Get R Done Friday


Well I finally got my act together - I work and get things done all the time, but never on projects I think are worthy of a blog - but this week is different. Please check out Expressly Corgi's Blog for Get R Done Fridays!


We are not only the scariest and most decorated house in the neighborhood - we have been the only one, I mean first one so far!

Andy did it all by himself this year - his first time and I think he did pretty dog gone good!


We have graves, bones, bloody feet, dead black roses, three types of spider webs, mummies, candles, and more!


Okay project number 2 - I'm room mother (grandmother) for Andy's class. My project should I chose to accept and I usually do - is to make this plot of land - under the window in his room - beautiful.


Just de-weeding with my daughter Kelly made a huge difference. We left the mum (?) plant in.


I chose to put in artificial decorations - no worry about watering. And I think it turned out beautiful.



My 3rd project is for the 24th of October - their Fall Festival - we need to make a basket for Silent Auction. I have started that and when it's done - I'll take a picture of that as well.

Love,
Chatty
PS Don't forget Fun Friday just below.

Andy's frightful yard is very effective...I'd be too darn scared to knock on your door for any treats!
You did a wonderful revival on that poor, sad flower bed under Andy's window too.
I bet he grins from ear to ear as he walks by.
Hey...my Grandma did that!!
