Halloween 2014

How's that for an original title??!

Halloween this year was so much fun! It was the first year that i've lived in a house in a neighborhood and have been able to pass out candy! Actually it was my first year EVER passing out candy! Growing up in the boondocks no one comes trick or treating to your house. I wasn't quite sure what to expect but I did enjoy it! And next year, I will buy more candy :)

 For my outfit this year I dressed up as Penelope Garcia from Criminal Minds! It should be noted that I didn't have to buy a single part of my outfit, which is either embarrassing or a good thing. I am still finding sequins and sparkles throughout my house.
 I found these spider web tights that I had never opened or worn and thought they were perfect!
 Oh Derek Morgan, you are so so dreamy!!!
 Making the world a safer place, one bad guy at a time.

I dressed up on Weds this year and not the actual day of Halloween, because one of my students was dressing up as Dr Spencer Reid, also from Criminal Minds. Alas, she got stuck at school with a spelling competition (how fitting is that??!!) and wasn't able to get her costume at home before coming to her lesson. #sadness
 On Halloween Day these two cuties changed in their vehicle before coming to their after school lesson! I LOVED IT!!! they were SO cute!! And I'm dying, DYING, over the cowgirl's pose.
That evening as I was passing out candy I was SO excited to have another one of my students who lives nearby come to my house to trick or treat! Isn't she adorable?! I mean that cheese face, I love it!! It should be noted that it was beyond cold and SNOWED on Halloween, yes, snow, so pretty much everyone's costumes were paired with coats and cold weather attire. this little cutie was a pink skeleton.

All in all I had a fun Halloween and enjoyed passing out candy! My neighborhood has a large amount of 8-12 year old boys and every single one of them was dressed in a scary outfit, 90% with a freaky mask. I may or may not have yelped a little bit each time I opened the door to one of their freaky mask faces.

Shockingly, I only saw 3 Elsa's.

I blame it on the cold weather and less than large trick or treating crowds.

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
