yesterday i spent the entire day in my garage.

the girls came over.

we de-junked an entire van load.

in the Spring we will have a garage sale.

we organized.

they took some of their own stuff home.

i organized Spark stuff.

Girls' Loft stuff ready for the Virtual Garage Sale we will be having in the next week or so.

my Mr. hung all my lampshades for me.

he's brilliant.

he made a delicious Roast dinner for us.

it was a long day, we worked our butts off.

having a nice Sunday dinner together was a great reward.

i can't believe it's November.

November 5th already!

last week i was the normal crazy.

i went up to Idaho with Grant to see Christy and celebrate her birthday.

IMG_1141
i met her at her new house in the country.

she was late.

{of course}WINK.

so Ben put me to work in her studio.

IMG_1133
i layed 2 bricks.

it was fun to see the progress she and Ben have made.

we had lunch and spent the afternoon talking.

perfection.

it's been fun to be able to see her when i am at Grant's house in Idaho.

Thursday was Halloween and i hosted my traditional Halloween dinner & Trick-or-treat with the girls.

i make chili and pumpkin chocolate chip muffins.

we dress up.

IMG_1172
meg said i couldn't be a witch again so i had to pull costumes for my Mr. and I out of a hat.

{so to speak}

i decided on Pirates.

IMG_1178
i went to my local thrift store and bought Grant some black pants and a white shirt.

i tore them up.

then to Walmart for bandanas, eye patches and a yard or striped fabric.

i had the rest.

for less than $20 we had our costumes.

pretty cute i think.

Brooke was Madonna.

IMG_1183
She rocked it out.

Meg and Jeremy were amazing!

IMG_1191
Meg did such a great job on their make-up.

together we all looked pretty great.

IMG_1194

i love traditions.

i love that we all made the effort.

it was a lot of fun.

Friday morning i got up early to get ready for another trip back up to Idaho.

this time to surprise Christy.

Ben her husband and i planned a little surprise from the trues.

Chrissy, Jamie and i drove to Idaho for a surprise weekend together.

Ben & i secretly planned it.

Rhonna had to bow out at the last minute to stay home.

we really missed her.

a road trip with my trues was just what we all needed.

IMG_1240

Ben even gave us some mad money to spend.

the day was perfect.

and our joys.

With havin so much written content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement? My website has a lot of exclusive content I've either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my authorization. Do you know any techniques to help reduce content from being ripped off? I'd definitely appreciate it.

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic however , I'd figured I'd ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog post or vice-versa? My website addresses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Awesome blog by the way!

When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Bless you!

Hi there this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I would like to express my appreciation to you for rescuing me from such a problem. Right after looking throughout the world wide web and obtaining things which were not powerful, I figured my life was gone. Being alive minus the strategies to the issues you've resolved by means of your good posting is a critical case, and those that might have badly affected my career if I hadn't discovered your site. Your good skills and kindness in touching every item was valuable. I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't discovered such a thing like this. I can also at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time so much for the professional and results-oriented help. I will not think twice to suggest your web page to any individual who wants and needs assistance about this area.
