I got this on my pillow!!
We all got a visit from Diane!
The weekend is over. The kids are back in school after "Fall Break" (whatever...glamorized name for the stupid deer hunt. Two days of school off. Stupid, stupid deer hunt.) I mean, we had a fabulous weekend full of togetherness and love. The house guest has gone home. Party's over...(hee hee!)
This kid gets it. He is awesome. 
We were rudely awakened at 5am when the power line in our back yard starting exploding...no lie. See, when it snows before the leaves have had a chance to fall off, the branches get too weighed down with snow and rest on the power lines. Bad stuff. Every time the power would come back on, shortly following there was a LOUD crack/bang/light up the sky BOOM that was not too far from our 8 ft wide bedroom window. CREEPY.
You can see the line sparking when they touched it with their clippers.
The up side...fresh snow is beautiful. I kept thinking today how blessed we were to be ok after the mornings events. I also had a cinnamon candle burning and that, plus the snow made it feel like Christmas time. Which is a bad thing because I've barely scratched the surface with my shopping...everyone would have received framed pictures of the burning electrical wire in our back yard. Not such a great gift...
Popcorn. LOTS of popcorn. 
Skeleton guy craft.
We do this one every year. It's a hit. Just call me Martha.
And if your skeletons end up looking like this...
...even better!!
(and when your 5 year old blames YOU that there was no room left for a seleton head after HE put all of the stickers on, make sure you document it so as to torture him years down the road...along with all of the friday fashion fotos!!)
He's very proud of his eye crossing abilities!
Isn't he adorable?!?
