A day at Great Adventure!

What a day! My sister and I took the kids to Great Adventure on November 1st. We went through the safari and had a blast! I can't wait to do it again!!! The animals were great! We had Giraffes licking the windows and the roof of my sister's van. The kids really enjoyed themselves too! Here a few pics that I just have to share!







As Matthew said," Ostrages are people too!"





After the safari, we headed to the park! They had "ghosts and ghools" that roamed the park. Matthew was a bit scared but he loved the Dead Mans Party! There were actors dressed up as zombies that performed to rock music. Matt really loved it. He hopes that they do it again next year. Thanks Randee for the tickets!!!!!! We all had a blast!!!


Halloween

I know that Thanksgiving is in just a few days but I wanted to back track a little since I was unable to post for a while.

Matthew wanted to be the Jester from one of the Halloween stores but the costume was really flimsy to say the least. So I pulled out the old sewing machine and came up with this.

The skulls were a cream color and I just painted them silver then I dry brushed black into the creases to give it more depth. I drilled holes into the tops then threaded them onto his "colar" and Hat with Beads. The hat was my favorite part to make!

We stoped by my Uncles house as we do every year. This year I was able to get a good photo of the two of them. He is such a Ham. lol Later that night my favorite little Lady bug stopped by. Also known as Katie~Bug!! She had a big night and was still on the move. lol Oh to have the energy of a one year old!!!




Hi Ya All!

Well my computer is finally fixed. I strongly suggest that you put at least 2 good anti spy wear programs on your computers. We recently had Trojans and had to wipe the hard drive clean. What a mess.

So this week is Thanksgiving! I want to say thank you to everyone who has passed through to have a look at my blog. I am grateful for the friendships that have formed through my hobby of scrapbooking. It's amazing what bonds can form over a Hobie. I hope that you all have a Healthy and Happy Thanksgiving!! I am also very thankful for my family! They have been supportive and giving all year through and I love them with all my heart!!!
