Happy Halloween...

To those who enjoy it, dressing up in fancy dress, eating lollies, what's not to enjoy huh? Hmmm, sounds like something I'd like to do, you know my love of fancy dress.

I felt quite sad for my two new American nephews, their first Halloween in Australia, no spooks, no dressing up, no lollies or candy. Yes, we are seeing a bit of it infiltrating our shops over here, but there is no trick or treating, at least not where we live. So I sent two big Halloween helium filled balloons tied to a big jar of lollies to their house. What a surprise my brother said, the look on their faces were enough! Okay so it cost me a fortune to send it but it is worth it. And that's what Auntys and Uncles do right?

So Happy Birthday today. Firstly to Miss B, number 3 step-child. Sweet 16 and never been kissed today. We're off to a family BBQ this afternoon, weather is looking a bit tenuous out there, so we'll see what the day ends up like.


And Happy Birthday to twolittlepixels. I can't believe it's been a year since Sharon and Megan opened the shoppe for the digiscrap followers. And well birthdays there are presents right? How about 30% off the goodies in the shoppe? How about some fabulous new stitches by guest designer Syrin, and we all love Syrin's stitches!!!! How about a present from twolittlepixels to you?

HUH?

I agree, that was very thoughtful, and the nephews would have been thrilled.
