Ketchup...

Wow, it's been a while. Lots of stuff going on and unfortunately blogging took a backseat to all the action. So here's some of what's been going on in my little world:

Here's a couple of our besties dressed for halloween. No, he's not Jesus, Brenan says he's Zeus. Doesn't Sam make a lovely Grecian goddess? Her hair was gorgeous! The dogs, who normally think it's Christmas, Thanksgiving and 4th of July when Brenan comes over, were absolutely terrified of the wig and beard!

Here's my house! Hubby's been working so diligently on the siding. I think it's absolutely beautiful! It looks like I live in a new house. We estimate that the aluminum siding was put on sometime in the 70's. Our house was built around 1940, so this is a much needed facelift. These pictures hubby took last week, the drive side complete:

The front, in progress:

The other side prior to taking down the old siding and shutters:

My Grecian goddess Sam and I took a pilgramige to our local Michael's store today. I haven't been there in AGES! It's about 40 minutes away but I hate to make needless trips with gas prices being what they are. So, I had a few other reasons to make the trip so off we went! EVERYTHING was on sale of course! I loaded my truck up with fun supplies and spent surprisingly little. Their fall stuff was already marked down 70%!!! Remember I showed you all those balls I got from ebay a couple weeks ago? They're shaping up awfully cute don't you think?

Hope everyone has a fabulous week!
