I think I want one for everyone in my family! Sam is not interested in dressing up this year, so I'm making a point to teach him about Reformation Day and he can advertise it at our church's thing-a-ma-jig.... fall festival. Then I told Wade and I think we need them too. Anyhoo.... let me know and if you are, I need to order them. Thanks! Hope all is well with you and your boys! They are so cute!Tracihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18100441427058350537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-49648218597458277702008-10-18T08:21:00.000-05:002008-10-18T08:21:00.000-05:00Quick question:Do you try and match your necklaces...Quick question:<BR/>Do you try and match your necklaces with your outfits??? Or do you make them a focal point, something that POPS?<BR/>On the yard stuff....I'm so happy to live in a country that doesn't know what the word "politically correct" means!!! Everyone(grocery stores, Gov. buildings(minus the US EMb., of course), city corners) puts out Nativity scenes at Christmas!!! It's delightful!!! There's not too much money here to waste on anything else--it would be a waste to these folks with all the poverty here. I'm glad to be surrounded by people who still believe in why we celebrate Christmas(even if they don't practice Christ the rest of the year). <BR/>Also, whatever happened to making the house look great with beautiful lights???!!!lishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02386331578126721246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-18928994460658318802008-10-16T20:06:00.000-05:002008-10-16T20:06:00.000-05:00Good advice, Mandy :) I need direction like that-...Good advice, Mandy :) I need direction like that--I'm so clueless so i just avoid accessories altogether. <BR/><BR/>And I agree with you about SBD--I think the structure of WW is what I need right now.

Mainly because I believe I do better with portion control of all foods, than restrictions of WHAT TYPE of foods I can eat. The exercise part still sucks, either way.<BR/><BR/>2) I also have a big problem with neclaces, bracelets and earrings, if they're all worn at once. I am a big believer in Coco Chanel's advice to look in the mirror before you head out the door and remove one accessory, because you probably put on too many.<BR/>One thing to consider when you try on necklaces are proportion. As a taller girl, with a longer neck, I can wear chunkier necklaces to my collar bone, and choker length, but delicate chains tend to disappear and longer necklaces get lost in the cleavage. <BR/>Maybe you need to look at the weight, length and texture of what you're trying on. Same with bracelets.<BR/><BR/>And NEVER wear a necklace if you are wearing chandelier, dangle, or big hoop earrings..way too busy a look that confuses the eye. You want to draw attention up to focus on one outstanding feature.Mandy Crowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966793475516238827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-67108897853004037092008-10-16T16:48:00.000-05:002008-10-16T16:48:00.000-05:00oh dear, about yard crap . . . i hate it.driving t...oh dear, about yard crap . . . i hate it.<BR/><BR/>driving thru town the other day, i nearly had a wreck b/c someone had a person hanging from a tree, a joke, but hanging. on 21st street, from a 400,000 home. <BR/><BR/>sick.hilarylarsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16378456893589821624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-90811358476736495462008-10-16T12:55:00.000-05:002008-10-16T12:55:00.000-05:00Roxanne--Ok, for Alex, I'll be OK with it.

Why? Alex LOVES it!! Just one, and it is fairly small, so hopefully you will still send me a Chrsitmas card. You do send Christmas cards, right? ;)<BR/><BR/>Yeah for WW!!! I go on Tuesdays at 10 in Humble and Jennifer is the BEST instructor in the world.

Althou...I'm right there with you on the yard crap. Although I have gotten used to it since for the past 12 years I've seen 2 neighbors (who are related to each other) yards get more and more stuff in them every year. When we drive by their houses this time of year and especially at Christmas Connor says, "Whoa, look at all the stuff." I'll try to get a picture just for you!! :-)ValerieOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03501631495702577437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-62245129182967905752008-10-15T20:52:00.000-05:002008-10-15T20:52:00.000-05:00Hmmm...

My husband says it's not (love him!) but I think it is. I'll buy cute ones, plan an outfit to wear it with, then put it on and take it off. I hate that I'm that way.. any help you get on that one, I'd be glad to hear!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I'm sorry to say, I'm a yard crap junkie!! But I usually stay very traditional. No blow-ups, no disney people.. usually a cut out of the nativity.Rachel www.jackandcoledesigns.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03729384991038687946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-82396648135413002512008-10-15T18:41:00.000-05:002008-10-15T18:41:00.000-05:00Lis--ooh, I'm intrigued.

Keep it simple people. Especially Halloween. What on earth is so appealing about a holiday that cebrates death and blood? I plan to blog about it, stay tuned. And, incidentally, I don't get the it's its thing. Because when other words are possessive, we use apostrophes (like "going to my mom's house"). Right? I'm confused.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06720116398525366695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28541038.post-84180181796087401432008-10-15T15:21:00.000-05:002008-10-15T15:21:00.000-05:00you've given me several things to think upon...get...you've given me several things to think upon...get back with you on one of them.lishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02386331578126721246noreply@blogger.com
