With some money Colm got as a gift, plus allowance, plus a $10 off coupon, Colm was able to buy this:
Picked these up at Trader Joe’s today. Colm and I love this time of year.
Our school has this awesome geography program called Passport. Long story short, the kids earn passport stickers in their passports each month based on how well they do with their geography studies for that month. The gal who is in charge asked if I would help cut out the stickers for next month. Remind me not to say yes next time. Holy cow there’s a lot of them.
I had an iPhone for quite a while, but when Sprint’s new Evo came out, my hubby had to try it which also meant I had to try it. It was fine, but I missed my iPhone and, truth be told, my hubby missed his, too. Out with the Evo…in with the iPhone.
I had wanted a Woodwick candle for forever, but I am not much of a candle person and it’s just not something I really wanted to spend money on. However, I was at our local Hallmark store with a coupon in hand AND the candle was on sale. I got it for next to nothing. It’s autumn harvest scented and it smells fantastic.
We had a fantastic Halloween complete with pumpkin decorating/carving, trick-or-treating and perfect fall weather.

The mask and helmet never even made it out the door. They realized that trick-or-treating was going to be a lot easier without them.

Where is the video of Colm you ask? Very good question. Both of Colm’s parents were temporarily technologically impaired at the exact same time and we have no video. All his teacher has them do for their first recital is take a bow and he took a marvelous bow. It was spectacular…the best bow ever, but I have to video to show you. 🙁
It was an innocent mistake…a pluck of the string that was a little too hard and out popped Colm’s bridge. It scared the heck out of him and he sobbed and sobbed. He tried to get it back in himself and he would not listen to me when I told him he was going to make it worse if he ended up breaking the bridge in half; he was bound and determined to fix it himself. Well, obviously that didn’t happen, since it takes a little know how to get that done, but Colm’s teacher did graciously fixed it for us.
The bridge is the light wooden part that holds the strings up. It’s all fixed in this picture.
