Happy Halloween 2015!

Well things did NOT go as planned today. Nothing bad happened, no worries there, just nothing that we planned took place, aside from stopping by Angie's to give her kids their treat bags. Between you and me, I think their bags were a waste. Aside from Rose saying thank you, they just seemed whatever about it. We put a lot of crap in those bags and didn't really get anything back. Cody had a grocery store bag full of candy that he appeared to hide beside the recliner in the living room. It was all very odd.

They also had guests over, which made the entire thing even more awkward.

We had planned on going to Thee Abbey after for their candle lit "haunted house tour". Come to find out it wasn't haunted at all. It was JUST a tour of the place. The same tour they have all year around. The only thing that made it different was the fact that it was at night and by candle light. And did I mention that the tickets were $15 per person for less than an hour?! Yeah, no thank you! We quickly decided against it and headed to the store.

We got sidetracked in the store and started looking at Christmas decorations. You can imagine how odd we looked. We were probably the only two people in the country that were buying Christmas decorations on Halloween. We're weird like that, so it works.

We found SO many red and green things to match our theme this year. Ugh, it's so exciting! I wanted to buy one of everything, but we thought they might put different stuff out closer to Christmas. We also wanted to try out other stores, so we limited ourselves to just a handful of things. It's definitely safe to say I can't WAIT to decorate this year!

I know this is odd, but we also found holiday flavored dum dums at the store. HOLIDAY flavored! Like ginger bread and sugar cookie! How awesome is that?? I know, I'm still a child at heart that gets excited over candy, so what. Well I guess that's all for now, time to watch The Gallows!

Love & Peace

Check out all of the AWESOME Christmas decorations we scored today!

I especially love the little Santa up front.

Faith, Peace, and Hope.

Santa and a couple trees (these did not come together).

Ho ho ho train. No pun intended.

And a noel train.

Some red and green candy cane ornaments.

Holiday Dum Dums.

And lastly, Una watching The Green Inferno with me.

This goes out to all the mother's out there...

Since my actual mother lives hours away, all I could do was tell her Happy Mother's Day in one of the most trending ways... on Facebook. I tagged her in a post and messaged her, but never heard anything back. I intend on calling her later in hopes of reaching her.

Since my aunt -- who is like a mother to me -- lives just a jump and a skip away, my sister and I decided to treat her. We got her a card, a beautiful rose, took her out to dinner, and out for dessert. It was so nice to finally do something nice to her, because her compassion, love, and kindness knows no boundaries when it comes to us. I wish we could have taken her into the bigger city for dinner, but our local restaurant sufficed.

Unfortunately, all the pictures I took of her are on my phone. I have a love/hate relationship with taking pictures on that phone. I love the ease and convenience, but getting them on the computer when I need them is a bitch.

Well, I hope all the mama's out there had a spectacular Mother's Day! Until next year, ladies...

Love & Peace

Now for the random pictures from yesterday until today:

Kira, as you can tell, was totally ecstatic over her nail trim.

I can't believe how dark she's gotten over the years.

Chubby little Seamus.

He's so pretty.

And has such a snub nose.

Pretty boy!!

Zoe's feet. I love how they're stacked on top of each other.

A beautiful rose.

This was our rose to auntie Sharon.

This is seriously like the perfect peach colored rose.

The sunset from our drive down BB.

Here's another African sunset! Although I'm sure it would be much more beautiful there.

This is spooky, dark red shot of the sun. All of this by only messing with the exposure.

And lastly, a jet.
