before Christmas train set that was super cool. The kids looooved it!
Elsie was a bit hit as a little old lady...the cutest little old lady EVER!!!!
Ryan also made the ghost above Myra Mains' gravestone-hehe. Nad our neighbors let us borrow the cute spiders that made the webs all over our yard :)
Our neighbors cool scarecrow...
Jane was a cute little witch!! The kids had so much fun trick or treating around our cul de sac!! And they were able to see a lot of church friends, school friends and neighborhood friends :)
Another neighbor did some pretty neat pumpkins...
This floating head was pretty creepy...
On the morning of Halloween, I got to see Jane in a little Halloween parade at her school. She was sweet and let Beckham walk around with her. They held hands the whole way and it was the sweetest!!
Another cool pumpkin from our neighborhood!
Since there are literally thousands of trick or treaters who come to our street, we just set up at the end of our driveway!! We had a nice little set up.
Another creepy pumpkin...
This zombie was gross and there was another one inside...
Here's another graviton from our yard...we had the best graveyard for sure :)
We filled up this huge cauldron at least 2 and a half times...There were ALOT of trick or treaters!
This was in the yard across the street.
There is one man on our street who is a Disney imagineer. He has all sorts of Haunted mansion things...including this scary ghost. She talked to us, too!
Our house looked super cool at night!!
The police came to block off our street for Halloween night and they let Beckham sit in the car!! He thought that was super neat!!
OOOH CREEPY!!
We hope everyone had an amazing Halloween like we did!! What a fun neighborhood we live in!!!
