Halloween Candy

My Halloween candy dishes are ready to house some goodies.  I would have already had some in them but when I do that, I tend to grab a handful every time I walk by them.  Please tell me I'm not the only one {other than my hubby} that does this.  lol

Hmmmm...What kind of candy should I buy?

Perhaps some traditional Halloween candy such as.....

Happy Fall Y'all

I love Autumn!   The colors of crimson, orange, gold are a spectacular show!  The cool crisp mornings and evenings are a welcome after a sweltering heat of summer!  Sitting on our screened-in porch is a welcomed treat!

October brings about many birthdays of loved ones...my hubby, my grandbaby, my BIL...and me!  {actually today is my birthday}  I love to celebrate with those I love!

Halloween has always been fun to me!  The little trick*or*treaters at my door always puts a big smile on my face!  It takes me back to when my boys were little, and the fun we always had on Halloween night!  A church party where we played games...especially the "Mummy Wrap" where one person wraps their partner with toilet paper...first one finished wins...Me being the mummy and hearing my sweet hubby laughing at me...as I was quite a sight being 8 months pregnant!  I even remember far back to my childhood and the costumes I had...sitting with my loot spread out before me, while my mother checked it for me to eat.  What fun!

Decorating my porch is something I enjoy doing at Halloween. 

My witch is an especially "fun" touch to the scene! 

The slighest noise arouses her, and she begans screeching and cackling while she moves around in a circle...her eyes shooting bright blue rays!  

I wish you all a blessed autumn this year!  Today begans my second week of Fall Break, so I will have more posts to share with you this week!

Time Flies When You're Having Fun!

Hello all. I canNOT believe how much time has gone by! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that it was the end of October since I had posted. And now we are almost to the end of November! Sheesh! You have been waiting quite a while to see what I was going to do with the items I posted. So, I shall not keep you waiting any longer!!

Our church did a Trunk-Or-Treat on Halloween. It was sooooo much fun! Each Sunday School or Bible Study group chose a theme...Our's was Medieval Times. Our backdrop was a huge castle! We even had a dragon! Lots of knights, princesses, and even a traveling minstrel made this a hit! Just take a look...

Princess Rebecca

I'm so in love with that traveling minstrel!

That minstrel is so silly!

Oooooh, what a scary dragon!

The princesses

Our group minus me...I had gone back to the car to get something.

Slaying the dragon

Ahhhh, the minstrel singing me a love song as we watch the moonlight.

*giggle*

It was SOOOOO MUCH fun!!

All of the neighborhood kids loved it! There were games, food, prizes, and loads of fun!

Hope you had a fun and safe Halloween!

On November 23, we celebrated our youngest son's birthday...the BIG 22.

Oh, how my baby has grown up! He is such an awesome, caring, talented young man!

We love you Blake!

And today is my parents' anniversary.

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad

{aka Nanny and Grandad}!

We love you!

Have a blessed day everyone!

Fall Break Part 2

Well, I am nearing the end of week 2 of my Fall Break. Monday morning, it will be back to work I go! I always enjoy going back and hearing what my students did over break, but it sure is hard to get back on that schedule. Here are some things that I did this week...

Visited with my sister and my great-niece. I had some presents for my great niece's birthday.

{Sorry, these next few pics are blurry. My camera was acting funky that day!}

She's soooooo beautiful!

She LOVES monkeys, and particularly Bobby Jack!

I love you Giovanna!

Added some Halloween decorations...

Do your candy dishes look like mine?

Empty?

I can't resist getting a handful of candy corn EVERY time I go by them. I'm worse than the kids! HeeHee

A face only a mother could love! HeeHee

This witch is AWESOME! With the flick of a

switch, her eyes start shooting blue beams, her body starts to shake all over, and she begins this ear-piercing screaming!

OMGosh! Maggie does NOT like this witch! She wishes she would go back where she came from...and she tells her that every time someone gets her going!!

~Been baking goodies~

Celebrated my birthday with hubby and our sons, and one son's girlfriend. We went to my favorite, CRACKER BARREL!

Yum-OOOO!

Hubby and me at dinner

Had this for dessert...

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE FUDGE COCA~COLA CAKE.....TDF!!!

Love these plates in their country store!

Snapped random pictures to share...

Hope you are enjoying this autumn so far!
