Slight dilemma

Editor's Note
No Minimal hair was lost, in the pictured event.

Day Off

“How can there be so much difference between a day off and an off day?”

Rejoice.  A day off.

It was even cold and rainy outside this morning- perfect lounging weather.

Our Wednesday morning wrapped up with a marathon of artwork creations.
The drawing is of LDC and Grandpa on the tractor. The pink lines are leaves falling.
Our afternoon wrapped up with LDC's friends coming over for a hot cocoa bar and Fall leaf rubbings.

"May the Warm Winds of Heaven
Blow softly upon your house.

May your Mocassins
Make happy tracks
in many snows,

and may the Rainbow
Always touch your shoulder. "

Looking Back + Tink it is


My Halloween costume ideas were a hard sell this year.
I gave LDC lots of options that "would be really cute and fun".
My personal top picks included Pocahontas and Mac-n-Cheese.
LDC replied with lots of... "No", "No thanks", "Mommy, that is weird"...

Finally a compromise was made.
Tinkerbell.

This year: 

Our Colquitt backyard gathering.
  Thank goodness the weather yesterday was nothing like it is this morning...

Snow is falling!

An idea as Friday approaches

For the third year in a row- this candy bowl and sign will be on our front porch greeting trick-or-treaters. 
(An 80 pound black lab shepherd mix will eagerly be waiting inside to inflict bodily harm if a bad guy is reading this)



A new bowl and sign will be added to the porch, along with a teal pumpkin
Just an idea for folks.
"As you walk around the neighborhood for some Halloween fun this year, you might find yourself wondering why some of the pumpkins are teal.  These pumpkins don’t come from a strange patch, but from a new national campaign called The Teal Pumpkin Project that’s promoting food-allergy awareness this Halloween...

To participate, individuals paint a pumpkin teal and display it, or post a free, printable FARE sign from the organization’s website, then provide non-food treats to trick-or-treaters on Halloween. FARE suggests offering trinkets such as glow sticks, bracelets, vampire fangs and spider rings."
