This was something my dad used to do when I was a kid. Next year when the kids will remember the person in the scarecrow, it will actually be stuffed, and I'll be hiding somewhere else!
View from a little further away, my husband was hiding behind the screen door controlling a spider that dropped from above ๐

I really do, Halloween is a close second for my favorite holiday. I like to diy-ish the decorations, especially using stuff I've grown (the straw here was actually dried garlic stalks), and I'm slowly adding stuff year to year with the eventual goal of being that house.
