Hey guys,

so its been a while since Ive posted last but I've been inspired to tonight as I work on this years costume. I just wanted to throw in my two lil cents on how to make a great expensive looking costume that cost practically nothing. For years I would spend anywhere from $100 to $200 hundred dollars on my Halloween costume and for what, to end up with a couple of yards of material (cheap material at that) that barely made it through the nights festivities Then one day I ...

Ok so its not secret that I do a Haunt and throw a party but Im not sure Ive shared that my younger son has always been my partner in crime so to speak, my sidekick haunter.

Now dont get me wrong I am still mom and trust me they will still need me as much as they ever did even in college but I wont be spending as much time car pooling and traveling to competitions, and what not so I figure I have an opportunity to to start finding myself again, so to speak.
Now to back track one ...

Ok well I decided I would try this blog thingy. So I am 42 now and have two teenagers at home and was thinking back on how quickly they have grown the other night. It got me to thinking that while my older one is getting ready to start the next chapter in his life...in a way so am I. I have spent that last 17 years being mom which I love I stayed at home when they were smaller and did all the typical stay at home mom stuff.
