And during the time of year when slacking is the LEAST bit welcome. I hope its just exhaustion from traveling, then going straight into working late....cause I really have A LOT to do for Halloween and Christmas. Eek!
So....Sunday the 18th was Aube's 3rd birthday....we were driving that day, but I don't think she noticed that her day stunk. I love to make birthdays SPECIAL, ya know? But what can you do? Monday night, James went out and let her pick out an ice cream cake. And Snow White called and wished her a Happy Birthday. Ü I want to keep the celebration going and take them to go and see Where the Wild Things Are...but the reviews are crap....saying it's not really a kids movie. I usually don't listen to reviews, tho...I feel like they are done by people who put to high of expectations on movies (it's just a MOVIE, people). Anyways....sorry, Aube...we love your sweet face!
Another area of major slackage....my Halloween decorations. At the beginning of October, I got the black spray paint out...found a few cool looking branches on the ground...and went to town. I LOVE these branches, I think they look so cool. They would look even cooler with the star apple-cinnamon ornaments I had planned to hang from them with orange polka dot ribbon...but which are still sitting on my craft table, half-painted. When did I become such a procrastinator?!
I do love my Pumpkin dude jars. And I even lit them last night!! No one noticed, tho. :(
Like I said, at the beginning of the month, I was in the groove...and I got this wreath from JoAnns and spray painted it black. With a little web-magic, it looks kinda spooky.
I put little googly eyes on it, too...and now i'm trying to figure out what I'll do with it at the END of October....I guess I need to finally invest in a wreath box, maybe?
So there you go....Slacker Sarah. I'm gradually working my way back...working on flower pins for the Primary leaders for this weekends Primary Program....and I have a TON of cool gifts I've found to make for people this year. AND I have the girls Halloween costumes to make by next weekend! We shall see....

Well how about I have zero Halloween decorations made or even up so you are way ahead of me!
You are way too crafty for me, missy! If I can knit- you could sure as heck rock out some serious knitting projects. :) Get the Klutz knitting kit, though. It's the best and easiest way to learn.
Your house is so cute. You do such fun things.
I am like you, I usually ignore reviews for movies. So I did with the Where the Wild Things Are cause we love the book so much. I really regret it. My kids were terrified. The movie was HORRIBLE! I am so easily entertained, I usually don't say that, but it was bad. Half way through my kids were begging me to leave they were so scared. So we did. Big waste of money.
You need to cut yourself some slack sweets! That was a long trip in a short amount of time while being prego! I wish I had your ideas and creatity. I'm just putting the girls in their dress up princess dresses for Halloween:-) I don't have the motivation for anything else! What are you making them???
CUTE halloween stuff! I made those jars too. and a spooky tree!
P.S. "Where THE WILD ThINGS ARE" totally sucked! I took my kids and good thing for me I loaded up halloween trick or treat goodie sacks... that really helped them enjoy it. Other then the Wild Things looking big and cool. It was really a symbolic type movie... boring and slow. No cool scenes or special effects... I was very dissapointed. However, this is my opinion. Hope you are feeling well, with your pregnancy and all. Stop by and visit me sometime...U don't visit anymore!
P.S. I personally didn't think the movie was scary.. Bella was giggiling a bunch when it first showed the characters... however, I will say weird adding to the slow and boring!
Sarah!! Those are so darn cute!! I love the decorations you made! And the googley eyes are such a fun idea! Boy, if this is slacking, we'd all better watch out when you're not slacking!! Wow!! And, yes, it was a long trip, and we're all still trying to recover! Love you! Excited to see you!!
