Fair 2011 Part 1

It's the most wonderful time of the year again! 
We went to the fair Friday night and just like in the past, we always take pictures before we leave. I love seeing the boys grow up on these steps!





You are growing up to fast young man!







Notice hand on his "girl".


Notice pile of girls right beside him! =)


Cutest little stinker ever!




My Food Lion mums are huge and gorgeous! I still can't get over the deal I got on them!

I will post part 2 tomorrow.
 No line breaking stories I promise! ;) 
I got my long awaited cheese on stick and no one got hurt!

Mr. Bones all dressed up

He was feeling a little naked!


He told me me he wanted some ruffles and a top hat, too!


He also told me to tell you they have caramel apples 3 for $1.29 at Aldi! 



Mr. Bones is one sharp dressed boney man!


Time to go dress up his big brother!
Happy Sunday!

Joining these parties!

A couple of crafty projects

There's a couple of crafty projects I've been putting off.
I'm so glad  completed them finally. 
Here's my creepy doll head all fixed up! I found a small one, too!


I made the top hat out of card stock and there's embellishments on the side, but the picture was to dark.
This was my first time making a top hat. I might be addicted now!
I added crepe paper for the ruffles.

I also jazzed up my little boo banner from last year.


So much better!


I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! We have to get ready for my Aunt and Uncle's surprise 25th Anniversary party tonight.

Happy Saturday!

This is and That

Thursday was the Fall Festival at school.
Food, baked goods, cake walks, games, rides, giveaways and silent auctions! 
What's not to love?!



He got the cutest candy corn cupcake! I love the way it was presented!


Fun and games!


Here's my little one with his "girls"! I don't know why he calls the rats his girls, but he does!


Poor kid is just so happy to be holding rats!
 He wants to take all of them every where we go!
I usually can get him to take just 1, but the kid puts up a fight for his girls! lol!


What do you mean I can only take 1?


Silly boy!

Well, I'm still missing my Halloween box of  inside decorations. Makes me so sad! 
I hoping it's in the attic. My fella has not had time to get up there and look.
Fingers crossed! So, In the meantime I'm decorating stuff with ribbon!


This is my paper plate holder and that's my fake candy apples in the back!
I loved the way everything turned out!


This is a black bushel style basket and I decorated the sides of the handles. I figured this would be cute to deliver treats in!

Only 19 more days till Halloween!
Are you ready?

PS! I decided to make my test blog my money saving blog! If your interested it's Saving Glitter.

I have a new friend!

This guy has been riding right beside me since Sunday!
I kinda like him there! People get a kick out of him!

(excuse my dirty windshield)


I got him at Walgreens in case you are wondering. He was only thirty dollars.
That's a pretty good deal for a 5 foot skeleton.

I'm still working on my Halloween decorations.
I've been adding ribbon to everything! Have I told you I LOVE ribbon!


Ribbon makes me happy! If I had a girl, her bows would be the size of Texas! 


Hand soap needs a little bedazzle, too!


I just loved this sign! JoAnn's has some really cute decor! Added ribbon to it, too!

I can't believe so many of you do not know who Dexter is?!!!  Dexter comes on Showtime at 9 pm on Sunday nights. He kills bad people! Sounds crazy, right?! But so good! I love trashy TV, what can I say! ;)

Have a wonderful Thursday!
 I've got to look for a box of Halloween decor I'm missing and get ready for school's fall festival tonight.

PS. My son lost another tooth yesterday. Well, he comes in the living room this morning and says, "Look mama, the tooth fairy left my tooth, too!" Oh my! My husband forgot to take the tooth! We have got to get better at this tooth fairy stuff!

What would Dexter do?

The wait is over!
Dexter the dark passenger is back!
Are you as excited as I am?

The question is, what would Dexter do?


I wonder if he would eat a cupcake?


These cupcakes took no time to make. I downloaded a picture that I liked and inserted on Word.
I cut the pictures out and glued to black construction paper. Then added a sucker stick in between the paper. Added red food color gel for the blood look. That easy!


I'm so ready for tonight!
Are you a Dexter fan?

Magical October!

My favorite time of the year is here!
October is so magical and makes me feel like a kid again.
Nothing better than pumpkins, candy, decor, hayrides, and a little scare here and there!

Finally time to break out the Halloween attire!


I'm just in love with orange, black, gingham, and converse shoes!








I'm so proud of myself!
I cleaned out the garage and my building today.
I hauled all my Halloween decorations from the building to the garage, too!
My fella put new mulch down and picked up some hay bales for me today.
Soon it will be a magical spooky place around here.

Stopped in Walmart to pick up a few things yesterday. By the way, my Walmart has almost no Halloween decor. Why is that? Anyway, I came out with this!

Whoa! Sugar coma anyone?!
This was an accident. I swear!


Anyone looking for candy corn m&m's? 
They smell AMAZING!


Tonight, me and my oldest are watching Hocus Pocus! My favorite movie of ALL times!

So, the countdown begins.......


30 more days my little pretties!
