Halloween 2009

Titan's 1st Halloween!!! Last year he was supposed to be here in time for Halloween but decided to wait a little longer before making his appearance! :)

For this year's Halloween Titan got to be a Skeleton. After looking at tons of costumes and all their parts, headpieces, tails, etc. I found this and thought...PERFECT! He won't even know he is wearing a costume. It was warm, comfortable, and cute!!! (And even better only $5 at Babies R Us)

It as fabulous as well that it was a black costume because Broc was given tickets to the U of U Football Game from his work and it was a "blackout" game.

We had dinner with my family - the traditional pumpkin pizza's - and then went to the game. There was no "Trick or Treating" for Titan, other than going next door and getting some yummy Graduates Puffs from Great Grandma Diane who always puts together cute halloween treat bags for her grandkids...and now her one great grandkid.

It was also a treat to get to see some of Broc's family who came in town from Seattle, Carolyn & Ashley.

All around, it was a great and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! Here's to next year!!!

Land of Nod

Another FABULOUS baby/kid site I found! Such cute stuff...enjoy!

Rosenberry Rooms

I have been looking at artwork for a while now to go in Titan's room...someday (it's always a someday)! I want artwork that will grow with him and the room. I am also not a fan of hippity hoppity bunnies or cutsey monkeys in pastels or even cartoon characters in bright annoying colors.

Needless to say...I probably will not be your typical mom who just lets my kid pick their favorite cartoon character and then plasters it EVERYWHERE!!! That is not going to happen. I know kids like it but not in my house! That's what toys are for...and then at the end of the day those toys go in toy boxes or in closets!!! Call me a mean perfectionist mom...but I blame it on my design background.

Any way, back to the artwork, I found this website and LOVE their artwork:

www.rosenberryrooms.com

I am so excited I found them and have cataloged them away for future reference when it's time to decorate Ti's room. The above were some of my favorites for a boy's room.

For the week...

So I usually don't change my background for the holidays...but thought I would make an exception for this week in honor of Halloween!!! After Halloween it will be back to the black and white damask. Until then...humor me! :)

Hagatha

If you can't tell by now one of my absolute favorite things to do is decorate at the holidays and every year (right now) I purchase one item to add to my decor collection for each holiday. Well one item up to $50.00 or several items adding up to $50.00!

I think good ol' Hagatha might have to be my halloween decoration for this year...and she's even 50% off right now!!! Watching the demo, she is quiet fun and will be a great addition to my decor!!!
