Fall of Festivities #7

This year, the city has decided to turn Nephi into Halloweentown.  Each business, school organization, or family can make a monster and display them along Main Street.  I was a little skeptical of this at first.  I thought no one would do it.  Boy was I wrong.  The other night, Matt and I hopped in the car and drove around to look at all of the displays.  There were cute ones, the clever, to gory.  Here are some of my favorites:

This is probably the most gory one created by the Fire Department and the EMT's. 
DSCN0630
Lisa's Country Kitchen created this "Haunted Cafe"

I believe a family did this one.

I'm sure Jeremy and Bailee feel like the dentist is ALWAYS a torturing skeleton.

I didn't have the right angle on this one. But the face of this guy is the clown from "It"  Creeeepy.

I like the headless horseman at WellsFargo!!  Run Ichabod Run!!

Various monsters in front of City Hall.

Another City Hall shot.

I'm sure the headless horseman could buy a head from Jack Skellington at the Hair Salon.

All cracks aside, Tolley Plumbing shows you just how scary being a plumber really is.

The ominous zombie on top of the grocery store sign.

I like Movies Plus' rendition of Corpse Bride.

And of course, my place of employment.  DeeAnn came up with the design and I helped her put everything up.  Its a surveyor skeleton.  Cute right?  I think it is great that my little town is getting into the Halloween spirit.  Happy Halloween Everybody!!

Those are fun things. I hope nobody gets into a wreck and ends up like the fire department one when everyone is driving slow to look at them all ;)

I am thoroughly enjoying it. I like how you said "all cracks aside" on the plumbing one. I laughed out loud when I read that one. It's definitely festive and is way fun to see.

I have loved this too. Everyday when I take Bailee to school I can see them. I think our town is great, all we needed was someone to say, Hey, let's do this. I live in the best place on earth.

I would have to agree! I like how they are getting into the spirit of things and making it an enjoyable time of the year.

What a fun idea! We may have to take a slight detour through Nephi on our way to AZ. My girls would absolutely love the decor!

Nephi has come a long way. Fun stuff. We will have to come down and see it all.
