I found this old clip while rummaging on my laptop the other day. How did my kid get so big?? Seems like just the other day I was peeking in her room looking at her little baby self. *sniff*.

Here we go a-wassailing among the...pumkins?
This Halloween was awesome! Corey and I took Iris to meet Crystal and her kids for some trick or treating. It was so fun to watch the kids getting a kick out of all the decorations and Crystal and I got to talk and catch up a bit as we were walking.
The kids and I got a little dose of Halloween tricks at one house: there was a note taped to the door. It was an apology saying that the home owners weren't there and asking trick or treaters to take a piece of candy from a dish sitting on a stuffed dummy. Crystal's boys and I were kinda crowded around the note trying to read it when the "dummy" sat straight up and handed us the bowl! I laughed so hard (after jumping about a foot)! We all got treats too, of course. There was a really cool lady at another house giving out some very much appreciated wassail. It not only tasted good but gave me a warm fuzzy that lasted till we all got indoors again. Wassail and candy corn go pretty well together, by the way :D!
So my favorite holiday has passed but I'm already looking forward to the christmas season. I don't mind the hustle and bustle and even though christmas is so commercialized it's still a familiar and comforting family event for me. Since I'm home now I'm hoping I might get a chance to paint a few christmas cards for friends and family. We'll see if that works out :). (I guess you'll know if you get a pretty un-Hallmark-like card in the mail!)
Till my next post, take care, and I'll type at cha later <3

Oh for the Blog of blogging...
Everyone's got a blog these days! Well, I guess that's good...the only way to get to know someone is to get to know someone. Through their blog! Yes, if you want me to get to know you then it seems you need a blog too. Hop on the Bloggetty band wagon why don't you? I like the Facey Book but you kinda only get the headlines of people's lives and not the newspaper. So I guess this is my own "newspaper"... SwedishLederHosen Gassette? He he. Bloggity blog. Where does the whole Swedish LederHosen thing come from. Ask Crystal.
Ok, so blogging's not so hard. Yet. Specially since there's not a whole lot to report today: Iris and I went to the library :). She's been really enjoying that lately and I've been enjoying checking out all the kids movies and copying them when I get home. (Aaar- there be a pirate in me library...) But you didn't hear that from me. What else am I going to do on such a cold day?! My laptop keeps me warm when all its processors are working on making new DVD's. Muahahahhaha.
