Major Fail!

So, I clearly fail at Project 365 but here's an update anyway.

Halloween, like most holidays, consisted of 3 events. First was trick or treating with the residents at GG's retirement home, the next day was the annual halloween party at Kimmie's and finally the actually halloween hoo-hah.

Here's Haley decorating her pumpkin

Project 365 (20/365)

Today we went shopping with Aunt Ca-Ca. We had to go to Joanns for fabric and paint, and then we went to the mall to get Haley a new pair of earrings since she lost the back to hers yesterday. After paying $5 to rent a "car stroller" because we thought it would be fun (when I had a perfectly good one in the car) we decided we should spend at least more than 5 minutes in the mall. So we went shoe shopping. Haley and I got matching Jordans...we're so cute :)

Today Brian spent the day putting flooring in the utility room. While he did that I took Haley to Pop-Pop's house to visit with everyone. While Haley took her nap, I worked out in the backyard trying to organize the sheds. After Brian finally finished the floor we all went outside to play.

Today we went to Hunsader Farm for the pumpkin festival. I've never been before but have heard good things about it. One problem though, it was HOT! I mean real hot. I know I live in Florida, but we were only out there for a couple hours, and we all got sunburned! No, I didn't think to put sunscreen on my daughter during the last week of October. Other than that, it would have been fun. When we left there we went to Mike and Jessica's house (they came to the festival with us) and played around on the go-kart. After that, we all came to our house, Brian and Mike finished the water heater, the girls went swimming (again, last week of October here) and watched movies, while me and Jess went to Wal-mart and Target for some Halloween shopping. It was a LOOOONG day!

HOT!

                                      

This is me, as a chicken :)

Project 365 (17/365)

We spent most of the day working around the house. We also decided to buy a tankless-water heater...pretty cool. So our friends Mike and Jessica came over with their kids. The boys went to work on the water heater, the kids watched movies, and Jessica and I sewed...We've never sewn before, either of us. I just bought a machine, and learned how to thread it and whatnot. Luckily, Jessica remembered some bits and pieces from high school. Together we were pretty much able to figure HOW to make this work, mostly. We are taking a class in November, hopefully it won't be to hard to learn. Anyway, 2 hours later, here is what we came up with. It started as just being like a pocket?, but ended up as a hamster pillow...stuffed with, a plastic bag :) yay! We've decided we are good enough to make a pillowcase to use as Trick-Or-Treat bags for the kids...So I'll update about that later this week.

We went to go hang out with Haley's Gramma today. Unfortunately, Gramma didn't feel too good, but we all still had a nice relaxing day...Haley and Gramma even took a little nap together. On another note, today is also Gramma and Grandpa's wedding anniversary...Happy Anniversary Janet and Shawn, we love you :)

I do apologize for the not-to-great picture from my cell phone...turns out, this was the only picture I took today.

In return-here are some of my recent favorites of Gramma and Grandpa from earlier this month.

Good-bye little kitties :(

Project 365 (14/365)

Haley was in a fun mood today...we stayed in our PJ's until bible class. I had an appointment with the endocrinologist this morning (everything is looking great, finally.) Haley stayed home with Brian and had a  daddy/daughter morning. Then, Brian had an unemployment seminar (whoo-hooo) from 1-5pm so we had a mommy/daughter afternoon :)

Today we took a little break from working in the backyard (finally.) We went to Harbor Freight and $5Fashions this morning...found nothing. Then we stopped at Subway for lunch and when it was time for Haley's nap I realized we didn't have any warmer clothes she could wear to the Fall Festival so I made a solo trip to Kohls (awesome, but gave me too much time to shop without distruptions and I spent way to much money :(
When Haley woke up everyone was here and ready to go, so after a quick snack, we were out. Haley didn't get to ride any rides, but I rode one too many :) We had some french fries, funnel cake, and lots of yummy goodies. Haley played a couple games, and even won a goldfish (who is already happily in his tank.) And Haley's Gramma even bought her an icecream cone, YUMMY!
