Halloween is for kids...

That may be true and if it is, I felt like one this weekend. I invite the kids over for an annual Halloween party at my place. I decorated the entire house like it was haunted. Spiderwebs hanging from the chairs and ceiling, even jelly-like spiders on them. I covered the table in candy and set each kid's place setting with a pumpkin, spiders, glow stick and mini ghost candies. I took white candles and drippend bright red candle wax over them to look like blood.

It was so cool. We all went outside and played glow tag, we watched Ichabod Craine, painted pumpkins, ate pizza, and made Halloween cupcakes.

I felt like I was seven again, it was a blast. Remember those days when the only thing you worried about was if you got the same amount of candy as your bother?

I'm not so motivated lately...

I've been lazy lately. I have the best of intensions but I can't seem to make them work. I wanna get on an exercise routine but I would rather lay on the couch watching Ellen or re-runs of The Golden Girls. What is the matter with me? Do you ever feel that way? I've got a treadmill and exercise bike downstairsn but I just don't wanna do it. I'm gonna push myself into it today and see what happens...I think...

This weekend...

Was GORGEOUS!

Went shopping for Halloween decor and to all the cool "Primitives" shops in the Standish area. My friends and I love shopping at those little places where you can get old style home decorations and FREE hot cider. I love the old fashioned looking things and the yummy smelling candles they sell. I even found the LAST "Fresh Mint" Yankee Candle. They recently discontinued it which made me cry :(
