New Trick or Treat Bags

October is finally over!

It has been one hard month.

The Sweetheart has had all kinds of setbacks since

his hip replacement on Sept. 25.

Not with the hip but with other health issues.

He has been a diabetic since he was 18 yrs old.

It has really taken a toll on his body.

We never know from day to day what will come next with him.

It's really hard to make any long term plans.

So needless to say, I'm looking forward to a better month.

Hopefully November will bring us lots of different hope and changes!

 

BA Hum Bug on Halloween.

But I had one crafty day this month and decided

 that the GRAND girls needed new Trick or Treat Bags.

 

 

 

They were really excited about the new bags and the few pieces

of candy that I threw inside.

 I live down a long dark and scary drive way

and have never had any Trick or Treater's

which is just fine with me, believe me!

I've made the Chili and the Mummy Dogs

and deserts and we are headed over to the GRAND girls 

house tonight to feed them and watch all the fun.

 I may or may not take my camera?

Depends on my mood.

I will take some cell phone pics though.

 

How do you like my Pumpkin Owl?

Mrs. Ella bought a black pumpkin from Michael's

and used an oil pen and painted the owl on it.

She gave it to me a few weeks ago as my birthday present.

My birthday is Sunday Nov. 4th, so it was a few weeks

early. She wanted me to enjoy it ahead of time.

This is the ONLY Halloween decoration

 that I have put up this year.

I really hope my desire to decorate for the holidays

comes back again.

 

Well, I hope who ever is out there has a safe and happy Halloween!

And BRING ON NOVEMBER!

Wish I lived closer and could have taken little Miss newborn pics.

Yesterday was a most perfect day for pictures.

Annaleigh Grace is 8 months old.

Happy Kids

These are my nephews and their new Sister In Law.

And they are silly.

And I just kept shooting.

 

 They are such a fun group.

The Newly Weds in the center.

PS, I did none of the posing for this group

they just normally act like this!

What a pleasure it is to have such a fun

family to photograph.

I love them lots and can't believe how much

 and how fast they have grown up.

 Makes me feel old some days. 

MOM!!!! Look What The Stork Brought!

I think she's a keeper!

Cell Phone Saturday

 

Bentley Bulldog went with us on our
 date night a few weeks ago.
He's sort of spoiled.
He got an McDonald's ice cream cone.
It's his favorite.
Not sure what that look is all about,
I wasn't eating his ice cream.

Bentley is a very smart dog.
I've trained him well.
He Kennels Up when told.
He sits on command,
Shakes hands,
Belly Crawls,
Rolls over,
And loves to play fetch.
(So do the dachshunds brothers)

After 2 1/2 years I have finally learned to love my dogs.

That's My Baby!

Oh how I love Black and White.

Being payed for photographing a family really feels good.

Have A Happy Weekend!
