Diana (kitty) and Leah (neat hot dog shirt) at work yesterday.

Halloween FUN!
This is Amber dressed for work as a fun clown! :0)

Tim and the sweet ladies at lunch time.

Steve as a Packer Fan.

Julie (Little Devil) and Ethan(Julie's grandbaby as Buzz Light Year).

Julie as a devil......and this is just the opposite of her personality.........very funny!!!!!!!

Cassie, hockey player with a black eye!

Cathy as OCTO-Mom Nadya........haaaaaaaheheeh. All 8 babies strapped to her back.

Here is my inspiration for this years pumpkin! RUFIO.......hehehe. I carved him for Halloween! BOO ----ROOF----RUFIOOOOOOOOOOO!

We attended a fun Halloween partayyyyyyy last night, and here are some of the costumes!
Nadya, OctoMom(hilarious), Tim was a yellow chicken, I was a Chicago Style Hot dog, and Earl, the personal trainer. There were some Swine Flu viruses, that I did not get a picture of, they were in pink t-shirts(that said H1N1) with pink wings, pink pig noses AND they were walking around with a tray of jello SHOTS. Funny!

The food layout is always beautiful at Tim and Cathy's, with carved pumpkins and their collection of beautiful and scary Halloween decorations that they have accumulated over the years!

Looks delish right?

Caesar stayed in costume all night.....and it was 40 outside, that is the bon fire his toes are in! Good job Joel!

Cathy(retired Hooters gal) and her folks, Mom, Penguin and Dad the Sheik. Hehehe!

Fun times!

Here is my Bride of Frankenstein Cake to contribute to a party we are attending on Saturday night. OH the fun! I am missing the eye lashes and the neck bolts yet, but I wanted a shot, because tomorrow I am taking her to work. The first picture Amber took in her black and white green accent mode on her camera. The other two are in full color.

Anyone else making fun treats for Halloween?

Hugs,Patti

The prize was a wonderful little pack of papers, some tea, bits of fabric,lace and an extra special wooden collage that I just adore.....in my favorite colors too! Wheeeeeeeeeeee!

Here are some pictures! I am tickled PINK and thank Patty from the bottom of my heart!

Here are some fun Halloween atcs I did for an exchange. I used my cereal box collages as a background and then lots of stamping, aren't her legs cute(they are a stamp) and some stitching and glittering! Happy Halloween -----it's almost here!!!!!!

A landscape company here is WI, celebrated it's 50th Anniversary and the restaurant I work at did the catering.......and I decorated 3 sheet cakes with their logo on it. (A tree and their company name.)
I was watching the news last night, and they covered the event, as David J. Frank does charity work for the community and involved it in his celebration, very cool!!! Anyways, here is the clip from the FOX channel six news here......don't blink, or you will miss the cake! :0)
You can put your curser on the video clip as it starts playing and a light gray pause button will appear and you can pause the frame on the cake if you want to see it at a standstill.
It was fun seeing it there on the tv!

Aren't these pumpkins with faces fun? I wanted to get some fall decorations up and get a happy feeling going.....so these pumpkins are doing the trick, with some fall leaf clings too! The expressions........crack me up! :) The faces are on both sides......so people can see them from the outside as well.

The top left corner of the

red ribbon quilt shows the MONKEY.....isn't he something!

Can you see why I am absolutely loving these quilt shows?
Do you believe the talent in these pieces? I am always sooooooo inspired to see them! Here are a few more quilts to drool over and I will show you the show winner in the next post! IT is AMAZING!!!!!!! As these all are!
