We started putting out our decorations on October 4th this year since we were unable to attend our annual camping trip to due various scheduling conflicts for all of the parties involved. The kids were big helpers, spreading out the spider webs all over the fence along the front.

    I finished running the electrical wires on Sunday, October 5th. We also put up the cornstalks that we purchased yesterday but didn't get around to taking care of. Finally, some caution tape was added to the fence. I didn't end up taking any daytime pictures, so here are some night photos.
