I'm taking the day off from work. At least from the full time job.
I needed a quiet day at home to catch up on laundry and vacuuming. As of now the laundry is done except for the guest sheets, and the vacuuming, well, we'll see what happens.
I've decided to splurge and take myself up to Omaha for a one on one with my favorite stylist Shannon. She listens well and isn't afraid to shoot down any poor ideas I have for my hair. Hopefully it will comeout perfect this time. At any rate, it has to be better. This cut is getting pretty shaggy.
I can feel the pressure for the holiday season beginning. The first pressure is for Alaina's Halloween costume. I've got a couple of fun ideas, and a few from friends. I was hoping to let Alaina pick what she wants to be, which will probably entail taking her to the sewing store and showing her pattern pictures.
My top picks right now are:
-Cinderella and I could be the fairy godmother.
-Stitch or Lilo because we have a stuffed Stitch that she could carry. But I wouldn't really have a costume to wear for this.
- Frog because she likes to hop
- Pony because she likes to gallop
I really like the idea of Cinderella, but I figure maybe the grop or pony because She'll want to be a princess for the next 16 years, so why not go for something different now?
Wait did you hear that? The vacuum just screamed my name. I'd better get moving.

My vacuum has been screaming at me since last night. It's still sitting by the piano unused. Poor thing.
I think the frog or pony are great ideas. I agree that she will want to be a princess forever so let it be different for now.
I still haven't got a clue what to have my kids be. UGH. More money to spend.
Brenna wants to be a black and pink cat, so we're thinking puppy for Mason. But I totally use store-bought costumes. We may improvise and make Brenna's this year, since black sweats can be the base. The puppy, I'm totally buying.
My grandma's sewing machine is an OLD metal Singer. With a really old instruction manual. It would be fun to figure out how to use it, I just have to find the time.
Hello!?!? How about a nice Disney costume? Sissy might be able to mail one to you for pretty cheap....
