Our local Party, Party, Party store had some really cute "Princess" things for little girls. The Tinker Bell pony tail holders were......wait for it......in DIS lime green!

With little bells on them!

Sometimes I wish I had a little girl to dress.

What is flamingo flocking? Inquiring minds want to know.

That is when someone pays an onganization to put those plastic flamingos in your yard. You have to pay to get them removed...at least that is how they do it around here.

I would put it in the back of my wallet.

That was where I last recall seeing it. I feel like the voucher was a separate piece of paper from the receipt. Still can't find what I recall seeing.

[klineyqueen]

I wish I could lose my "pumpkin"!!

I have not watched it at all this season. I was going to watch Heros online. I missed it this week. DH mentioned he thought it would be On Demad so I'll check there first. I finally got to see the season premiere of Battlestar Galactica and it was on demand as well.

DD8 and I worked on a gingerbread Halloween House on Sunday. She really did most of the work (I'm such a controlling mom on crafts... I want to take over, but I was good this time!). Here are some photos:
