We survived Halloween!

How was your Halloween weekend?
Busy?
Was the weather good or nasty?
We expected rain but ended up havng a perfect night
for Trick or Treating.
Typically we visit the pumpkin patch a few weeks before Halloween
but this year we waited until the last minute
We were still able to find some good pumpkins,
(and they were super cheap to boot!)
I even let the kids gut their own pumpkins.
It was quite entertaining...




Mike carved our baseball team logo into one:

Mia wanted a spider



Here are the kids in their costumes,
ready to go get some candy!

Here they are with some old witch:
All in all it was a very fun night, and I was thrilled that
there was no school the next morning.
New rule:
Halloween should be on a Saturday night from now on!




I have been scrapping a little bit
Here's a layout I did with the new Nutmeg line from Cosmo Cricket
The leaves are Prima, I altered their shapes by cutting them
They were white to begin with so I used glimmer mist to color them

Here's a fun layout I did about my blog!
A fast but sweet one that I used Basic Grey's Indian Summer on:
And lastly one with Roman
(in all his naked glory)
I used the Fancy Pants Rough & Tough papers
for this plus several Cosmo Cricket rub ons
Thanks for stopping by
Your comments bring a huge smile to my face!

    I love your layout about your blog. I have to do that. Maybe as soon as I decide I like what I did to my blog!! I can't get it just right. And today when I linked it from work it looks totally different than when I look at home. Oh well!! Just happy I'm learning little by little!!

    Loved your pics from Halloween. I certainly miss those days. I spent the night at the bar at a nice restaurant watching college football...not even aware of the ghosts and goblins that were lurking about. How sad is that??? LOL!

    Want you to know there is an award for you on my blog! xoxo L
