Marcus the Carcass is out


We've started our Halloween decorating. Inside only though. I decorate the outside usually the night before or the day of Halloween.

This is the view from my  kitchen sink. I was tired of staring out at the gross deck that needs to be torn down. So I put out some pumpkins. I think I should sit a scarecrow or a skeleton out there on the bench don't you think?

All the Martha Stewart Halloween decorations were on sale at Micheals.



Griffy does not like this guy one bit.
Here are the kids last year.



That's Marcus the Carcass. I got him at Target a few years ago. Everyone loves him. Isn't he a riot?
I haven't bought one piece of candy. I just can't yet. I'd eat it all. I have no restraint when it comes to Recees Peanut Butter cups.

  1. Great job!
    I can't buy the good candy yet either. I buy candy corn and sweet tarts...cause I don't like that....but chocolate would never make it 'til Oct. 31!

  2. I love that shot of the front door. The pumpkins up top are so sweet, and the ones in the urn look fantastic!
    There is no candy coming in this house until Oct. 30...I can't have it around!
    Trying to eat more veggies,

    Also, thanks for the crockpot cookbook idea. It's a great one and I use it all the time.

  10. We have a Marcus the Carcass too. I love that guy. I bought him the first year we were married. He was our first Halloween decoration... ever. Sadly he may have to retire. After 12 great years, he's not looking so good. He still lights up like a champ, but he's cracked in all the wrong places :o)
