Multi tasking at its best

This scene just cracked me up. Some of you may feel bad for this cat, seeing how Maycee has her in a partial death grip/chest lock while she is vacuuming the rug. I don't feel too bad for Shady, she could get out of it if she wanted too....maybe.

Our Long Drawn out Halloween

Maycee was a Barbie princess this year, after digging through our dress ups and finding one that she was happy with..

Abby decided on Tinkerbell this year and I had so much fun helping her and her classmates make pumpkin necklaces. Being in the Kindergarten room makes me so happy!

The edible eyeballs I made for Britton's Fall Party...

Brittons teacher took this pic of B dog and I at his pumpkin carving party. Britton initially was going to be a football player, but then wanted to be a clown. By the time I got there, most of the costume (and make up) had disappeared!

Who really only celebrates Halloween on the actual day?? Apparently not this family. By the 31st, we were DONE dressing up!!! We had a great time prior to that day, as celebrations at the work place and at the school called for great costumes and lots of yummy treats!
