A Pirate and Super Girl!

I took the girls to a small Trunk or Treat up at the High School tonight. The high schoolers put it on and they did a great job! The girls were particularly excited about the fact that they will be going there one day.

We are taking them to another trunk or treat Friday too! Lots of Halloween activities this year.

Denver Downs and Pumpkin Carving

We had a WONDERFUL day yesterday. The other day at work, a couple of co-workers told me about this farm that is packed FULL of fun. On a last minute decision, we decided to go. It is $8 to get in and totally worth it! There are 3 maizes, a hay ride, climbing goat feedings, duck races, rope swinging (into a HUGE pile of hay), corn cannon, jump house, football throwing, food and drinks! Here are a few pics of our day there....





















After Denver Downs, we headed back home for dinner, a game of Clue and Pumpkin Carving! The girls loved tearing the insides out! I saved the seeds and tried toasting them....they turned out OK.


This week I think we will hit a couple Trunk or Treats! Kaitlin is going to be a pirate and Brittany is going to be Super Girl! We LOVE Halloween at our house!

Adding a few more to my collection..




..of hair bows. I went to Hobby Lobby and they were having a 50% off sale on ribbon! What better time to get started on making hair bows than when your main item is half off?!?! I still have a lot to learn. It was very frustrating for me and very tedious.




Monday is Robbie and my 7th anniversary. We are celebrating tonight with dinner and not sure what else yet. We are going to try out a new Bistro that opened up right down the road from us. I cant believe that it has been 7 years already but it really does feel a whole lot longer than that. We have been through soooo much together!




Well, look for more hair bows soon and as SOON as I make the "perfect" one it will be up for RAKing!




Thanks for stopping by!

A new obsession (RAK coming soon!)

I have been REALLY wanting to try my hand at making hair bows. Since Halloween is coming AND it is my FAVORITE holiday, I decided now is the best time. I am actually pretty happy with my FIRST one! It was made with a couple cheap ribbons from Walmart. I am in the process right now of making one with Cloud 9 ribbon from the Happy Halloween Quintet. If I am happy with the results........there may be a RAK involved if you like them!


Well, here is it.......
