It's a Cowboy Halloween

It's fall and October has finally arrived! I've been pinning lots of pumpkin, soup and caramel recipes on Pinterest.  The weather has turned cooler here in Texas, and all  my friends on Facebook are posting pictures of how they are decorating for fall.

I have a sunroom that I decorate with vintage Halloween collectibles during the month of October.  I love old Halloween postcards, clickers, and books.  I have no problem finding vintage Halloween collectibles during all my trips to First Monday Trade Days in Canton, Texas every month!

These just put a smile on my face!
