Halloween Overload!

I think I might have a serious problem......Halloween has started to take over our house. It's quickly becoming my favorite holiday to decorate for. I'm so glad I married a guy that loves it as much as I do.

Sorry, blogger won't let me rotate some of the pictures, I hope you don't get a kink in your neck. I just found this shutter at the D.I. for 50cents.


Again, sorry for the lop-sided picture. My pumpkin on my table is actually one of my favorites, but I can't remember where I got it! The tea-light candle holders are new this year courtesy of my inlaws! Who can resist Mickey?!
I love Tai-Pan, I thought these would work for my sugar and flour!

I totally ripped this idea off from Rebecca's blog! It so pays to have Suzy as your friend, she will sew anything for you if you give her a diet coke!!



This is Pirate Pete, Caden named him. This old trunk is so fun to decorate with!




My sofa table in my family room.....




fireplace, I'm not sure if I'm done with it. It seems to be missing something. Any ideas???






Thanks for putting up with the tour. The scary part is I have 2 more rubbermaids to unload, and I didn't even show you the pictures of my Halloween Kitchen! Oh and Brian will probably start on the outside tomorrow. Just for Lizzie......I know how much she likes our Hallo Wallos!

Tales From The Babysitter Of A Mini Cha-hooy-hooy!


Ok so we have been baby sitting the inlaws dog since Saturday. I say "baby" sitting cuz this dog doesn't know he's a dog. The picture to the left is not really him, but I can't get my camera to post pictures so I stole this one off the web. It's pretty close tho. "Moose" is my F.I.L.'s dog. Yes, you read it right. His name is Moose. He thinks he is all that. He WILL NOT do anything Brian and I would like him to do while we are watching him. He just sulks around cuz his daddy is gone to disneyland! I've been taking him back down to his house during the day because he will not stop shaking when he is at mine. The kids drive him crazy......do you think I could give him some of my generic prozac?! What kinda damage would it do to a 4 pound dog from heck.


So I'm down at Moose's house today in the backyard letting him do his bizanus and here come a cat prancing thru the neighbors yard. Moose, being the studly he is thinks he can go kick some trash and starts chasing the cat through the fence! Well the cat stops and takes a swipe at him through the fence ( he's OK Warren, just an ego bruised!)


I swear if this dog doesn't loose the "tude" something like this is gonna happen!!!





Overheard @ The Warehouse!

"I can't get these d*** things on!" "The shoes are being little S**** today!"

Guess who needs to stop swearing at our house?

HINT: It's not the 3 year old

Like Nailing Jello To The Wall!!!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been super busy and my darn camera will not load the pictures I want to post to my blog. Hopefully later I can post some fun pics of my thrift store finds.

Anyway......Am I the only one who hates Monday's??? It feels like all I do is dig out from the weekend and yell @ my kids! I swear I must repeat myself like 20 times in a 3 minute period!!! I'll leave you with this little ditty.....you've probably all seen it, but this is what I feel like today!!
