Decorated the front of the house, and yard w/orange string lights, scarecrows, and scarecrow witches, creepy cloth, pumpkins, and mums. The theme is friendly spooky.

Also made spooky eyes with toilet paper tubes, and glow sticks. Mason jar lanterns with fake spider webs, plastic bugs, and led tea lights, and some dollar tree ghost kits.
Those three things were projects I did w/ the special needs child next door.

The rain is now falling, and thunderstorms are expected through Saturday. I usually have about 200 trick or treaters, but with 11 churches doing “trunk or treat”, and rain, I will probably have a lot of snickers, and m & m’s around here.

Have out apples and noise makers a few years back and the trick or treaters stopped coming

Several of local churches have children dress as Bible characters. Best ones I’ve seen were three young boys dressed as the armor of God with shield , swords and body armor covered with tags of truth, love etc.
Their mom said they got into a battle on which would wear which attribute so with their help they made three copies of each
