Here's her new 'do....

Yes, it's short but not near as bad as I thought it'd be. The funniest thing was she asked me to put it in a bun for ballet. Nope, not gonna happen. Then Eric told her she looked like a boy and she cried and cried.

It's cute, but hopefully the comment from Eric and the inability to look like the other little girls at ballet will start to make an impression
 

So what is everyone doing for Halloween?

I'm dressing up as the Great Pumpkin to hand out treats. Alan doesn't have to work that day, so he gets to take the twins trick or treating. Katie and Jacob will go off with their friends. They get to go around the circle we live on and then Alan will take them to their cousins house, and some other places. It's always busy around here. Tons of kids. I've been stockpiling candy since September.
 
Does anyone have their Christmas Ornament for the exchange yet? I hope the stores get Christmas items out soon, because I don't .

Not yet. Still waiting for the stores to put out their Christmas stuff. That will happen about October 28.:laughing:
 
Chuck & I might be planning a quick trip to Disney for the F&WF before it ends. I talked with him yesterday about it. He told me the girls were wondering what I wanted to do for my birthday and I said I hoped we'd be at Disney. Then we talked more and I told him I really wanted to go before F&WF ended. It is $300 each for airline tickets so I don't know if we'll actually go through with it but we'll be checking it out. We are both in serious withdrawals.

If you would be going, what dates might it be?
 
So I got this in my email. I thought it might bring you a few laughs.

With all the turmoil in the market today and the collapse of Lehman Bros and Acquisition of Merrill Lynch by Bank of America this might be some good advice. For all of you with any money left, be aware of the next expected mergers so that you can get in on the ground floor and make some BIG bucks.

Watch for these consolidations later this year:
1.) Hale Business Systems, Mary Kay Cosmetics, Fuller Brush, and W R. Grace Co. Will merge and become: Hale, Mary, Fuller, Grace.
2.) Polygram Records, Warner Bros., and Zesta Crackers join forces and become: Poly, Warner Cracker.
3.) 3M will merge with Goodyear and become: MMMGood.
4. Zippo Manufacturing, Audi Motors, Dofasco, and Dakota Mining will merge and become: ZipAudiDoDa.
5. FedEx is expected to join its competitor, UPS, and become: FedUP.
6. Fairchild Electronics and Honeywell Computers will become: Fairwell Honeychild.
7. Grey Poupon and Docker Pants are expected to become: PouponPants.
8. Knotts Berry Farm and the National Organization of Women will become: Knott NOW!
And finally...
9. Victoria 's Secret and Smith & Wesson will merge under the new name: **********BangBang

I hope you can make it work out, Vicki. I told Bob if I could get a great airfare I would go down for another weekend before it is over too. I think it is one of the best things that Disney does.

Macy's had theirs out a couple of weeks ago!

I'm looking at November 6-10 but we haven't really got anything planned yet. I'm in Lansing so won't be able to sit and look at it with Chuck until this week-end.

Elin, Chuck & I think that F&WF is one of the best things that Disney does as well. We especially love WS anyway.

That is the time frame I want to be in Florida for homecoming. The game is on the 7th. Although I could probably fill all my time up with those activities. But I would love to get to the food and wine festival.

If I do not go to that. I may go to the UCF game at Marshall the next weekend. Although I may decide to save my money for something later.

I would really love to do this cruise. But I do not want to borrow all my vacation time for next year.

Then again I have a book here called 500 places to take your kids before they grow up. It has places all over the world. I would love to visit lots of them.

We'll be there the 8th through the 15th, we'll have to try and meet if our trips overlap.

cheaptickets worked great for me for Salt Lake (about $60 each way).

Hope you can do it!!
 
I finished up the patchwork skirts for the latest MAW Big Give. I also made a handbag for the Mom so that she can match her little ones too.

Another Diser is making the appliqued Minnie T-shirts to go with them. I couldn't find any short sleeve 4T shirts around here to save my life!

It's very cute. Girls can wear short hair and not look like a boy. Take me for example :snooty:

It's A Girl :cloud9:


She gave us several "booty" shots so there is no doubt, now I can start shopping. :banana: :banana: :banana:

That's great news. I'm so happy for your family :cool1:
 
Wow you guys were chatty while I was at work. I did manage to catch up though.

I have a nagging little cough, but otherwise I feel fine.
