Vacay From Blog

I'll be back in April. I'm under a little push to get a few things done so I'm taking a break. See you all soon.

Happy Halloween!

When I think Halloween I think candy. Maybe it's the joy of remembering a childhood filled with make believe costumes, running from house to house, and most of all the sugar high that I had as a kid that made Halloween my favorite part of Fall. This year I was determined that my two rug rats were going to experience the joy of Halloween. From great costumes to trick-or-treat. They would enjoy the time.

What I didn't realize was how much I chewed off. You might be asking yourself what she saying. You get a costume, a bag, and run crazy right? Yes that's what you do. Only for me a cheap store bought costume wasn't going to cut it. My son and daughter deserved quality. So off I went to the fabric store to get material for them. Boy did that start my headache.

At the store I couldn't find a single costume pattern to satisfy my kids taste or mine. So I resolved to make my own. For my son, a star wars outfit that any Jedi would love. For my daughter, a trick-or-treat fairy made of candy/halloween prints. After trial an error and many many hours my kids and I were satisfied.

Today they wore there homemade costumes at the churches Trunk-or-treat. They had a blast. Hit a huge sugar high. And overall made a memory of a great Halloween. The hours spent was so worth their joy.

Crazy Computer Will Not Defeat Me!

Well my computer has been down for almost two months! It's not that it doesn't work, but more that it won't connect to the web. Since then I've perfected my bread recipe, started experimenting with whole wheat cookies, and sewed all sorts of crazy things. As my blogs finally update you will be able to see the fun I've had. Enjoy!
