Love the time change!

I have been in the best mood today because I had a great weekend and I LOVE the time change! So I finally turned my pics in so I should update by the end of the week....hopefully.

This weekend was so great. Me and Hubby went to Gadsden to eat at Red Lobster and then we just walked around the mall (which by the way is very shady....I do not remember it being that bad) but it was relaxing and nice! Then Saturday I was able to find a brown and black pair of boots while we were out shopping and I also was able to get my friend's baby shower gift basket together. I got home and we put my Halloween decorations up....finally! That made me happy! That is what I absolutely love about my husband, he was right in the middle of everything decorating :-) He knows how giddy I get when it comes to things like this! Then we got our pumpkins out and got to work.

Here is Nick getting in the "mood"


And football was on of course....



I wanted to go with the "Scream" theme and finally Nick had to draw it for me because well apparently I can't even do that.....you should have seen my markings...it was funny. Anyway, Brooke I totally thought of you as I was emptying my pumpkin :-)


Does our house look scary enough?



So we got those set outside and we went to the store for a few items. Got back and grilled steaks (which I bought from a guy on the side of the road lol thats funny) best steak I have ever ate!!!!! It was soooo good. My mother got some too and she told me the same thing but they really were good. Then came the trick or treaters....we got a total of ......8! lol Nick was just dumping candy in kid's bags lol. April and Tyler brought little Kaden and he was a doctor. On his outfit said "Dr. Q.T. Patootie" how precious is that! Well he saw my apples and started crying for it saying "Apple, apple" and April told him no! I said Nick you get that boy an apple! So by george we got him one :-) (all my friends probably hate me)

Then we had this one taller trick or treater come and I looked through the door and said "Ok that is scary" because He/She was totally covered in black with a gold mask on. So Nick was the one who answered the door and he put a handful in as usual and I hear him go, "Well we have to save some for the rest of the trick or treaters." This trick or treater just kept shaking its bag like it wanted more candy so Nick was dropping in one piece at a time and what he was wanting was the person to speak so he could figure out who it was. I turned around and thought Kids! They have no manners now a days! But something just wasn't right....and then a woman started giggling and I know that giggle ANYWHERE! MY MOTHER! hahahahaha Oh I was laughing so hard. I love it that she still knows how to have a good time.

Here she is....scary right?



My dad had pulled in w/o us seeing so he came running up after he heard her laughing. It was so funny. They decided to stop their dinner....yes you heard me right, they had not even finished their dinner because they knew we were at home giving out candy and wanted to put their $8.00 walmart outfit to good use :-) That made for good memories!

Then after they left to go finish their dinner! Nick and I went to buy a scary movie. Neither one of us are much for them, the language is normally foreign because there is so much cursing but anyway we wanted to look for something just because it was Halloween and there was only football and baseball on (FYI I had already watched 2 games prior to trick or treaters). So we bought The Grudge and popped some popcorn. It was ok...not really scary more freaky than anything but it was still fun.

I cannot believe it is November, 2009! November and December always fly by. I have to travel on 2 different occasions for work this month and then we have Thanksgiving so there goes November! We already have our Christmas parties starting to line up and that excites me :-)

Pictures to come :-)

Matthew 16:26
"For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Food for thought....don't worry so much about the material things and appreciate the small things. Look around you and see what all God has provided...simple pleasures. We get so wrapped up in the best clothes, the best shoes, the best that money can buy...but we can't take any of it with us. Make sure your heart is right with God!
