It's Party Time! Let's Dare to Share!

It's Friday night, and you know what that means.. 
It is time to Dare to Share! 

Happy Friday! 

No, I did not get a new kitten, but we did have a few furry little friends visit the daycare today. I used to have an orange and white cat years ago. He was a wonderful kitty! I was partial to this sweet baby, but we already have two large dogs and two older cats so it is not the right time to get a new kitten. 

 I saw this fun coloring book at the Dollar Tree today.  The reason why I am posting it is we are going to be going on a short vacation soon.  The problem is, we can not decide where we are going to go.  I would love to go back to Lake Michigan like we did five years ago.  D wants to go to some place where we have not been before.  I am sure we will figure it out, and once we do I will probably share about where we went.  

Over the last few weeks, I have been buying and collecting a lot of items for this years Halloween DIYs.   I made these spooky skeleton hands last year with just a few items from the Dollar Tree. What is great about this DIY is it can be turned into Grinch hands which just a few changes.  I will be posting my DIYs on the blog which I will hopefully be starting to put together next week.   If you would love to see all of my Halloween finds and DIYS  on social media, you can follow me on Instagram or TIK TOK.  

Well it looks like it is time to get this party started.  Link up and HAVE FUN!

Happy Friday!

I know it is still August, but Halloween items are popping up everywhere.  So much so the new name for August is Augtober.  I am currently on the hunt for a couple of Halloween items.  There is a ghost at Marshalls that is holding a can of Coca Cola (my fav) and a ghost mirror at Dollar Tree. I did end up finding some really cute items, but not the ones I am looking for so far. I really love the cute ghost that is pictured, but it's a bit more than I want to spend.  I am hoping I will have luck finding the items I am looking for this weekend.

 This weekend we are visiting Michigan to see my friends at the dance, and to see my kids tomorrow.  It is a bit later than planned to get the party posted because there was a problem with the first reservation at the a hotel nearby.  They do not have an attendant on the premises but you have to connect on an online person.   D waited several minutes for the attendant to become available, and then she was not able to find a room to match our online reservation.  While the price was good, we probably won't go back because the online check was more complicated than it needed to be and we have to get a refund if his card is charged.  We were lucky enough to find another hotel nearby and get a nice room.  

Did you see the full moon tonight? D got a really good photo while we were at the dance.  I tried to take one on my phone, but all you can see is a yellow blur.  I didn't really take many pictures tonight.  I will have to make sure to take a lot more this weekend. 

Well it is getting very late, so I need to get this party started.  Link up and HAVE FUN!

I stopped by Dollar General today after work. They are having a special clearance sale, and I knew that some of their Halloween items have arrived. I was so excited when I saw this display.  This Halloween the colors will definitely be pink, purple and teal. I know it is not traditional for Halloween, but I love those colors. 

If you have been to Walmart recently, their Summerween line also has similar colors.  If you decorate for Halloween do you do traditional colors, scary decor or trendy, like the colors this year? 

This week I have been getting ready for a mid August event, by making some batches of cookie dough to freeze.  Next week we will start baking the cookies and then decorating.  I am trying to figure out what theme of cookies I want to make for mid August.  Anyone have any ideas?  

Has anyone had car trouble this week?  The reason why I am asking is one of our cars broke down, and one of my besties was in a car accident early in the week. (she was not at fault)  Another friend had an accident  last weekend. (she was not at fault either)   With three cars out of commission in such a short time, it made me wonder. Hmm.. 

Quick update on D's back from what I shared last week.  He is doing much better this week.  He has seen a chiropractor the last couple of weeks which has really helped.  He is walking normally again with only occasional back pain. 

Well it is getting late, and I have a busy day tomorrow, so I better get this party started.  Link up and HAVE FUN!
