"Getting Zombie Figures Ready"

 Still working on painting them, I'm having a bit of trouble choosing a color scheme for each.

  (still working on this one)

 But I think they are coming out pretty good.

 

Just to give an idea of what they look like before paint.

and yes these will be given away later this month.

Eating Monster Brains

These were fun to make and eat.....well I didn't help much in making them but you can bet I helped make them disappear.  I'm not going to take credit for this treat, it was the wife's idea.

These are the items needed, you can use your choice of flavors.

Go crazy when making your own monster faces on the cups.

First step it to make the pudding, just follow the instructions on the box, they vary depending on the one you buy. Next fill the cups (oh yeah using clear cups is best) about 3/4 of the way.

Crush up your cookies (oreos in our case) in what ever fun way you want.

 

Last sprinkle some crushed cookies on top and that's it you done.

Those are my little monsters feet.

Enjoy!!!

The First Day

Happy 1st day of October and the start of a fun filled month of Halloween themed goodies.
I will start of by saying that if you read my blog last year I tried to post everyday of the month, made it more than half way and failed. So this year instead of pulling out my hair because I didn't post anything in a day I will be posting a few times a week and maybe twice a day if there is something that I have to share. Also this year my wife and I were blessed with a beautiful baby girl so that also means that majority of my attention will go to her because she is awesome :)

Well let’s start the fun, the background in the my blog has six "Horror Movie Houses" you can scroll up and down to see them, there is only six of them and the picture is repeated so that you can see them all (hopefully). This if for fun, so try to name all the houses that are pictured in any order and name the ones you can.

Have Fun!

Thanks for reading

Halloween Countdown Day #4

"Candy Haul"

Well What can i say but I think that kids enjoy Halloween for the candy tho' i may be wrong. HA! yeah right hell when i have kids i think ill use them as an excuse to go out and get my own bag of candy, no i know what you're thinking I'm just going to take theirs....well yes and no i remember

Some of my favorite candy i just don't see anymore I'm not sure if its because i got to old to trick 'r treat or the fact that i just stopped eating candy in all. I stopped because, well I hate to say it but I didn't listen to my parents and didn't brush regularly, but i couldn't resist the dang candy. Some of my favorites were hard candy with something inside like the strawberry flavored candy wrapped in strawberry wrapper  or that cherry flavored candy that had bubble gun inside of it, I bet you were like me and didn't wait to finish most of the outer candy and just crunched your way to the center. Those were just some of the candy that I hoped to see when I poured out my bag of treats on the living room floor at the end of night.

What are These?

While still on the topic of Halloween candy I will now talk about the stuff that I didn't want to see in my bag, that stuff some grownups from another neighborhood probably gave to kids that were not from their street. It was that type of candy that if you put your bag of sweets in the closet and forgot about it and found it when digging for whatever it is you are looking for but know you will never find, but instead stumble across the bag and the candy would still look fresh and edible.......but you won,t eat it.....will you?

Oh and for those that grew up in the south like me.......

this would have been the holy grail if found in your Halloween bag.

"Happy Memories"

Oh Yeah!  What was your favorite candy to get or hated to get? Let me know in the comments below.

      

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well I'm a day late, but its my first time so bare with me. I enjoy the Halloween season because its the first time we feel cooler weather and the best part is it marks the start of decorating season.

What is decorating season you ask well its that time of the year when the holidays are just around the corner and decorations get taken out and put up. We put up some of our Halloween decorations yesterday late in the evening after a episode of The Walking Dead, trying to catch the wife up on the series as she was a late bloomer to the show, it was dark when we stepped out to put them up she didn't want any lights on so no one can see the decorations until we were done. A bit of advice use some light when putting that fake spider web up it gets a bit crazy.

I'll leave you with that to think about, in another note i will be posting a bit of everything in this blog
it will be Halloween themed as its the month of October it will also count down to that important day of the month and will follow suit with the other holidays and months to come. I also have a Faceboook Page that shows the toys of my past and maybe yours to i have giveaways and other cool stuff from time to time so stop by and say hi....oh and don't forget to LIKE my Page.
