a word from our sponsor . . .


This week there was a photo challenge to post pictures of Halloween decorations. I figured it was time to share a group of witches that have been around our house for a long time (and no, dear husband, I'm not referring to me, my mom and sister....) but the Sanderson Sisters. They are cheap dime-store decorations that the kids immediately labeled as such after watching Hocus Pocus. While photographing them I remembered watching this for the first time on the Disney Channel when Allyson was about 18 months old. Back in the days when the Disney Channel was about cartoons and Disney movies, all without commercial breaks. I miss when you could watch a show without some little logo popping up in the corner of the screen, which has graduated to little people from the next show walking across the bottom of the screen and now commercials about characters of one show making fun of their little bodies walking across the bottom of the screen during their commercial about their show (which is probably currently on). and we wonder why there is an increase in the diagnosis of attention-deficit-disorder. whew!

  2. How fun! I love the tradition here...and that your kids started it! Your caramel apple shot is wonderful, Nicki. Did you make those?

  3. Thanks Pat - I did make the caramel apples. Probably won't again because while they look fun and yummy - too many braces among the crowd of kids and honestly, they were a pain.

  5. These are so adorable! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who names her decorations! I agree with you about all the advertisements on TV. They are very, very distracting. I hardly watch TV anymore, in part because of the constant barrage of ads.

  10. Oh my gosh - I'd have to actually pull mine out of the closet to photograph them. How did it get to be the 31st already?!?!?! That first photo is so neat!
