What really matters on Valentine’s Day are the cards from my family of course! Dude did a good job and got me a very nice necklace… okay, I got myself a nice necklace and put his name on it. Whatever right?! Happily I don’t need him to prove anything and it is a good excuse to justify a new $15 purchase. Gotta love those Hallmark holidays!

Yesterday the kids got to dress up for Halloween parties at school. Dude was a great Dad and drove them to school in his costume! What a guy… Then last night we had a spooky Halloween party for the girls and today I feel like Halloween should be done, but of course it isn’t. There is still trick-or-treating on Saturday. Oh joy, lots of tempting candy to thwart my exercise efforts… sigh… Oh well, time to boost up my self-control I guess!

Got the tree up! Here is another ornament that I made when I was a kid…

We had an awesome day of thanks! I hope that you did too…

Here is a shot of an ornament I made as a kid… we still are using our silver tree which I love! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…

It has been a busy day and we don’t even have our treats yet!

Everyone made it up late this year and we had a great time watching and shooting off a few fireworks!
