Halloween Costume Ideas/New Desk/Back to School

OK so the title of this facinating entry in my blog pretty much sums it up.

Halloween Costume Ideas: So I was reading over on Confessions of a Coupon Junkie that she is already working on a paid Halloween costume. Which made me think that I really need to think about what the kids are going to dress up as this year. The best part about Halloween is that my twins (Liam & Carly) birthday is on Halloween. So it is pretty fun to think of twin outfits for them. Last year they were Thing 1 and Thing 2 with their older brother Parker playing The Cat In The Hat.

Below is a rare rare picture of my children. I don't make it a habit of posting pictures of them online because there are some crazy stalker people out there. But if they have something bad to say about my cute Trick & Treat they can kiss my...you know what.


So now I need to start thinking about something cute and fun for this year. Since their birthday is Halloween we don't do a big party. We figure dressing up, eating candy and staying up late is party enough.

So I am looking for suggestions from any one that still happens to read my boring blog. LOL. Some ideas I have had is "Super Twins" (they have dubbed themselves this), Raggedy Ann & Andy, and Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum. That is all I have come up with yet.

New Desk: I ordered a new desk today from Office Depot. I get most of my office supplies there and they gave me a rewards card the other day in the mail, plus you know I had a coupon. And I was really in the market for a new desk. Looking forward to getting it delivered and set up. My old desk is starting to look pretty junky and really no matter if I declutter it once a week it gets pretty clutterd with all the coupon stuff, buisness stuff, and just STUFF! The new desk is an armoire type so that I can close it all up and contain the clutter. I will post before and after picture in a future post. Fun fact: Did you know that the smallest Office Depot location is in Gillette, Wyoming? Yeah that is what they told me today at the Gillette Office Depot. LOL

Back to School: Kids go back to school on Tuesday! Can we say ParTAY at my house! I am going to be running around tomarrow getting the last few things the kids need. Mostly stuff for Hannah since we just got her school supply list on Friday. I think we are just about stocked but there were a few things we need like 3 inch binders instead of the 1 1/2 inch ones I got on sale. And then I am debating on if I am going to get Parkers hair cut or not. He has mad curly blonde hair and I just love them. And am wondering what it would look like if I just let it grow long. Probably NOT going to cut it. But am debating it.

So that is about it in my life. Been working like a dog on behind the scenes stuff at HCW but it never feels like I am going to get caught up. PM's are crazy and I am way behind on them. But I love my work and wouldn't change for a million bucks....well maybe for 5 million. LOL
