A nice new home. Very plain, very neat, very safe... or is it?

Just a normal flower bed, the most evil of things are the weeds but somewhere underneath lie something. Everything changes at night - EVERYTHING.


This is some of what I did to our house at Halloween. I truly had the best time and could have used 2 more days as I still had A LOT more decorations. We had many people and kids who enjoyed the house and we picked our victims..um... kids that we thought were okay to scare. As they ran away screaming, we could also hear them laughing. Erin had a blast standing near the door, very still, very quiet, watching and waiting. We had many a child who was almost too afraid to even walk up to the house. However, the good parents said, if you want to continue trick-or-treating, you WILL go up to that house. So very slowly, they would look in as many directions as fast as their head would allow and head to the door. Then happily they would run down the driveway saying how "COOOLL" everything was. Basically, that made my heart sing. I had some of the best comments and I enjoyed every one of them.

Hope you enjoy the pics as much as I do. I can't look at them enough. Throughout the month we had many parties to attend, all of which, I made Halloween themed food. These are just a few of the things I made.

My living room

I needed to organize and here what's happened... my tubs threw up on everything.

No piece of floor was safe.

Zoey even got a little decorated :)

There's only a few bugs on the counter, take what you like. There are plenty more in the walls and the cupboards.

Need a shower?

Smite Brothers - just some rambunctious boys...

A witches' cupboard

Keeper of the Bathroom

The Infamous Mummy Calzones - In total I made 11 of these throughout the month!

Would you like some punch? What's that you say? Oh that, that's just some eyeballs, fingers, ears and tongues.

Kitty Cake

Ants and their Ant Hill

Mmm, boo bugs.

Oh no...

That WOMAN decided to tell her husband about her surprise and he said no. So now, I held little Miss Sara Bee and she once again, has no home. I feel so sorry for this poor little dog. She just wants to be loved. Thankfully, my aunt and uncle offered to take her for a few days to give me a break. On to find her a new home...

This is my friend Sara, my latest rescue. Sara was found by my boss and when he couldn't keep her anymore, guess who said, "bring her home." Erin, no really she did. So after much searching and crying by some stroke of luck, she is getting a home. A friend of my uncles' is going to take her. YAY for Sara! She really is a sweet dog and I would like to keep her but her and Howie don't get a long :(

Really, we don't need her but we didn't need Howie either and now he is my baby boy :) She will have a new friend and will be greatly missed but it's time for her to have consistancy and I hope she's happy. I'll miss you Sara-bee...

Look closely at the package. Just below the words Fresco Lavado....
Dont forget this brand of fresh lettuce, folks. What probably happened is, the water the lettuce was washed in contained polliwogs and these became fresh new frogs, right in the packages. So if you're looking for salad fixins with a little more body, then be sure and try this brand.

This was in my inbox and I just HAD to share, it was so "ribbiting." <- cracked myself up with that one! LOL

This is my new dining room lighting fixture.

Damn, I love Halloween...
