Wednesdays With My Mom

Darling outfit, darling hat.

Dad with the first three kiddos. Steve and I were still up in Heaven, waiting to make our appearance. : )
Nothing to "write home about" on this day last week. We just hung out and watched several episodes from this DVD of the first season of Green Acres I had found recently for $3.99. Sara even joined us for part of it and got a kick out of it. Funny stuff. : )
At one point last Wednesday, my mom said, "I wish I had a notebook of some sort to keep notes in." The funny thing is, that I had just picked this up (below) at a book store recently because it was so cute. I ran and got it and gave it to her. She was SO happy. Her reaction made me smile. : )


You know how you never forget how your mother's hands look? There's just something about it, they're imprinted in your mind and heart all your life.
As promised, I dug up some old photos of Sara in the Dorothy costume I made when she was little.



Happy Haunting. : )

Spooky Fun Around the House

Our weekend was fun!!! As you can see, we got busy and started on the outside too. I bought the rope web and Skeleton in the window after Halloween last year on clearance. So glad I did!



I got the idea for my new Header from another blogger, Jamie, last year. Her cute Site is called 'Right at Home' and you can find her inspiration post here. Thank you for the great idea, Jamie!
I added to my Lori Mitchell collection of trick-or-treaters over the past year. I LOVE her art!!!
I just had to buy this Dorothy because I made Sara the costume one year. I'll dig that up later and post it. Talk about adorable!!! I think she was about 10.







These 'Beware' and 'Spooky' flags are from the shopping trip Sara and I made the other day. What a fun addition. : )

This adorable witch below, I ordered from the Bethany Lowe Company. Gotta love her! She's just plain weird...no wonder I love her.



Yippee!!! Time for bed! Happy decorating. : )

Come with me and Sara to the "BOO"-tique : )

Sara and I both needed some "down time" this afternoon, so we took off for one of our "happy places". We weren't disappointed!!
I absolutely LOVE it when you girls take lots of pics when visiting a favorite store or craft fair and such, so I thought I would return the favor. The store clerks were so gracious about us taking pictures, which I really appreciated. So enjoy!!!

SILLY SARA!
These glasses were hilarious!
Sara stole my camera from me for a few minutes to take all these Disney pictures.
So Fun!!!

And if you've seen Sara's room, you know she's crazy about Damask. : )
Next stop, a Scrapbook store that had this pumpkin on the counter. All I can say is WOW!!

Okay, onto the pendant/necklaces. These were SO FUN to make.



This one below cracks me up. I told Sara that I was going to put "Halloween costume" on the back and she suggested I make it "This is my Halloween costume". Smart girl. : )

These are sitting over in my Shop for $10.00 each if you would like one. Thanks for coming by today.
