It's October!!!

I have been so ready for fall...not to mention the month of October. I started pulling out all of my Halloween decorations. This is the time of year that I come alive. The energy in the air is what drives me. Everything that comes with the season makes me ooze with excitement. Pumpkins, cider, haunted stories, bonfires and most of all All Hallows Eve.  I've been focusing on getting the mantle decorated today. I've had to go back 3 times and add then take away things. Keep in mind most of these items are already lurking about my house with the exception of a few cheap finds. I just pull everything together and display in one area and voila'... instant creepy. So without further delay...here's a couple of pics!  

Happy Haunting Everyone!

The Mantle...note my copy of Coraline :)

The Ocular Martini!
