Wordless Wednesday: Halloween 2010

It's November already!

I can't believe yesterday was the first of November!! This year has flown by! The mister and I watched some videos of Little Man the other night from when he was just a few months old, and it is absolutely SHOCKING how much he has really changed. (This is probably my hundredth post saying that...but I can't help it!)  Around this time last year, Little Man started losing all of his hair because of an awful bout with infected cradle cap...and now we can't stop it from growing! And it's beautiful!  He also had awful eczema all over from head to toe.  His face was covered!  And now...flawless!  

Last Halloween (2009)

Yesterday-Halloween (2010)

I seriously love him more and more and more each day.  I don't want him to grow up!  He is probably going to start walking in the next month, and I will definitely cry when that milestone happens...he will be a toddler!  AH!

Hanging out with Cousin Seth

Anyway, I have lots of goals for this month.  I have been inspired by many bloggers and friends to really get back on track with my business and daily crafting. 

I want to make lots of signs for my etsy shop for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I will be at a craft fair the weekend before Thanksgiving, and I need lots and lots of pieces to show and sell! 

Also, many of you started gratitude or Thanksgiving trees!  I found a really cute turkey that I hope to make soon.  You use styrofoam balls and yarn to make the turkey.  Then you use construction paper and popsicle sticks to make the feathers.  I am going to make the turkey and lay out lots and lots of feathers around it.  Each day, the mister and I (and whoever we have to visit) will write one thing they are thankful for on a feather and stick it in the turkey!  So excited about it.  The first chance I'll have to go shopping is tomorrow...so I hope to have it ready by Thursday!

I hope you have a great start to your November! Happy Tuesday!

Another book review...

Yes, I have had a lot of time on my hands lately to sit around and read!  In keeping with the Halloween spirit, I decided to read a scary book that Kindle was offering for $2.99.  

The Book:  Shaken

Author: J.A. Konrath

THIS BOOK WAS SCARY!  It was a very quick read and I could hardly put it down.  You really need to read it when you can read it in a short amount of time because of the sequence of events.  He writes the chapters out of order, but I really liked reading it that way! (On Kindle you have the option to read it chronologically). (Also, there are a bunch of books that came before this one...but I didn't read those and this one was still great!)

Anyway, I was very excited about how interested I really got in this book.  The characters are easy to get to know, and the scenes are so descriptive.  I again don't want to give away any of the details, but it is about a serial killer and the people trying to catch him!  I hope they make it into a scary movie one day!  He has a new one that follows this one called "Stirred," but it's not coming out until next year! I can't wait to read it already!

Hope you have had a Happy Halloween!! Let me know what you did!

I dressed up as Pocahontas and Little Man was a monkey!  We had fun passing out candy.  I will post pics as soon as I find my camera cord...I don't know where it is!
