2. Real tree or Artificial? My family used to always go pick out a big ol, real tree and it smelled great.. but always died of course! I still love real trees but right now Tim and I have an artificial 3- footer from Wal-Mart. He didn't want a big tree- Ba Humbug!
3. When do you put up the tree? As soon after Thanksgiving as we get to it!

HaLlOwEeN!



Why am I so bad at blogging? Oh, I don't know, probably because I don' t like it much! Now that it's almost Christmas I figure it's about time I got some Halloween pictures up here! We had my nephew's birthday party we dressed up for and then on Halloween we also went to Tim's aunt's party and went and saw some Thriller action put on in a nearby neighborhood with some friends. Another successful year of forcing Tim to dress up and winning a prize for our awesome costumes. I was a Flapper Girl and Tim was a gangster/mafia man? Why does he always complain when I always make him look SO GOOD?!

This isn;t working out.. it's not you it's me

You may be asking yourself why you never get the the privilege, nay, joy of reading new posts from me. Well, truth be told I am currently on strike because I've written a couple of posts and I can never get the pictures to post with them because our internet is too slow..
