Mommy, Why are they putting up Christmas stuff up already?

I wish you could hear how this question is asked (every time we are at a craft store)Maybe you have little of your own asking this questions. Miss B asks it with a tone of "those silly gooses, dont they know it's HallowING?" And T-bone asks it like "What's wrong with the world today?!"

My answer is something like "They need to get ready early so they can get everything done by Christmas."

Well I have officially joined "they" when I drove all over town looking for some neat-o paper and spent the afternoon cutting taping, and stapling, I am almost done assembling my Ali Edward's December daily album!!! Here's a little sneaky peek:

And a little freebie if you want it. I made a sheet of my own number tags. I didn't use all of them for my album and there is no "25." Click on the images to go to the larger jpg to download, However, they are not for commercial use:

Because We Rock Halloween

Isn't my hubs hot?! Ok, dont answer that ;) Knowing how to paint makes it so easy to do cool make-up at Halloween! I'm thinking about buying a bunch of make up after halloween (on clearance) just so I can play around whenever I feel like it.

C went as the Corpse Bride to our Trunk or Treat. I really wish I would have gotten a pic of the hole in the side of her cheek! It was creepy!

Want Some Candy?

We just HAD to make a Halloween Lolliprop! My kiddos are way into these (they want one in Kansas City Chief's colors and are even making up their own color combos that really dont follow any logic except theirs.)Need the details on geting your own fake Lolliprop?
