In a child's mind...

Conversation between me and my 5 year old:

Brooklynn: “Mom, what does waffle mean"?

Me: "Well, I don't know what waffle means but you know what a waffle is".

Brooklynn: "Noooo. What does waffle MEAN? You know, like a "waffle wedded wife""?

Me: Loud, boisterous laughter for several minutes. "You mean "lawful wedded wife"!

Aren't kids great!!!

booooo

We had a blast at our annual Trunk-or-Treat party last night. This year we had a chili pot-luck followed by

candy-apple decorating for the kids. However, it was quite

cold and rainy so we had to forego our usual trunk-or-treat in the parking lot and opt for a trick-or-treat up and down the church hall. Brooklynn said her favorite part was decorating her apple and if Isabelle could talk, I'm sure she would say that her favortie part was running away from me to go begging for candy from all the adults. :~) She finally got the wrapper off of her lollipop and was lovin' life!!

Happy Fall Y'all

Brooklynn was feeling a little jealous and neglected lately so we decided to have a Mommy-Daughter date. I've always wanted to check out the "Boo at the Zoo" in Knoxville, so we decided to check it out together. I wasn't that impressed, but Brooklynn enjoyed herself...which is the whole point. But most of all, I think/hope she enjoyed the one-on-one time we had together.

Lorna actually made this costume for her daughters like 20 years ago and recently passed it down to Brooklynn. I just added some wings, a wand and put glitter and jewels on Brooklynn's face and...VIOLA...a Beautiful Fairy!

Brooklynn always enjoys the camel rides!

Here is the "Haunted Carousel" that went backwards!!! Ooooooooo, scary!!!

The next morning was our 3rd annual visit to the Pumkin Patch with Michael & Garret. It's become a special tradition where both of my girls were present...even though WE didn't know it!

*2006~I was 3 weeks pregnant with Izzy & didn't know it yet.

*2007~Our 2nd trip to The P. Patch and this time Izzy got to experience it outside of the womb!

*2008~Our 3rd trip and it just gets better every year. Aren't these kids just precious?!

Going, Going, Gone...

As many of you know, I have decided to scale back

on my Mary Kay inventory this year and am selling my inventory at 50-70% off!! I really just had way too big of an inventory to only be working at it part time. The eye shadows and blushes are discontinued since the company has chaged their formula and the shape of the packaging. In fact, the new colors wont fit into the "old" compacts, requiring you to buy NEW compacts...so now is a good time to stock up on your favorite colors that will still fit into your current compacts.

Here is a general list of the items I have left: Medium & Full Coverage Foundations, Eyesicles Eye Color, Crème to Powder Foundation, Day Radiance Foundation, Concealer, Blush, Eye Shadows, Eye & Brow Liner, Lipsticks, Lip Gloss, Satin Lips Set, TimeWise Lip Primer, Mirrors, Gift Bags, Gift Sets, “Look” Sample Cards, Gift Mug.

Email me for a full list of colors. Please pass the message on to fellow Mary Kay addicts!
