Halloween Pix and last Craft night pix

Well finally I managed to get the pix of the girls dressed in their Halloween finery uploaded. Melanie was Aerwen, the elf princess from Lord of the Rings. Jenna was a princess also. Of course they were both beautiful and they truly are my princesses. I just love them both.

BUT, I'm glad Halloween is over and we can move on to Thanksgiving and then Christmas. I am excited for both of those holidays this year. I usually dread the decorating and the shopping and the eating, but I am kind of anxious to start this year for some reason. It certainly isn't because we have any money to go shopping with, but that's OK. It will work out anyway.

I also finished my last project from the family craft night and took a pix. I really like the way it turned out. I will still have to put a dowell across the top so we can hang it up. I am excited about it and the other projects and say thanks again to everyone that came and brought such fun stuff to do.

Now, we're into November, so it's time to start working on "the gifts" for the people at the office. We came upon a great idea on Heather's (YEAH Heather) website for Super Saturday, so we are shamelessly taking it and doing it! I can't tell you what it is yet, but I'll show you when one is finished. There are 17 people in our office and believe me it is hard to come up with something wonderful and unique each year and within the budget. Last year, the 3 secretaries made coaster calendars for everyone's desks. They were adorable (of course) and some of them have been used and some have been on January all year, unless we change them ourselves. So this year, we were wondering what we could do. I promise to share very soon!!

I hate the time changes back and forth between DST and regular time. It just doesn't really make sense to me. We have so many hours of daylight and so much darkness. I don't think it really matters whether we "save" any or not, so why not leave the clocks along - and my poor old body clock and just go with it!!

Tomorrow is election day!! I hope everyone votes and I pray that whoever wins will truly love America and put the country's best interests ahead of anything else!! It is a scary time!!
