Happy Halloween!!!!

We love Halloween at our house!!!
Two years ago today we brought Rhys home from the NICU after 5 weeks and 1 day in hospital. Joey went all over town to find her a pumpkin and we quickly carved it before the trick-or-treaters came.
Now here we are 2 years and 2 kids later...

Wow time flies...look how small Rhys was last year!!!


Yesterday Saucy and I had a Salted Caramel Hot chocolate at Starbucks...
We swapped our jewellery...NICU stories...children stories...discussed how small the world is because we know so many of the same people...and just had a great hour and a half visit. Thanks Saucy...we had a great time...see you at the Christmas swap!!!
I will post the beautiful necklace she made me tomorrow...I am going to wear it to our friends birthday party!!

Zombie Jar Exchange

Here is my Zombie Jar that I made for Karen...

This is Karen's Zombie Jar for Me...
It is my "Pumpkin Pixies"..I just love how she incorporated our family and quilting into the project! She was also super sweet and sent a book for the girls!!!
Rhys loves it and wants to see it all day long!!!

It is so neat how everyone took their own spin and created such wonderful masterpieces.
Thanks to Saucy for Hosting such a wonderful event!!!
