When decorating a house for Halloween in a kid-friendly way, one must include dancing skeletons...right?! Miss L. and I can't get enough of the funny dancing skeletons in our "Boogie-Bones" Garland. It's possible that I may have put the Halloween decor up a little too early. Try explaining (100 times a day) that Halloween isn't for another 3 weeks to a two-year old.
