ahhhhhraaaghhh

My life and house have been taken over by halloween costumes. Somehow this whole last min thing always happens. Darcy's costume had to be finished by today for a work costume party, so I'm starting my costume now. One Dracula inspired vampire down, one raven/crow to go.
There will be pictures when I can stop and take time to stop cutting and sewing.

Do you have any idea how much fabric is involved in a lined cape? I didn't really think that one through. It's pretty epic.

Tonight we get pumpkins (yes, we're procrastinators) and carve them. I'll take pictures of that too. Should be hilarious.

I am wildly excited about giving candy to trick or treaters, I plan on having two bowls- one of good candy for the kids who try, and one of less awesome for the ones who didn't, or the ones who don't have spirit. No "trick or treat!" no candy.

Window boxes

I filled the window boxes upstairs with pansies and mums, hopefully it will continue to be warmish and not kill them all off.

what? tuesday? again?

Blah. I am sick of moving stuff. I've made more yoyos, but thats about it. I need to start making cards and such, but I cant really get to anything because of the rejected queen box spring. Hopefully someone will come haul that away today. Come on craigslist! *crosses fingers*
We went to DC yesterday and played at museums and the zoo. Good times.

moving

This past weekend has been super hectic- moving, unpacking, assembling furniture, questing for things that we need. Ahhh.
I will be very glad when we are settled in and I can find stuff to make things again.
