Just in case you haven't seen the new offerings at SPoOky TiMe JiNglEs....you must hurry and check out the fantastic art. The talent is off the charts and I love all the creativeness. Remember there is only one more update until Christmas, so don't let these wonderful holiday collectibles get away. Thanks for all who snatched up my goodies, I am thankful they are going to new homes. Here is a picture of my new ornies, if interested I am taking orders, just few though. Momma elf needs to prepare for her own little ones. My littlest asked for a pink one, so I off to my workshop.
Have a great weekend......more pics soon and a special swap I will be unveiling~ hugs!
How they grow so fast....now my son is in middle school and he has changed so much from the little boy who wanted to wear capes and be a super hero. Have a good evening~
Alex and I preparing our pumpkins......
The whole gang proud of their masterpieces!!
The whole family before we went trick or treating. My husband was Forest Gump.....run Forest run!!!I was his hippy girlfriend, Jenny. I even found a vintage 60's dress on Ebay. My son was a dead Cub fan still waiting for them to win the world series. My middle daughter was a sweet baker. I bought the cupcake apron from Garboodles.....scrumptious!! Our littlest was a pink, of course pink, gypsy pirate girl, sparkles and all. We had a blast trick or treating, a bit cold, but when candy is involved.......there is nothing holding back our kids getting candy. Here is a witch passing out candy from her caldron.........BAWHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!! 
Running from house to house.....
Smiling faces.....candy bags are full!!! 
My hubby and I having a good time......peace!!
Forrest Gump and Charlie Brown........so fun!!
Stairway to Heaven and Highway to Hell.......very creative. On his stairs, he had an ipod playing both these songs!! We had so much fun and each year I am amazed at how creative and funny people are.....some are creepy, but lots and lots of imagination.
This little sweet is an original from Colleen Moody....I just adore her face.
These two figures remind me of my daughter, a Lori Mitchell reproduction and a creative Noodle and Lou original. So fun!! Next, is another fantastic original from Sam I Am, this reminds me of my sweet Alex too, so sweet :)
Here is one of my fall birdies with a nest full of pumpkins......

So, I officially stopped running outside, I know I said that last week, but we had three days of good weather this week, so I took advantage. I took some pictures of the flowers on the trail. I also took a picture of a beautiful river cottage house. This quaint little house has great big beautiful urns of flowers and one unusual pet. Her name is Rhonda. She is an African tortouise. She is beautiful. No, I don't live in the desert, but this family has one. She doesn't need water since she is from Africa. They bring out a baby pool once a week and fill it with water.....this is the only time she needs to use the potty. I see her on my daily runs, but for now I will miss her till spring as both of us can not stand the cold weather......brrrr!!
Look at the scale of these urns....they are HUGE!! Look in the grass, Rhonda is by the urn closest to the house. She is the size of your car tire...with spikes....lol!
Jolly Santa's on vintage doorknobs they wibble wobble back and forth...so fun and folky!
You can find these at 
Sold! Thank you!
Getting things done seems to be my downfall lately. My daughter has pneumonia and it's just been hard to get my daily tasks done, whether it's laundry, cleaning in general or finishing up some art pieces. She has been getting better, but it's been a tough three weeks. Thank goodness our family isn't fussy and we have been doing a lot of soups, hot sandwiches, homemade chicken salads.....and toast. I haven't run in over a week, I hope to go tomorrow. Tomorrow will she will go back to school, she is so anxious and BORED at home. We have done lots of shrinky dinks, reading and doing homework, because I have made weekly trips to keep her caught up. We are off today for Columbus Day, so our house is still in our comfy cozy pj's......it's cold here. So much for that Indian summer. I did score some finds at our local goodwill store. I bought wool sweaters from England, the fisherman's cable ones and I plan to make some pillows. I also found a wool coat, a long mid calf one for me. It's a lovely soft teal. I will snap pictures soon, it's at the cleaners right know.....I cant wait to wear it, plus it was only $7.00.....whooo!!
I also have two black birds, one with a pumpkin and the other with a festive striped party hat. They have striped wire legs and are on vintage childrens blocks. The one's that were colored blue, red and yellow. I used to play with those blocks for hours making castles. That dates me, I am sure. Cost is $28 for each....that also includes free flights to you! Enjoy!! 
Lastly, is a trio of Halloweenies....a witch, kitty and ghost. They are on vintage blocks too, which reads "BOO". They are not quite done, some details are missing. The witch and ghost are carrying paper treat bags and all aready for some yummy treats. The cost of this trio is 150$ and that includes their journey to your home. I can email more pics when they are finished, I will be posting them here too.
