[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven’t put anything up yet, but I’m planning what we’ll do this year. We have a tradition here that all the decorations go up on October 1, and for 31 days we watch clips of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

The older kids start designing their costumes in September so we have time to make them, and the little ones start planning their costumes and making any little crafts they want to display. Then on 9/30 and 10/31, we have a decorating party (just our family with snack food and spooky music) and we do a big fall cleaning and decorating. It’s the best way to get the kids excited about cleaning. You can’t decorate a messy room, so let’s wash those baseboards and vacuum the heck out of this place!

Then we take down the Halloween specific decor the first week of November, and start planning any Christmas decorations we need to make or buy. The full transition happens Thanksgiving weekend. We have a similar process for winter decorating except switching from TNBC to Frosty and Rudolph. [/quote]

And you put it all on Facebook, right?[/quote]
