Tomorrow is Halloween

Do you believe it? Halloween is tomorrow. Can you remember your days as a child? Trick or treating? I can! I can remember going from door to door, trick or treating and then going home to check out all the goodies. Oh what fun it was. Now it's my grandchildren doing the trick or treating and I am taking pictures. lol. We always made our own costumes, dressing up in old or baggy clothes, now I don't remember the last time I have seen a costume that is not store bought. I don't think they even made costumes for Halloween back then. Oh well, I am ready for the little trick or treater's to ring my bell. I have a bag full of candy which I know is way too much candy for the traffic I get here. My youngest daughter (she is 18 now) will be dressing up. She is going to go to the Halloween parade in the village. So for your treat today I have 2 new layouts to show. lol. They are Christmas layouts from years gone by. One layout has pictures from almost 37 years ago.... Wow!!! The kit I used is Christmas Story 1 by Sweet Made. I really like all the different elements in this kit and as you can see in my second layout, I really had fun with them. Thanks for stopping by.

Cold!!

Oh yeah, baby it's cold outside. Well not exactly freezing winter cold but it's really cold for mid October. We had back to back nor'easters and it was snowing in parts of New York. Oh, it's really too early for this. Today it was around 46 but with the wind chill it felt like it was in the 30's and the weatherman is predicting the first frost of the season tonight. Brrr.... For my two new layouts I used the holloween pictures I had taken last year. I really loved my youngest granddaughters costume. The kit I used is Spooky Boo by Lara's Digi World. Thanks for stopping by.

Dreary Saturday

It's a dreary Saturday here in New York today. It's very cloudy but not too cold. It's about 65 right now but it is supposed to go up to 70. I am not complaining, my favorite times of the year is spring and fall. I like the nice cool weather. I enjoy opening my windows and letting the nice fresh air in. It used to be that summertime was my favorite time of the year. But now that I have gotten older, I can't stand the heat. So for this dreary Saturday I have two new layouts that brighten my day. These are recent pictures of my two sunshine girls. I use The October Mega 09: Oktoberfest kit by the SAS-y design team. Thanks for stopping by.

I can't wait for Monday morning

I know that sounds so weird, who can't wait for Monday. Well, Saturday night I woke up at 5:30 in the morning with an excruciating tooth ache. I didn't know what to do with myself. It was throbbing and it felt like I was hit with a bat right beside my ear. Actually my tooth started bothering me on Friday. But my dentist is closed on Friday. The pain was bearable so I figured I could make it until Monday. Anyway, I was finally able to fall back asleep and when I woke it was sore but with the help of advil I have been able to stand it. Kelly didn't come home this weekend as she said she had tons of homework. But then today she called to tell me she was sick to her stomach and that she woke in the middle of the night to throw up in her dorm room. So it was a bad weekend for both of us. But I will get up tomorrow morning and call the dentist first thing and hope that he will be able to see me. I have 2 new layouts to show today. I really like the way the one with my grandkids turned out. The kit I used is Autumn Celebration by Scrapbrat. Thanks for stopping by.

September is gone

Wow! Can you believe it? September is gone and another birthday has passed. Time is flying and it will soon be Halloween, Thanksgiving and then Christmas. I better hurry and get out those Christmas cards. I am always sending them out the last minute. Yep, its time to start thinking about Christmas shopping. Who is in charge of time anyway? I want to know so I can tell them to slow down a bit. It is going way too fast for my liking. Before you know it, I will be old. Oh, I am old... lol. But I don't want to get too old kwim? lol. Anyway, I have a cute layout of my cutie patooies. The kit I used is Spaced Out by Sweet Made. Thanks for stopping by.
