This Halloween season has been fun. The problem is that it is arriving at the speed of light. It just seems I found most of my things and...it is over in just a couple of days. But what fun I've had...
I just need a wee more energy...
This time, just a few days ago or so it seems...I was busy getting seven little ones ready for trick or treating..then came the Grandchildren...and now even they are all grown up. Some having their own children and some still in college. Only one in highschool..and soon it will be over for him.
No matter...I will continue to do Halloween, and Thanksgiving, and Christmas and Valentines and St. Patricks and Easter and the 4th of July...to the end.
My Mom stopped..will I? I wonder...
My favorite Halloween cat...probably because he scares me?
Just stuff....this is not a good picture of my hand made crow..but he really IS a work of art. He is all sculpted with stitching...and then mounted on a post.
5 to 6 inch cookies. Impressive? :)
Just one filled the candy dish...bless it's heart!
A cup of hot tea and one of these and you won't want dinner. I promise!
Daughter Mary is my cookie maker.
Small cookies. Pumpkin, as you can plainly see..and..a tombstone..and a black cat and a moon...
Now this is my all time favorite thing..pumpkin to be precise. His arms and legs are roots..and he is all hand sculpted with stitching...Ohhh...how I wish I could do things like this!
I might...but..why when I can find such great artists that do them so beautifully.
I hang on to what used to be. I don't necessarily think that is a bad thing. It's just the treasuring of memories of time gone by. It's ok.
It's been a beautiful Fall and I hope I see many more of them.
I have been enjoying all of your beautiful Fall photo's of your Halloween decor..new babies, and some fantastic Holidays. If you haven't met Joyce at October Farm..please go by and see her recent trip to Salem MA. I was fascinated...and tomorrow on Saturday I must post a most beautiful card she sent me that she made herself.
What a time is all is....what a time! Makes me want to sing and dance under the moon..and if I could, I would! Ok...I kidding around! Sorta....
Love and hugs..
Mona
