Day 6: Halloween decor shopping at Philips

We don't have a lot of Halloween decorations around the house.  Every year we add about one item to our decorations so that eventually we will have a good mix of Halloween decorations. Our daughter has been excited to go shopping at the "Halloween store" to pick something out.  

We started at the Halloween City pop up store over on St. Charles and Rt 83.  She has asked over and over if we could go in the store.    So we went.  And it was mostly full of this...

If you want a place to get a costume, this is a good place to go.  They had a big variety  My daughter loved looking at the costumes, but there were so many scary masks and statues that it didn't take long before she said "uhhh..I think we should check somewhere else".  Keep in mind that she is only 4.  She actually likes villains and ghosts, but the Disney kind.  This was a little much and didn't have much in the way of decorations.  

We were on our way to see Dr. Kelly at Tree of Life and we happened to park near Phillip's Flowers and Gifts.  Once we got our of car and our daughter saw all the Halloween decorations and flowers and exclaimed "oh..a Halloween Store!".  I explained that it was a florist, but we went in.  They had the CUTEST decorations.  They were having a 50% sale for Halloween decorations which was even better!

They had more the decorations I was looking for.  I was eyeing a very cute decoration with three pumpkins that lit up.  As I showed her the decoration she spied a bright green, glittery pumpkin.  She so very proudly picked it up and announced that THIS was the one we needed to take to our house.  I tried to sell her on the three light up pumpkins, but she was insistent.  It was pretty cute so that was the one we brought home.  Here is her picture - proudly holding her choice for this years' decoration!
