Some last Halloween Thoughts!

My vintage candy bucket! It's huge and too cute!

My super cute purse! I love it I got it 2 years ago on ebay! I bought some of the fabric this year and hope to make something cute!

I made this my senior year in High School and my mom uses it every year. We were so excited when the little battery candles came out! Now we can light him up!

My bedside table!

These three little guys are my few new pieces this year! I LOVE them!

This was from Hallmark last year! The perfect candy apple!

My bootiful niece!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Pink Saturday at the North Carolina State Fair!

Since I am lucky enough to live just a few miles away from the NC Fair Grounds I get to go to the State Fair every year. It is just the fair but do you know how much great free stuff you can get there? It's awesome! But more on that later! Now we will do Pink!

This cute quilt won a prize and is in the 9 and younger category!! Is that cool or what?!

The little felted wool lady is also in that age group!

Here is a Cotton Candy vendor with PINK flags!!

This is where we eat every year. It is a full plate of real food and it's $6! They are really great and hey the tent is PINK!

This is Memphis eating his Pink hot dog in the pink tent at the pink table!

Yummy!

Please visit my sweet friend Heidi @ Fairy Footprints in the Sand, her family is in need of prayer this Pink Saturday.

Cause they're cute!

My sweet Casey

She is my first pet on my own.

My baby is 13! She is doing well for an old girl! She is the perfect dog for me.I got so lucky when I found my sweetie as the pet of the day on our local tv news. She and her sister were the only two females and they plus the runt of the litter were the only ones with short hair. I was advised to get a shepherd mix ( Australian Shepherd) and to get a female. So since the other was black and white and looked just like my mom's dog I got Casey.

She has been my best friend and constant companion for 13 years this Halloween. She is the best dog in the whole world. (ignore any complaining , fussing I may do about her) and is as devoted to me as I am to her.

Best Dog in the Whole World!

My Spunky Fred.

He is a handme down form a handme down

He really would love a deaf old lady to live with that would let him bark and eat 24/7

My baby Molly

She (as were my other 2) is a rescue.

I  decided I wanted a Yorkie, and was searching, no way I could afford a breeder one and would take a mix but she ended up being the one I found that I could get. She is the perfect Yorkie for me. I was lucky. I have since tried to figure out WHY I thought I wanted a Yorkie, BUT if I had to get one so was the one for me! She has very few teeth left but since she is pushing 11 pounds I don't think it is stopping her from eating. hehehe

I did these pictures to put in a frame I won in my first blog giveaway (well 1st win). And they worked so well. I have a few sets printed because they came out too big to fit the frame. I'm very pleased and hope you all enjoy visiting my babies!

Hugs, Lisa

What Mom has been up to

So since it is cool to be green we recycle and we reuse.

We save almost every jar we use here. When we had some already used paper (the printer at work went crazy and printed smiley faces in a line on about 60 sheets of paper, if you've ever had this happen it is not fun!) so I started printing off some great Halloween pics (thanks photoscape!) Now what to do...

Mom grabbed a bottle and a few jars, spray painted the tops black and....

She painted her tray too!

the bottle

large jar

large fat jar

the candy holder! Sorry no great pic of the small jar. I'll have a talk with my photographer. hehe

But the candy holders she made too along with the sweet little kitty standing in the box!

She is crafty. Not me!

Please ignore the large table in back of the picture. Storage here is full!!

Ok I did do this one! Thanks to The Graphics Fairy! This is so easy it's not even funny! I even glittered it!

Have a fun Halloween season!!

Hugs, Lisa
