Happy Halloween

Our Halloween Books
We are waiting for daddy to get home from work early today. We are going to St Rose to see their cousins in their costume parade and then out for a little trick or treating. This will be Moe and Coles first time out. Right now Moe is walking around with Cinderellas headband and glass slippers on. He's tried a few times to get the dress on. He has his choice of an army man, Woody from Toy Story, a Pirate, Bob the Builder and Spider man. He has no interest in any of them, just Cinderella.

Dinner and a Show in NY

A few times a year we have a girls night out in NY. Yesterday we went to see Grease and then to dinner at Carmines. The food was outrageous. If your ever in NY you have to eat at Carmines. It's by reservation only. The portions are so enormous most of us took food home. It's family style and the pasta platters contain a whopping pound and half of pasta.
I think we had 30 to 34 people. We had so many people we had to have two tables. Each table got a Titanic for dessert. The thing was so huge. We could have easily gotten only one for all of us.
We are already making plans to see The Little Mermaid next.

Battle of Monmouth before and after



I really shouldn't be playing around with these old images. I have so many other things I should be doing. I'm kind of in a funk right now. We have all been sick and it's been raining for days. We haven't really left the house all week.

recreating

For 15 years I worked at a professional photo lab. I used to restore old photographs- among other things. Now when I get the chance I play around recreating that old weathered look that I spent so many years eliminating from photographs.

ahhh.....15 WONDERFUL years !!

My husband called me from work today to wish me a Happy Anniversary. He's such a wonderfully, thoughtful guy. I love him so much. 15 years together! Sometimes it amazes me that it's been 15 years already.
BUT-After 15 years you would think he would remember the date we got married. Today is not our anniversary.
So, honey try again in two days.
