The Haunted Garage

Last weekend, our garage was HAUNTED!  We emptied everything out and put up tarps to divide the garage into 4 different rooms.  We decorated, prepared, and scrambled like mad-men the hours before our "opening night" and we officially ran our first Haunted Garage for the neighborhood!  We had a room of touchy-feely creepiness, I was a fortune teller in the next room, the next space was a graveyard with tombstones and a coffin (Shayne's handiwork!), and lastly, a mad-scientist room with all sorts of cool decor thanks to Cherae!  We handed out the fliers only the day before and tried to spread the word in the short time we had - I was surprised how many people did come!  I'm so glad that so many enjoyed it and have been asking about it becoming an annual tradition.  We definitely see this being an annual thing - and we'll just have to make improvements every year - (I hope the first year was the craziest!).  I wish I had photos to show you everything - but they just didn't work out in the dark.  So, let your imagination run wild and make plans to attend next year's Haunted Garage!  PS A huge shout out to Cherae's family and to Brian & Devri - it would not have happened without your time and help those last few hours and during the event.  THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH!!

This is what we had in the "touchy-feely" portion...
