Halloween and such...

Happy Fall everyone!! Or should I say Merry Christmas, because Christmas stuff is EVERYWHERE. Me and Trish (my mom) shopped until we dropped today at Mistletoe Marketplace in Jackson. So much fun!! We got alot of great things (clothes, jewelry, christmas stuff, MSU stuff), but we also got alot of ideas for my house because Trish is real crafty...and we can make some of it for cheap! Too bad I didn't inherit that gene, or the cleaning gene for that matter. Anyways, here is last week's recap

We spend Halloween at Joey's coworker's house. And for this party, your costume had to start with the letter "P" So I give you..... the Principal on Probation and his star Pupil... haha!!!

Luckily, Principals don't smile too much...and neither does Joey (in pictures). He had a paddle that doubled as a shot glass and my pin star said "star student." I wore my hair in pigtails, and I will use any excuse to wear it like this...halloween is always an important one. I got my plaid skirt from walmart via the Miley Cyrus collection. I had an old one that was used for swaps, but it was way too short...did I actually wear that out of the house? Yes, indeed I did. In college, swaps = time to skank it up (but that is a whole other blog).  Here are some other pictures from the evening....

All of Joey's coworkers (the Pitchman, the Pope, the Pilot, the Pilgram, and the Principal)

 they were so fun!

Me and the newly engaged Policewoman

Next, OUR CURTAINS CAME IN!!! finally. Those 5 year old children in India must have been working hard for the last 2 months because they look great!! Tara came over and helped us install them. She is pretty crafty herself (again, wish I had that gene).

Oohhhhh Ahhhhhhh

Loves it! I kind of closed them to illustrate that now, no one can see in at nighttime (Joey was just convinced we had peeping toms because we made it so easy for them)

This is an upclose picture of the pattern...its called Gold Medallion something

And these are my Fall wreaths...and look who is a "pick-a-boo" little Riley Lindley

Lastly, I saw this on "Flipping Out" and I want one. Santa? If I am on the good list can I have one?

It just zooms around and picks up the dirt...such a smart little piece of technology

THIS WEEKEND: We are taking our Christmas card photos. As some of you know, I am pretty hardcore about our Christmas card. Joey, on the other hand, could care less and this little session almost turned into a fashion shoot with just me. He was refusing to go, but then I put on my best pout face and now he's in....the pout face always wins! Anyways, we are meeting our photographer for some cute, action shots. I will post more about it after this weekend!!!

Have a happy day!
