Random Quick Tip!

Festive Halloween Lights
Get yourself a few of those plastic pumpkins and other trick or treat plastic pails. You know, the purple, orange and green ones that you can trick or treat with. Put a short string of lights in each one along your walk way or up your stairs to your front door and light the way for the trick or treaters in a fun and festive way. I did this the first year we were in our new house back in 2002 and we had parents taking pictures of them!
