Halloween Tea Party

I was going through some old pictures and I ran across these from a Halloween tea-party that we had at my Aunt Jenny's house about 3 or 4 years ago. We had so much fun! The photos are blurry...sorry... Me and Aunt Jenny...she was a good,sweet,witch and I was a saloon girl.

This is my Aunt Ann dressed as a punk rocker! The other lady was a porcelain doll.

My friend Missy as a flapper-girl and the other lady a big happy pumpkin!

Me in front of one of Aunt Jenny's china cabinets. I even love china at Halloween! We really had a fantastic time. We had lots of delicious food. I made a 3 layer chocolate,pumpkin,cheesecake. We don't normally celebrate Halloween...it just gave us another excuse to have a tea-party and to dress up.

Me and Missy all dressed up. (We even went shopping at a couple of stores like this and we even to my daughter's work to show her...I think she was embaressed...she worked at a bank. Oh...well...girls just gotta have fun!)

Loving my roses...

Just wanted to post a few more pictures of my roses. This was one morning last week after it had rained. They are still blooming so pretty. This was my first year to have my rose garden. I'm very happy that they did so well. I bet next year they will be even prettier. I want to plant a few more...maybe some yellow ones and some white ones.

This is my little man when he was around 2 years old. Doesn't he look handsome all dressed up like in the 'old' days? The photographer furnished the outfit but they didn't have any shoes to fit him! I told them that was okay because my granny told me that they didn't always wear shoes back then. They would usually get one pair a year, and that was for when school started and when the weather got cold. This was a page taken out of my scrapbook. Speaking of scrapbooks, I went to our Hudson Salvage Store the other day and found so much neat scrapbook stuff. I had to stock up! (Like I really needed more!) Garrett helped me pick out several packs of stickers and papers. We had a ball going through all of it! I need to do a few pages soon. I haven't done any in a while. I made each one of my children a scrapbook of their own. I also have one of just tea parties that I have been to. I will post pictures of some tea party pictures soon.

Sassy...my 'diva' doggie

This is me and my Sassy girl. I was outside on my litttle porch drinking my morning coffee and listening to the birds sing. She is such a baby! She wanted me to hold her. She turned 11 years old in September. Can you just see how much we love each other by these pictures? I had her doggie mama for 9 years before she passed away. That just broke my heart. Her name was "Classie". Sassy looks a lot like her mama...just a little bigger.

Dream House

Here is another house that I did a drive-by picture of one day. It was located in Hattiesburg,Ms. I can just image what it looks like on the inside! It is just so beautiful! I could just see myself sitting on the little balcony up top reading a book. I bet that room that leads to the balcony is the master bedroom. Isn't it fun to dream?

Fun at Granny's and Papaw's

This is Cole and his 'granny' and his sister Taylor, this past summer. He loves to go to his grandparents' house. He likes to help them with their flower beds,etc. He gets to see Taylor usually once a year. Taylor and his other sister Hillary, live in Colorado. We have always tried to keep them close.

My little monsters...

This is an old Halloween picture of Cole,Garrett,and Christy. Cole was the monster from the movie "Scream", Garrett was "Woody" from" Toy Story", and I asked Christy what she was and she just said that she was 'blue'. She doesn't look very blue with that big smile on her face! They were so cute! Last night we went to a halloween party at my sister's in Kentwood. Garrett was an army man and her son Chase was a football player. I didn't get to take pictures because when I tried to, my camera battery had died! That is why I'm posting an old photo. We had a good time at her house. She made chili bowls for super. Its a Paula Dean recipe. She also make home-made pumpkin pies. It was hard for me to eat them because they are Cole's favorite. I will make him one just for him on Thanksgiving. He will get to come home on pass for a few days.

I hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!
