Halloween!

Hello!

How was your Halloween?  I had a lot of fun, and I hope you did too!  We got to carve pumpkins, roast pumpkin seeds, dress up, and trick-or-treat!  I carved 3 1/2 pumpkins.  One for me, one for our friend's shop (he wanted us to help decorate by carving pumpkins!), half of Lindsay's for our friend's shop, and Lindsay's 'personal pumpkin.'  I LOVE carving pumpkins, and I have been declared the family pumpkin carving expert!

McKenna from McKenna's Purple Sky came up with this really fun quiz about your Halloween.  So, I thought it would be fun to take it!  Here we go!

Halloween Questions from McKenna:

-Did you get a lot of candy?

Yes!!!


-What was your costume for Halloween?

Pajama Girl.  I wore fleece Hello Kitty PJs, rollers in my hair, a little sleeping mask, and some fun and funky slippers!


-Who did you trick-or-treat with?

My sister, mom, dad, and grandma.


-Did you carve a pumpkin?

Yes.


Do you like to eat pumpkin seeds?

Yes!  This year, we made a 'savory' batch and a 'sweet' batch.


Did you decorate your house?

Yes.  We did more of a harvest theme.


What is your favorite kind of candy?

CHOCOLATE!!!  My all time favorite are Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.


Did you get your favorite candy for Halloween?

Yes!  I got 8 Reese's!


Did anything scary happen to you?  If so, what happened?

Not really...

Thanks, McKenna!  That was so much fun!  Here are some Halloween pictures:

Lindsay and I trading candy after trick-or-treating.  We like to trade every year.  If there's something I like of Lindsay's, then I try to make her a deal with my candy to get it; vice versa.  We have a lot of fun with that!

I would love to hear about your Halloween!  Have a great night!

The Wind in the Willows ~ On a Monday

Hello!

Thank you so much to my new friend, Jenny!

How do you like my Halloween blog design?  I think it's a lot of fun!

So, Storyteller posted "The Wind in the Willows" today.  Here we go:

1. Do you want to watch The Odd Life of Timothy Green--if you haven't already--?  And if you did watch it, why did you not or why did you like it?

Yes, I would like to watch it.

2. Are you excited for The Hobbit?

???????

3. Do you know what Pinterest really is?  If you do, explain it, please.

I think Pinterest is basically an online bulletin board that you 'Pin' pictures on that you like.

4. What would be your ideal job?

I'm not sure yet.

5. Who is the person that you've gotten to know the most (who you don't already know) through blogger?

I'm not sure...

6. What is your favorite story?  (Bible stories don't count, the Bible doesn't count, etc.)

Are you kidding me???  That is waaaaaaaay too hard!!!  I read so many books, and I have so many favorites!

7. What's your favorite blog name?

I don't know!  I like lots of blog names!

8. Why did you choose your blog name that you have currently?

I chose it because my blog is about my life, and I really like the Bon Jovi song "It's My Life."

9. Have you ever changed your blog name?  And if so, why?

I have never changed my blog name.

10. Do you like Riley Poole from National Treasure ("Delicious jams and jellies??") better or Samwise Gamgee from The Lord of the Rings ("I can't carry the ring, but I can carry you!") better?

I have never seen TLOTR, but I HAVE seen National Treasure, and I LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!!!!  So, Riley Poole.  (BTW, Riley is HILARIOUS!!!)

Thanks, Storyteller!  Those were great questions, and I had a lot of fun!  Have a great night!
