Halloween Projects



Whew...been awhile so I thought I'd just jump right in with what we're up to these days. Um...crafts & projects. Transitioning to an at-home mom has been great, but I'm turning into one of the moms I never would have though. The project mom. Crazy, I know. Luckily I have a co-conspirator, Kelly, my sister. Although she just pretends to be an at-home mom...she really works from home watching other people's children so she doesn't have as much time on her hands as I do.


Anyhoo...Kel will be crafting tomorrow and I am anticipating photos with a detailed account of the event. My Halloween crafting inspiration came from Kaboose and Martha Stewart whilst I was surfing around on the web looking for projects for Kelly to do with one of her tykes. My crafts were completed by my youngest daughter, Tana and myself. Well mostly me; she did however glue the ghost together and paint the eyes and cheeks on him and when she wasn't busy doin that she was instructing me on how to complete the other crafts. Tana thought my pumpkin was hideous in orange and suggested blue. To which I replied "What, are you fucking crazy??? A blue pumpkin?! Ametures..." Not really, but that was fun. What I really told her was maybe next year (she'll hopefully have forgotten by then).


I have to admit the crafts were fun, but after half of a day, I was pretty much over it. I still have a couple more ideas/projects for Halloween so I'll post them if as they are completed. In addition to this I have completely redesigned Elizabeth's room. I'll put up pics tomorrow. Or next year. I'm not so consistent on the blog thing. Well, enjoy for now :)
