Happy Halloween

Hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween.  Just a few pictures of the kids.

This is the group of kids that went together.  They are a great bunch of kids.  So happy Madison has such great friends.  Carli got to do her Halloween party with her youth group last night.  But she didn't want those pictures posted.  So....I just did the one from tonight!  Doesn't she look Happy?  well she had her ipod and music so she made it through!

Pumpkin Carving

We did a little pumpkin carving today!  Madison loves it!  Carli not so much.  She doesn't like to get her hands dirty!  But I think they both had fun.  

 Dad helping Carli.  Momma tried but I had a hard time maneuvering the blade with my bad arm.  There are just some things I can't do.   But...that meant I got to be the photographer.

Madison loved doing the pumpkin thing.  She loves getting her hands right in there!  

Two of the three final products!

And the final product!  Yep...three out on the porch!  It was a fun night!

First pair of socks

Here is the start of my first socks.  It took me several tries before getting it started. I had to tear this thing out I don't know how many times.  Boy was I frustrated!  Now...I am on a roll!  Now I am almost done with the cuff of my first sock. I have 5 inches done and 1 one to go.  Then I can start on the heel or whatever else I have to do. I say that because I don't know what exactly I will be doing next.  thankfully I have a friend who is helping me along the way. So when I am done with this then we will get together and she will show me what to do. If I am not mistaken I believe she said the heel flap will be next!    Wish me luck!

My Friend...

I cannot believe it has been almost a month since I have posted.  Life has just been busy.  The girls in school, birthdays, work, you know all that stuff.  I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their fall weather.

I haven't been working much on my paper crafts lately.  I have a bit, but not as much as I should be.  I am behind on scrapbooking and card making!  but...I am enjoying life.   I do have a card that I have created in my down time.

I did a search of this stamp set in google and found lots of inspiration.  So I adapted several different ideas in one!
Will update with my supplies later.

Thanks for stopping by and hope everyone has a great day!
