~still here....~

It's been a busy month and I have some fun

projects to share....if only I could find the time.

Halloween has come and gone-did you dress up?

My husband and I went to a Halloween party.

The theme was dead celebrities.

Here's my costume: 

 Amy Winehouse...the cigarette is a prop....

but it is real. I was terribly afraid that I would

be tempted to start smoking again by the 

end of the evening. I didn't smoke it but it sure

was fun holding it all evening and posing with it.

It turns out, the accomplishment of 13 years being

smoke free is a greater feeling than the urge

and desire to smoke the cigarette was. 

woot woot!

I did make my son's costume.

He was Kick-Buttowski..suburban daredevil.

       His costume on Halloween night had a big 

collar on it like this but I forgot to attach it

when I took these pics.     

  The costume was simple to make and he loved it.

Only problem is, he tries to actually BE

a daredevil when he wears it. Right after I snapped

this picture he and his bike fell of the rock

and skinned his leg. In real life my kid has a face....

but you'll never see it on here.  

Now we begin the busy season of birthdays,

family, Thanksgiving, Christmas and a 

MILLION projects to be finished before it 

all comes and goes. My current project,

a quiet book for my daughter's 2nd birthday.

Less than three weeks away.....

and I haven't started it yet. 

I foresee some very late nights in the near future.
