Hey, if it was a real deer, I wouldn't be laughing about it. I would respect the hunter and the huntee, hoping good use would be made from the deer. But since it's just a light-up Christmas decoration, bleeding further decoration, it's simply hilarious.

It also seems that Tinkerbell has increased in height about 450,000%. Hmm... :D:

When you stack them, stack them face to face, then back to back, then fact to fact, ...

I do that when I need to store finish molding before I am ready to use it.

Nice pictures!

It does sadden me a bit that I could get into decorating for Halloween more than Christmas, but then again Christmas decorations can be lot of work (wrapping lights, hanging them, putting the deer together...), whereas Halloween is much easier. Deer parts apart, no problem, toss lights on ground, arrange them a little, plug in, done!

Me too..lol I think what it is that people have been decorating for Xmas longer and there is only so much you can do with it creative-wise. What, you got snowmen santas and some barn scene? Been there done that. But with Halloween the options are limitless. Anything from cute little pumpkins to a skeleton ghost ship to a full blown haunted house and more ppl actually get to see your handiwork up close. How many people get out of their cars and come look at Xmas decs?

In the meantime here are some pics of this years set up. I think we are going to attempt an actual haunted courtyard for next year if I can get the neighbors to help.
Ignore all the junk on the front porch...lol
This is great! Beautiful decorations for Halloween! I used to decorate until the evil stager I hired packed ALL of my holiday decor and put in the pile to be stored, AFTER we had agreed to leave all holiday decorations in my storeroom. Everything, Yup even ALL my Christmas stuff went to storage behind my back, along with all my winter clothes that were in boxes in the storeroom because it was Summer. She just decided on her own after *agreeing with me to leave certain boxes I pointed out to her* that they needed to go away! :mad: I am not going to go out and buy hundreds of dollars of decorations when I have them already. Really ticked me off, cause I like to put up my decor for Halloween. I had a few cool things, like a screeching cat and a glowing jack-o-lantern...Grrrr....When everything comes out of storage, 100 yrs from now, I will decorate again. It makes me mad everytime a holiday comes up, 4th of July, Halloween, Christmas, Winter, when I need my sweaters because it is SNOWING and COLD here...What a twit! :badmood: :2fingers: :pissed: :rtfm: I shoulda stood over her the whole time. I fired her several days later for some other B.S. she pulled in my house.

Love that graveyard...Great imagination you have!

Thanks. I just love the fact that I dont have to rake leaves for all of OCT. My reasoning is that it adds to the ambiance. LOL

Cant you get your stuff out of the storage Susi?
