Crafty Tuesday: Birthday Time!

Clearly the world is coming to an end or something...because I actually have something to share for Crafty Tuesday!

Birthday Cards!

I will admit that they aren't that crafty, but they are handmade and they are DONE! Which, these days, is enough for me.

For the look of things that require actual craftiness, see what everyone else has to share at Carrie's!

Best Shot Monday: Four

FOUR.

Four is a lot of things, when you think about it. The number of sides in a square. The number of doors in a sedan. Four archangels. The minimum height requirement for some roller coasters. The number of time zones in the continental United States. The number of times I can answer the same question before I start to get a little testy. Four Matriarchs of Judaism. The number of cups in a quart. Four Seasons. The Fantastic Four. Four Gospels.

Four chambers in a human heart.

And I'm pretty sure every single one of my four chambers has pieces of you in it.

Happy Birthday, 4 Year Old.

And quit growing so fast.

I Love You.

Happy Halloween!

I will be the first to admit that this is just a repost from last year...that what happens when you don't get it together...but I still think the pictures are funny, so here you go!

I hope that your Halloween is filled with candy and treats, and children who enjoy their sugar induced comas...and since I have to work tonight, I hope that mine is filled with new people who make a grand entrance with enough time for their parents to stuff them into their 'first costume'...

**********

I adore holidays - that should come as no surprise. I love the decorating, the celebrating, the whole thing. I won't go so far as to say that Halloween is my favorite holiday, but I still enjoy it quite a bit.

And so I offer you a montage of Halloween - mostly from long ago. Although I do not have access to pictures from every year (because most are at my parents house several hours away), I did manage to find a few gems...

Like my very first Halloween - I was an angel. Obviously my true nature was clear, even from a young age.

Angel Maggie
You might think that I was crying because I wasn't excited about the holiday. You would be wrong - I was really crying because I was coming to the realization that my parents were incredibly dorky.
Mom and Dad in Costume - 1981
If you realized that you came from that, you would probably be crying too.
And while I am obviously always an angel, I don't always dress as one.
Sometimes I'm an artist.
Artist Maggie
Or Snow White.
Snow White Maggie

Being Snow White clearly started a trend, as I have been known to dress as a Disney Princess on more recent occasions as well.

Maggie and Natalie Maggie and Holly
And although I am sure that you are quite distressed that you have missed my full Halloween history, perhaps it will be something to look forward to next year. And I will also leave you with a shining example of why I am forced to spoil my pets the majority of the year. Because on certain occasions I can be totally cruel to them.
Pumpkin Joey
Can you tell how excited he is to be dressed as a pumpkin?
And my personal favorite - the Halloweenies!
Maggie and the Halloweenies
Happy Halloween!
