While there is a part of me that is extremely saddened to experience the end of summer, there is a bigger part of me that is thrilled to see the arrival of fall. The constant flutter of falling leaves and cooler breezes are more than welcome as far as I am concerned. Not to mention the thought of Halloween being just around the corner.
B.O.B. Bob and I are already gearing up to make this Halloween the best one yet, which sure does require a lot of sweat, tears, and in most cases, a fight or two between us. We don’t always craft well together. In the end, we always create some great stuff together, however, more often than not, a lot of snipping, nagging, and incessant whining goes into it. Which means, afterward, we’re gonna need a lot of deviled egg therapy before we speak to one another again.

Curious about what our previous Halloween years and themes looked like? Check them all out above. And yes, lots of nagging, whining, and words of anger were uttered to help turn these creative Halloween scenes into a reality. Thank God for deviled egg therapy. Without it, I’m not sure if B.O.B. Bob and I would ever speak to one another again.
Stay tuned for several upcoming posts showing this year’s “The Nightmare Before Christmas” theme, or follow us on Instagram to get sneak peeks of behind the scenes Halloween crafting and bickering. You never know, perhaps we’ll finally get angry enough at one another to start throwing deviled eggs at each other during the spookification process, instead of eating our feelings afterward. If it does happen, I promise to take a few pictures to share with y’all.
