Halloween Overload

I've really enjoyed decorating for Halloween this year.  Plenty of pumpkins again, no snow, and a fantastic new marker to work with.  What more could you ask for?  Now for picture overload.  Enjoy, and have an awesome Halloween!
An adorable cluster of Halloweenery.
Did this last year.  Loved it.  Did it again.  A witch needs her apothecary.
Thank-you to my baby sister for growing 2 of the most adorable little gourds.  And then giving them to me!  Cuz she loves me.
Pumpkin carving in the shop = much easier clean-up.  Yeah!
A dry run of my Daughter's wolf costume.  Not bad for my first time.
That marker went a long way...
Favorite pumpkin face.  Ever.
3 dimensional cookies?  Why not?
New this year is the bat weathervane.  Love it.
Nothing says Halloween like dead flowers?
Night...
Ha Ha wind!  In your face.  No candles to blow out this year!
And here we are all lit up at night.  Maybe not quite as charming as individually lit jacks, but wants to spend the entire evening relighting candles?

The stairs.  Don't you just love rats?


Due to the forecast for too much wind on Halloween, I decided not to fight, (as much) with trying to keep candles lit.  I ran around the house, grabbing every pumpkin I could find, and scribbled away.
More scribbling...
And more....

I whipped this little guy up out of 2 by 4's, latex paint and a twig!

A Blog Event That Caught My Eye

This looked like a ton of fun, so why not? I started a blog as a way of introducing myself to those who wanted to get to know me better than what my little Etsy shop offered. I had absolutely no idea where it would go, how long it would last, or if I would get any response. As it turns out, none of that matters. I just love to do it. And I love reading the blogs of others as well. It's far better than TV. Click on the picture for all the details, and to register your blog. Here is what I'm offering up as my giveaway. A stone necklace with various findings. All findings are silver plated and it has no clasp because it measures a long 33 inches. I can not wait to see what everyone else is doing.

Snow Day!

Image
It has been a wonderful, drawn out fall.  I've enjoyed easy walks around my yard well into December, and more time outdoors than I usually get during these first two winter months. This balance between indoors and outdoors is essential to keeping me feeling good.  I hate being cooped up in the house for too long without a breath of fresh air.  It makes me tired, and I'm a grouch when I'm tired. Yesterday, Old Man Winter decided to correct his oversight in our corner of the world, and deposited between 6 and 8 inches of snow.  It looked light and fluffy, but it was actually very dense and it took a lot of work on my husband's part to tidy up the driveway. The prairie I walk in out back was so completely whited out, it seemed as though I was getting nowhere, even though I could clearly feel the muscles in my legs straining to get me through the snow.  It is actually quite dizzying to be looking at nothing but pure white and trying to move forward.  I had ...
