All Halloween stuff is stored away!! Hooray!
I love it, but after almost a month of seeing it, enough is enough.

Nope. It went up yesterday morning before work, came down before bedtime. Just a hat & mask that need to go back in the loft - I'll do that this weekend. And all for one kid! (It was worth it though - he's a lovely kid.)

I pulled out the Halloween bin yesterday. The ghost lights have been put away already but I'll leave the giant spider candy bowl out for a few days. Halloween isn't what it used to be at our house.  |

I haven’t yet, I need my husband to be here. Too many heavy items to move and ladders to climb.
I’m hoping to get it switched to Thanksgiving today, but we have a pumpkin patch party and drum lessons this evening.

We don't decorate at all for Halloween anymore. When we DID decorate, it was pretty minimal. I tended to decorate more for fall, anyway. Even Xmas is kept to a minimum, and I am fine with that personally - although I do love driving around and seeing everyone else's decorations, and appreciate all of THEIR hard work.  |

No, I had to work. I’ll probably put the small stuff away tonight. I didn’t carve any pumpkins this year, I made a pumpkin succulent craft instead so that will stay out through Thanksgiving.

No, I was at work early this morning to empty my personal stuff out of my office. I'll conquer the Halloween stuff tonight after dinner. It won't take long. I didn't go nuts this year.

We don't do specifically Halloween - ours is more fall decor, with a door swag, wooden pumpkins and a little pumpkin cart with a scarecrow in it - so ours stays up until the day after Thanksgiving.

Yes. I put a nice display of different color pumpkins by my mailbox a month ago. They barely made it to today since I live in crazy hot Texas ! The heat and sun got to them. Next time I’ll put a finish on them.

Mine is all gathered up and waiting on my husband to haul in the totes. We will put the Halloween away and put up our Thanksgiving items tonight.

I don't put up Halloween specific décor but more fall décor so I leave it up until Thanksgiving weekend then I put that away and up goes the Christmas décor.

No - it has rained all day. I will take it down the next non-rainy day, which if the forecast is right will be Saturday.

Yes. All done. Didn't take much time this year because I did very little -- too exhausted by my stupid job to even enjoy my favorite holiday. (Yes, that leftover candy is for is a pity party for one.)

No, I didn't. I'll probably do it on Saturday morning. I did hang a turkey decoration on my front door and took down the Halloween decoration I had on there but other than that, everything is still out. The house will be undecorated for a few weeks (I don't have Thanksgiving decorations) and then once Thanksgiving passes, I will start the Christmas decorations.

I only decorated for Halloween at work. And yup it all came down today. Thanksgiving week the Christmas decor will go up. So for now it's just back to plain old normal.

Yes, but mine is all at work (elementary school library) and it's been up since Oct. 1st. I love Halloween and put out a lot of stuff, but I was ready to pack it up.

I only have 2 things that are more jack o lantern than pumpkin, so I’ll likely leave it all out because I’m lazy lol.

I made my daughter help me and put out Fall stuff. I like Halloween, so it was out since September and I didn't get sick of the stuff. I only decorate my living room.

Sure is. DH just finished putting it away.
I do the same thing at Christmas. The decorations come down the day after.

Nope, but I sure wish I had done it last night. It has been pouring rain since about 5am. Sigh. I’ll just have to drag the mushy spider webs off the bushes since forecast says rain for many more days. I’ll be happy if it’s cleaned up by the 10th. Oi.
