Halloween, Halloween, Halloween!

Halloween is over and I am pretty bummed. I had a lot of spooky fun this year though. I got to dress up for work all month, eat tasty treats, hand out candy at the mall to trick-or-treaters, and see my friends. I have said it before and I will say it again, what isn't there to love about Halloween!!

Spooky Treats-
I could not get enough fall flavors for Halloween this year! I had many delicious Caramel apple ciders, they were so tasty! Spooky cat cookies were a must for the holiday. Even the frozen yogurt shop got in the spirit and had pumpkin flavored froyo! Nom nom nom!!!

Horror Decor-

What is Halloween without all the decorations??!! Little boy Pi and I went to Emma Crumbies and got some nice little pumpkins. I didn't get to carve any pumpkins this year. I did get a Halloween Micheal Myers tribute tattoo with my dad, our matching kitchen knives. I decorated my room with pumpkins, bats, and skulls and cuddled up to watch Walking Dead. My movie collection didn't grow this year, but I will have to check the Halloween clearance.

Dress up-
Pilot as a giraffe
Vintage Lady

Chaplin & Misty
Cow Kitty Pumpkin
80's
So many McGrubbers...
Dressed as my manager, Pam!
I just love dressing up for Halloween!! Of course I thought of like 20 more ideas of things to dress up as, guess I will just have to wait till next year. What were your favorite costumes this year?

Till next year Halloween...

Blissful Fall

Fall is easily my favorite season, and over the past few years October has become one of my favorite months. I have always loved Halloween, but the rest of October never seemed much different than the rest of fall. I learned it is the best time in fall.The past few years the weather has been delightful through October and it is when things are so pretty and finally feeling the fall spirit.


 The colors of fall are so beautiful! I have been trying to spend as much time outside or at least admiring nature as I can. Sunny days make all the colors of the leaves pop and the sky seems more blue this time of year. I got a nice fall inspired manicure with an autumn red and pumpkin orange glitter colors.
Of course another fall favorite is the flavors of fall! I have been having all kinds of pumpkin fraps, coffees, and pastries! I love going to coffee shops extra this time of year to get fall flavors and enjoy the atmosphere and read/do homework. Halloween has been popping up everywhere and I couldn't be more thrilled! I am like a little kid in a candy store when I hit up Halloween isles. There is even Halloween art up at the coffee hag! Also since leaves have changed and started to fall I think it is about time to rack up a pile and jump in it!
With the change of season came a self change. I cut off my hair and dyed it ombre! I have never had hair so light before. It was a good change for the season and for my life changes.
 Top- Urban Outfitters
Card- H&M
Pants- Heartbreaker
Shoes- Urban Outfitters
I have been working the denim trend a lot this fall. I like the mixing of denims also. I am really into my pink jeans as well. Colored pants are fun to had a little twist to an outfit.
Top- Forever21
Scarf-China
Belt- Forever21
Jeans- Heartbreaker
I have also been working sweaters this fall! This is a lighter one, but they are so simple yet make the whole outfit. Scarfs are always big too. Fall is a great time for layers and pattern mixing.

What are your fall favorites?

Happy Halloween!

Happy Meowlloween!!!

Weekend Wrap up!

It was Halloween weekend this past weekend! One of my favorite weekends of the year! This Friday the family all got together to carve pumpkins. 



 On Saturday it was the second year Mark and I had a Halloween party. We get the house all decorated and have our friends over for drinks and fun. The night went so fast I was bummed when it was over. I also didn't get to take many pictures this year because I was distracted talking to people. Hopefully others have some good ones I can steal! This year I was Wonder Woman and Mark was Where's Waldo!




I kept my make-up pretty simple for my costume. I used Elf cover up powder, pure lux and manic panic eye shadows, glitter, Kendra hairspray, and cover girl lip stick.
Wonder Woman Make-up

  On Sunday it was my little cousins first communion, I am one of his godmothers. Then after the family, mark, and I all went to get breakfast at Busters! Yum! The rest of my Sunday was pure bliss. Mark and I did a quick clean up of the house and then laid in bed and watched Vikes football. We also made apple crisp, grilled cheese, and tomato soup! The delicious flavors of fall all in one meal. Finally we watched the new episode of the Walking Dead and The Thing!


The Apple Crisp is so tasty and easy to make. You just buy the box mix and then you just need butter and the apples. We used Honey Crisp, they are my favorite! It bakes for about 30 mins and then you put some ice cream on it and enjoy! All and all it was such a fun and cozy weekend with loved ones!
Hope everyone else had just as fab Halloween Weekend!

Horror Movie Quote #3

"It's Halloween, everyone's entitled to one good scare." - Sheriff Brackett

This is from the original 1978 Halloween movie! This is by far one of my favorite classic horror films! I am really into the old slasher movies. I just watched this with Mark while we carved our pumpkins. It has also been on AMC fear fest a lot too!

My Spooky Friday

My night started off with me doing some homework at the Coffee Hag. I had a yummy Bee's Knees drink (honey, butter cream flavor, and steamed milk)!
Then my aunt, Channa, called so we could get together and have Halloween fun. We went to the party store, Michaels crafts, and Peir One. I found so many cute things at Peir One!




A cute strawberry dish! It was on sale for $10!!! But I have no money until pay day tomorrow. These cute serving dishes with tiny spoons and stacked matching tea cups with tiny plates, GLITTER Halloween decorations (cats, bats, and pumpkins!), and these adorable pumpkin salt and pepper shakers! I can't wait to have my own little cozy home to decorate. Also I think I want to start collecting salt and pepper shakers, they are just so cute!
I got some Halloween crafts to do while my aunt worked on her costume (a witch doctor). I painted a tiny coffin and my frakin-buddy! I also bought a pretty white ceramic skull! We watched a Mystery Science Theater and Dawn of the Dead. We snacked on popcorn and beer cheese soup. All and all it was a nice calm evening.

Bats and Bubbles

I decided to send my foster siblings (they live in CO with my mom and step dad) a little Halloween package! I went to target and found some spooky ooky fun. I bought little bats, bubbles, some Halloween pencils, orange and purple notebooks, spooky socks, cards, and two picture frames with a picture of me and each of them. Also baby pumpkins but those aren't in the picture.

It was so fun shopping for my foster siblings I wanted to make all my friends a little Halloween basket. Why can't Halloween be like easter where we get a little basket of goodies? Here are some pictures of other fun Halloween things I found!
Scary Skulls! Ekk



GLITTER!!!

Clearly I love glitter! These are all cute little gifts for people who love Halloween! I like bats, skulls, and pumpkins! And cats of course! What would you want in your Halloween basket?
