{Tis' the Season....}

...for Christmas pj's, avacado and kaolin facials for dry winter skin, and trimming the tree!It's also a PERFECT time for these AWESEOME Slatkin & Co. Candles from Bath and Body Works! They are normally $10 each but I recently scored 6 for $20 while they had a big sale and I had a great coupon!
Tonight's choice was my FAVORITE...Holiday Gumdrop:)
But I also have the Mint Chocolate...(not the most fragrant when it's burning)
a tiny bit of Pumkin Caramel Latte left over from Fall...heavenly!...
Gingerbread...smells just like the real thing!
and the Marshmallow Peppermint one nestled in the "snow"...and I love them all!


If you have a candle lover on your Christmas shopping list then you can't go wrong with one of these!

Happy Tuesday!

Love,

{Shame! Shame!}

I can't believe my last post was over 28 days ago....Bad! Bad! Blogger! It's not like I haven't had anything to talk about...completely the opposite actually:)
Here's a quick recap to get us up-to-date....
We did the Electric City Gobbler 5k on Thanksgiving morning. "Did"...meaning that I walked/ran with Glory and Travis ran;)
It's a fun family thing...Patrick, Ken, Trav, Glory and Me!
Kudos to Ken who won a trophy!
Our little family at the finish line;)

Oh yeah, and this is me today... proof I still exist;)
Lol!
So, back to the last 28 days;) We went to Edisto to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. Other than my bike wreck (OUCH!) we had a nearly perfect time!
Sea fishing was so fun (after I put my head between my knees for a few minutes every once in awhile!) Note to self: take dramamine next time!
We cooked up all the whiting and blue fish...
SCORE!
It was beautiful, peaceful, and oh-s0-relaxing!
And then there are the Halloween pics I never posted...
Our homemade (and thrifted;) Mickey and Minne costumes. I think the whole project cost me about $7.50!
This is one way my husband shows me he REALLY loves me...he wasn't exactly thrilled about wearing a Mickey Mouse costume but he really does make a good one...huh? :)

Bye for now friends! Look for more consistent posts coming your way;)

{Halloween Clearance!}

Whewww....Halloween is OVER! And boy was it FUN!

I took so many pictures that my camera battery is officially KAPUT until I can get a new one tomorrow so today's post is unfortunately sans photos. :(

But as far as Halloween goes, I'm totally READY for next year! I stopped by Party City today because their clearance was already 75% off and got a TON of scary stuff for the Rada's Halloween Party 2012:)

I spent $34 which is MUCH more than I'd usually spend but I got lots of high priced items I'd been wanting like a full size strobe light, huge pumpkin battery powered hanging lanterns, a huge cauldron, matching mini cauldron, a drop down spider, two strands of cute ghost lights, two new strands of purple and orange and MUCH MUCH MORE! I ended up SAVING over $99!

Time to pack it up tonight and look forward to dragging it back out año próximo!

Love,
Laura

P.S. So far, the only place I've found Halloween clearance for more than 50% is Party City. It'll be a few days until the other stores lower their prices. I'll try to keep you updated!
