Halloween encounters!
As tradition in our family dictates, we carved pumpkins last night!
I will post pictures of them tomorrow. Unfortunately, due to high winds the pumpkins stayed inside last night. Today the weather is just a bit more forgiving and we should be able to light them for a few hours. They are all adorable.
I am so sorry I couldn’t post as promised yesterday! We had massive power outages on and off for several hours. We had to carve the pumpkins by candle light some of the time! It was kinda fun! We listened/watched the Disney movie “The Haunted Mansion” and really had a great time.

Ok, for the blog candy update, remember so far it includes a wood mount stamp and some other goodies. Today I am adding a $25.00 Michael’s gift card! Get started early on that Holiday shopping and stamp magic!
Yesterday afternoon, I took the metro to Alexandria, Virgina. I met my sweet husband for lunch and we walked down King Street. There are a lot of quaint little shops and neat things to see and do. We stopped in a store called “Paper Source” which was experiencing some minor problems with lighting and they had a fair selection of rubber stamps at very decent prices. I picked up a set of (I think) 6 stamps for $15.00. Lets face it — I’ve been known to buy a singleton for that amount! I had a really fun day.
The day was very windy so we didn’t stay out in the elements too long.
Update on the goof! We have a date for the braces to come off his teeth! The orthodontist is pretty certain they will come off on the November 27,2008. Right after Thanksgiving and right before Christmas. When I asked Chad what he wanted to eat first he told me ‘blow pops’, I told him no crunching — braces or not!
I hope everyone is enjoying reading my blog, I’m still looking for a good , reliable and not expensive video camera so I can start v-blogging! Even Jennifer Perkins of the DIY show ‘Craft Lab’ thinks I should (she emailed me and left a message on the blog, how cool is that?!). I think its a sign!
Stamp Happy!
