Good News and Goodbye

The puppy is now back at his home, with his family. Great news!

Also, I will be away from my computer for about a week. So goodbye for now!

Visitor

Today, we had have, as he's still here, a visitor. Our backyard fence is partly comprised of barbed wire, open to the field behind us. A puppy has invaded our lives, and he thinks he has found his new home. Currently, he is in Dezi's new doghouse (see pics!), sleeping on his blanket. Poor Dezi refuses to go in there with him, thus has been sleeping on the chair on the back porch. Dezi loves loves loves his doghouse, and he is quite offended to have been usurped.

Good grief, I don't need another little body to take care of. I'm putting this in writing...he is not moving in with me!

Bed Head is the New 'Do

Cutest case of bed head I've ever seen!

Attention Fellow Mommies

I'm selling my secret recipe for mashed potatoes.

Guaranteed to put your sweeties to sleep, giving you some blessed quiet!

If you are not too young to sweep,

then you are not too young to rot your 5 teeth with Halloween candy!

Happy Halloween!

When you wait until the day before Halloween to shop for costumes, and you want to spend less than $40, and you are not really a Halloween person anyway, your kids look like this...

Ok, I admit it...I'm a Halloween scrooge. In fact, I am even going to turn the porch light off when we get back from trick-or-treating. You know, to save the 6 bucks I'd have had to spend on candy. Ahem.


BTW, I took these pics long before its time to go, so they aren't completely made up. Maddie will be grumpy by the time we actually set out at 7 pm. But aren't they cute anyway?!
