Things I Have Worked On

It's a beautiful day here in Arizona. I wanted to share a few of the projects that I had been working on or I am currently working on.
First off though I wanted to say thank you to whoever it was that Booed us with this beautiful and delicious plate of cookies the other week. We enjoyed them!
This is a mini photo album I made for Halloween for this year. I need to print off the pictures to place them but I think the book turned out cute. and a couple of pages from the inside and Can't wait to get the pictures in it.
The next is a photo album I made for my Thanks Giving Thankful mini album
It started as this I modge podged the paper to the chip board and filed it off. This is the front and then what I have done so far I will be filling this throughout the month.
The next is a album I started last year and put to the side for this year. It is the countdown to Christmas.
Then I covered with modge podge and paper to look like this I will be putting something on each day to do for the day by day countdown to Christmas day.
The next is our headboard. I will leave these on till the day after Thanksgiving then the Christmas ones will go on. I just love the ambiance of these
The next is just the sweetest little guy in the world. The last time Coco and her family were down to visit Talmage sat in his little toy box to watch TV with his blanket and Kit Kat . I love this little guy so much!
Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Good Monday Morning

Had a fun weekend and I am truly glad that Halloween is over. November I think is my favorite month of the year. I have taken down all the Halloween decorations this morning, done with 2 loads of laundry and I am ready for this week. Excited that Coco, Baby Peanut, Kyle and Talmage are coming down this Thursday. Kyle is testing for a police department in this area so please say a prayer or two that all goes well. I would love to have them down here living again.
 I am making a chicken w/ rice dish tonight. Just started working on my menu for this week so I am not done with it yet. I plan on using meat from the freezer and incorporating a lot of food storage in my menu.
 Got a somewhat busy day ahead so I better get to it. Have a great day! I'll be around to check on everyone's blogs a little later. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Funny Thing Happened

Last night Faith, Gabby and I went Trick or Treating . The night was beautiful and we were having a good time. We get to the last street in our neighbor hood. This street the people go all out and some a little over board with the grossness items. This one house was just one of those houses. They have a guillotine and a graveyard with a lot of nasty things that just gross me out. I try not to look as I drive by it is that bad. My girls are really wanting to go down this street and to this house. The people are nice but at Halloween it just creeps me out. As we are walking up I notice some extra figures, one in the yard and one in the drive way and 2 people sitting in lawn chairs. My 9 yr. old Gabby walks up the one man in the lawn chair and says as she points to the figure in the driveway,"If that thing moves I am going to hit it." The man says ok so she goes over to it and the guy lets out a growl and lunges at her. Gabby swings her half full pillow case of candy at him and proceeds to chase him as he runs away. She gets her candy and so does Faith. The guy then walks back over and Gabby does the same thing again. The other guys are laughing so hard. It was really funny to see my little Purple Pixy chasing this big guy hitting him with her candy sack. So that is how we ended the Trick or Treating. We came home the girls did their usual candy exchange and then showers, T.V. and relax before bed.
Hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween. I do have to say I am glad that it is over I am not thrilled with the scary movie previews and ghost shows that are on TV this time of the year. Let's move on to my favorite holiday Thanksgiving. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Happy Halloween And Happy Pink Saturday

Happy Halloween to everyone!

My New Do

Growing up from the age of 13 till 21 I did hair shows. This means I had a new hair style or color sometimes both about every month. I get bored of my hair one way too long.
So today my friend Amy did her magic to my hair. I love it! It is business in the front and

Party in the back
Now for highlights in the front.
If I look tired it is due to having to pick up son late last night as a fairy and getting up early this morning. My day was busy running all over the place but got a lot done. Sleep will come later tonight. going to the Trunk or Treat at our church. I made corn bread and Gooey Pumpkin Cake to go with the chili cook off before.
This is my little fairy "Twinkles" (E'lyse) as she got home from school today. Now my fairy name is "Sparkles".
Miss. Twinkles
Have a fun Friday night! Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Why Me?

The day was spent finishing up my daughter, E'lyses (13yrs. old) Halloween costume she decided she wanted to change it 2 days before the big day. So we shopped and had a lot of fun. She decided on a purple fairy. While shopping I spotted some pink fairy wings and of course couldn't pass them up for myself. So last night I had to pick up my son from his girlfriends house after they had gone to a wedding. Being that I don't like driving that far away from the house at night by myself I asked if E'lyse wanted to go with me. She said yes then said we should dress as fairies to get him. Me liking to dress up and wanting to wear my pink wig and wings I said, 'Sure!" So we get ready and head over. It is now about 10:30 I am driving to get there and passed the main road I was to turn on so I flip a u and get back to the road and turn right. All of the sudden red and blue lights flashing behind me! EEEKKK!! What is it about these lights that scare the tar out of me? So I pull over in the first parking lot. The cop walks up the van door, shines his light in my face that has sparkles, makeup and me in my pink hair and wings and says,"Well I have never stopped anyone with pink hair before." He takes my license and heads to his car to check it out. My daughter is laughing so hard saying," This is so cool. You getting stopped by a cop dressed as a fairy. Wait till I tell my friends!" So he left me with a note of how to turn a right corner and stay in the close lane and a good evening. Thank you Mr. Police man for not giving me a ticket. I appreciate it!
So this is my life. Why me? Why not I say. I love life and will continue to get caught being a dork throughout it. So what can we do but smile and enjoy! Have a great Friday! Hugs, Bobbi Jo

I Signed My Life Away

I signed my life away earlier today. I am going back to school starting January4Th, 2010 . It has been so long since I have been in school or even had a regular place to be outside of the home . I will going to Arizona School of Massage Therapy. Therefor along about the 5th week of school I will need volunteers to give massages to every evening as my homework. I am excited yet scared. It will be a major change of what I have been use to the past 19 1/2 years of being a stay at home mommy. I love being a SHAM but I feel it is time for me to get some education under my belt again. This has been a tough decision for over the past 4 years or so. I hope I will have everyone's support especially my family. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Happy Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday! Sorry this post is a little late it's been a busy morning. My thanks goes out to Beverly over at How Sweet The Sound for hosting this even every week.
These are my pinks to share this week
This is a crown Gabby made me. I thought it was very sweet especially the #1 Mom on it.

At the little girls school they had a book fair and I spotted these and had to have them

Just love the crowns on them and Pink too!
This is a scrapbook paper I found and just had to get it. I have a few ideas for a sign I think I will make for my bedroom or bath
The jewels are crystals that are so beautiful in person.
Hope everyone is have a great Pink Saturday! Mine is going great just keeping busy. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

NEWS

I was informed by my sweet daughter Coco yesterday that she will be bringing in to this beautiful world a princess. Here is Miss Naimi Fays 1st photo shoot.
Coco was really not wanting to find out if it was a boy or girl so she left it up to her hubby. So they found out. She had text me that they found out but wasn't going to tell me till all the kiddos were home from school. Well I am not a patient lady so I had to call and find out. After much pleading and begging she told me.
We are all excited about this of course we would have been just as excited to have another bouncing baby prince. Talmage will be a wonderful big brother. I am excited for our family to have another sweet spirit to join our family. Just another great child to love and enjoy.
I hope everyone is have a great day. Mine is great so far! Hugs, Bobbi Jo
