Happy Halloween!!

Call me crazy, but Halloween is my favorite day of the year. :0)

Here's some snaps from tonight...

First our graveyard, put together as a surprise for me when I came home today by Karlio and the boys...





Next, something I've been wanting to do since I saw it last year, the "puking pumpkin" {gross I know, but that's what Halloween's all about}
Thanks to Karlio for making that pumpkin in my dreams a reality today. :0)
When I told him about it a few days ago he thought I'd totally lost my mind, but he made it anyway...pretty cool, huh?



Here's Atreyu eating the, ahhhh....gunk.



Some pumpkins I found while walking around Main Street on my lunch break...




And lastly, the cutest pumpkin in the patch...





Tonight we went to the boys karate school's Halloween blast and yeppers, they had a blast. Lots of food, fun, candy, music and for Adri and Kody, lots of dancing. Oh wow..I wish ya'all could have seen her shaking her bootie to "Apple Bottom Jeans", it was just too cute, she literally had the whole place belly laughing.

It's late so I'm gonna to get, I'll update better tomorrow. Have a great night and a very Happy Halloween!!

She Drives Me Crazy...

***and I can't take it no more***

Sorry if ya'all got that song stuck in your head now. :0)

She's short.
She has flaming red hair.
She has a huge smile.
She likes to squeeze the cats.
She loves to pull off her shoes and hide them.
She gives hugs that would melt a snowman's heart.
She points at everyone and says "Stop It!"
She's thinks it's funny to dance with our Halloween decoration skeleton.
She will not stay still for a picture for anyone or anything.
She is her own mini diva with her own ideas.
It's her way or the highway.
She's a tomboy and can hold her own with the toughest of them.
She has a belly laugh that you can hear round the world.
She's Adriana Destiny....the silliest "K" family member we've got.



And while Adri tickles the silly bones, this "K" kid is about the funniest, wildest, craziest, animated sound effects guy we'll ever have....





Love ya Kolin Ross!!


And this guy here, who, no doubt, is our #1 heartbreaker...



Another day came and went and I have to use some time right now to play "catch-up" with some hats.
Have a great night everyone!!!

Hey Mother Nature, What's Up?

Hey Mother Nature..
What's going on?
Just a quick note to let you know that I've been having some serious tech issues with you these past couple of days and though I tried to overlook some of these seasonal problems since yesterday, I simply cannot tolerate today's totally unexpected....



40 FREAKIN' DEGREES!!!!!

This, I am sure is bound to cause unwanted virus's in all of our wimpy, thin blooded operating systems.
Please reboot and try again because to be quite frank here, this drop in temp is not supposed to happen until mid-January, maybe even February and definitely should never last more then a week or two.

This weather related outburst of yours is also causing extreme havoc on my so called "normal" daily routine. No longer am I able to flounder my way out of bed at first call. This crazy chill pill you've sent us is causing my rebellious, middle aged, brain to ignore all wake up calls to get out of bed. No amount of high octane coffee can tempt me to escape the quadruple pile blankets I now call my new BFFL's.
I've now graduated to a new grade of "It's too damn cold to be alive" cranky assness. My kids, sadly, feel the same way.

I do appreciate the fact that although we are freezing our Floridian buns off in the early hours of the morning, today we could throw our beloved flip-flops, shorts and t-shirts by 1 o'clock. That was a nice change from yesterday when you let that wind rip through our 18 layers of winter clothing, which BTW, is not real easy to purchase in Florida...what with bikini's and pool supplies still being sold on our Wal-Mart shelves.

Anywhos..if you could kindly bring back our 70 degree mornings and our 85 degree afternoons, I would really appreciate it, and so would everyone around me who is feeling the pinch of my hating to be cold, middle aged, rebel wannabe, cranky butt, soooooo much.

I do have to give you props and credit where credit is due, that sure was the most beautiful blue sky you sent here today. Keep up the good work girlfriend!

Sk8er Boy

I found this cool t-shirt for Kolin at target over the weekend, so before I let him wear it out to school tomorrow, we had to get some pic's...you know, before pizza sauce, cherry jello and chocolate milk gets in it. :0)





So, it appears I have totally jinxed myself by posting those water balloon photos because it is now FREEZING here!!!
No joke, when I woke up at 7 this morning it was only something like 46 degrees out and I don't think it got over 60 all day.
Tomorrow is supposed to be worse, I won't survive.
Thank goodness there is a small coffee shop called "The Urban Tea Room" right around the corner from my job, I'll be spending some time there, for sure, they sell Starbucks. ;0)

Hallie..guess what? We are running the heat!! Sorry, I sooo did not mean to brag, but you only have something like 4 more days of sufferin', right?

OK all, it's time to hunker down for the night. Hope ya'all had the best of days today. :0)

Three Little Punkins

Just trying to get into the Halloween spirit. :0)
Tomorrow, if everything goes OK...we'll be looking for a bigger one {or more!!} to carve up.

I'm not staying on long tonight...so I'll wish ya'all a wonderful night and we'll be catching up tomorrow.

After DH Update

Like, WOW!
Desperate Housewives sure did explain alot tonight, huh? Loved it!! :0)

I thought I'd jump on tonight to say "HEY" before it turned too late, because quite honestly, if midnight gets here and I'm still up, I am gonna hatin' myself in the morning.

So, Alona came for a visit today. Since she moved away and is in the first grade and has all these soooooo important after school activities and girl play date things going on, she doesn't have much in the way of time for me. :0(
LOL...ahhh, actually she plans on making more of an appearance every Sunday or so, so hopefully next Sunday she'll pose in her new Halloween tutu that she and I put together today but never had time to wear {her, not me!!}.

I did happen to snap this quick photo and then she was off again, climbing on Kody's fort and busting water balloons with Kolin...



Did I mention water balloons? LOL, yeppers..it's still warm enough during the afternoon. {{sorry}}





But...word has it we are supposed to start cooling down this week. :0)

Have a beautiful night everyone!!

After Midnight...

I said I'd post more pic's tomorrow and I figure, it's after midnight so it is tomorrow somewhere. :0)

Somemore Pre-Halloween pic's from tonight, Sting and Michael Myers...







OK, seriously...I'm off to get some sleep. :0)

Later Gators!!!
