Where is my Mojo??

Ok, so I have like 8 billion christmas projects that need to be done, and what am I doing?  Trying to find the mojo to work on them.  I have crochet itmes that I am trying to make for the entire family, and still have decorations to make!  I have not completely finished ONE project yet!!  This is driving me crazy!  Perhaps I have bitten off a little more than I can chew??  Maybe not, maybe I am just having a day where I don't want to do much.  Oh well, I have to MAKE myself do some work on this stuff.  I am aiming to have my sister's scarf done by this evening, not sure if I can because of the stitch that I am using on it, but we will see.  Will update and post pic when done!!

Ghouls, and Goblins and Ghosts....OH MY!

Well, Halloween proved again to be my favorite day of the year! We had a busy but productive day. The day started by everyone pitching in and cleaning the house, then followed by a day of baking cookies, a ghost cake, making a center piece of rainbow twizzlers and pretzels dipped in white chocolate with black sugar crystals and orange pumpkin candies sprinkled on top. Oh yeah, forgot to mention I made Halloween bark out of the leftover chocolate and candies/sprinkles!




My mom came over for dinner and I had made spaghetti with "oozing eyeballs".

Immediately after dinner, we got the kiddos in their costumes and did their makeup for trick or treating. Shelby was Tinkerbell,

and Logan and Emma decided that they were going to be vampires......



ahhhhh, life is good. My favorite things in the world, and MY kids decided to dress up as them :D.


Mom accompanied us trick or treating the ENTIRE neighborhood. This year was a little disappointing as far as the number of trick or treaters in our neighborhood. There really were NOT a lot of people out.....but, we made out!!! Not to mention we found this house where they had a pumpkin carving contest, and out of all of the elaborate carvings, this was my favorite......

It was done by a boy just about Logan's age, and had blinking Christmas lights inside, it was the cutest, coolest pumpkin EVER!!!!

This particular house had also saved milk jugs and cut off the handles leaving an open wedge in the carton....they had painted them black or white with words and pictures left unpainted....stuck some moss in the bottom of the jug and lit candles in them.....TOO CUTE and wayyyyyyy cost effective!!!  Smarty farties in the neighborhood only give me good ideas for next year.....LOL!

And the best part of the night???????? FULL MOON!!!!! HOW AWESOME IS THAT??????

Anywho......hope you all had a WONDERFUL and SPOOKY Halloween!!!!
