Default Looks like no yard display for me this year

It's a good and bad thing, bad because no display this year and good because, we're moving into an apartment to pay some bills off so we can buy our own house in the next year or so.

Looks like mostly what I'll be looking for and posting about this year is Halloween party ideas and decoration tips.

Sorry to hear that you won't have a display this year, but best of luck on the house. There are years when I wish I could just take a year off, not decorate or anything, but people come from all over now and they expect us to be here. Enjoy your time off, maybe visit some other displays and steal, um, I mean, borrow, some of their ideas for a later date. I've been workin on our party ideas and details for the past year, so anytime you want to talk party....I'm ready!

It's understandable that you want to save for a house; best of luck to you.

Just think - you'll have lots of time for planning.

I skiped a year or two of doing my outside display. Its hard no to want to, but the break can be nice.
In ur sitituation, the rewards will be great by owning ur own home.
Best of luck with the move, and best wishes for when u find that house.

There's quite a bit of your haunt you can still use and do in the apartment for your party. Not to mention all the costume and makeup things you can do to really make a totally over-the-top party.

You have definitely got your priorities in order. Save up and get that house - then knock their socks off!

Glad you are trying to get a house thats good...
who knows maybe you can still do a small one at your apt . like roadkill says inside ,or I guess you will have to see who's doing what where you will be living.

Eyes,

You might take a peek at this vid.
The Haunted Balcony from Hamburg folks have done very well with a very tight spot.

I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what appt. we get (ground floor and its’ layout) to see just what I can do with it. I am going to plan a party and dec the inside out nice big-time and I will be coming to you guys and gals (trish) for help with that. Y’all are right a house of my own is the most important thing at this stage but, I will miss sitting in my garage watching the kids play in the yard while I work on a prop….we’ll see what happens. Thanks for all you guys support.

Sometimes a break is a real good thing.
