Hoo are you? #19

HOOOOOOOOO ARE YOU?
HOOOO HOOOO!

Helllloooo fellow HOOOOOTS! Welcome to another week of 
HOO ARE YOU?

Thanks to Robyn from Craft With Me for all the questions you will be seeing for the next several months!


Here are this week's question? 

1.What was your favorite meal growing up?
2. What's your favorite month?
3. What store is most represented in your wardrobe?
4. How many times do you go to the movie theater each month/year?
5. Fill in the blank- I've never been able to ___________________

Here are my Answers!

1.What was your favorite meal growing up?
My family calls them funeral potatoes! I loved and still love funeral potatoes and ham. The reason we call them funeral potatoes is because every Mormon funeral you go to serves them. It is a potato casserole with shredded hash browns, sour cream, cream of chicken, butter, and cheese. Yum!
2. What's your favorite month? 
This is a hard one! If I have to choose one month it is July, because it is warm and I don't have to work.

3. What store is most represented in your wardrobe?
Downeast Basic! I love that store!

4. How many times do you go to the movie theater each month/year?
I wish I went like once a month, unfortunately I am lucky to make it 1 or 2 times a year.
5. Fill in the blank- I've never been able to ___________________
do a cartwheel, I know crazy right? I was a cheerleader and I couldn't even do a cartwheel.

More Halloween Crafts!

As I have mentioned time and time again I am in love with The Wood Connection!

Today I would like to show off some of my wooden Halloween Decorations from The Wood Connection. I still have a few more projects, but I just haven't had time to finish them.

Let's get on with the show...


Up first we have my set of 3 bats to go along with my glass word frame.

Next I have these cute little danglers!

Then I have my witch's boot!

Last, but not my least favorite by far is my word WITCH!

I am loving Halloween this year, I just wish I could get all the projects done that are on my list.
I hope everyone else is enjoying this time of year as much as I am.

Hoo's got talent? #23

I am so sorry that my blog parties are being posted so late. I do have a good excuse, I am pregnant! I am 11 weeks along and my due date is May 1st. I am really excited to have another baby, but not to be pregnant.

I used to do my posts at night and now I am just so tired I go to bed. Last night was my son's birthday and then he woke up with the flu in the middle of the night. I don't have time to post my favorites from last week right now, but I wanted to get the link party up. Thanks for understanding and for continuing to participate in my blog parties.

So lets get on with...

Halloween Crafts!

I finally had some time to made a few Halloween crafts and I couldn't wait to post them all, instead of one at a time. So here we go.
I featured this cute idea from A Pumpkin and a Princess on Hoo's got talent last week and I had to make one my self. I added a 5 cent sign to mine.



I ordered kits for my friends and I to make Count Down to Candy blocks. These came from How Does She. I love how they turned out!

I also changed my 4 letter frame to BATS for the month of October.
Sorry this isn't the best picture!

I can't wait to finish up all my Halloween crafts! Too bad I have to work!

I am participating in the parties on my sidebar and the new Halloween party at eighteen 25!
