I just love those cute pictures of the kids. We haven't done the haunted house yet. It looks a little messy. The kids would love it though. Love your list. Happy Autumn. :-)

I love the scarecrow-cute! I am hunting for the photos of a scarecrow I made a few years ago. As it gets closer to Halloween I'll post it.

I've never made a gingerbread house but always wanted to give it a try.
