HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I love halloween, I always have and I always will. When we lived in Belgrade we were in a subdivision and we would always get together with neighbors and have fun parties. Now that we live, "out of town" & our neighbors...are well, let's just say, retired, we haven't been quite the party central that we like.

But that is about to change tonight! The kids have friends coming over for Pizza & then we are taking them into Trick OR Treat! Emmy is dressing up as a Princess, of course! Actually, I think she specifically called it a Prom Queen.
I'm NOT sure about Tennyson, he's getting to the end of his trick or treating days. How sad is that? He'll probably just dress up as a Hunter or something like that...he has tons of camo & orange...so maybe GI JOE.

I LOVE Halloween!
I love to decorate for Halloween, I love to buy candy all month, just because I can and have it in the bowl all month long and amazingly it somehow stays full all month long.....(thanks to the many refills).
I love candy & I love costumes!
My friend thinks Halloween is great, it allows men to dress in drag at least once a year...and they just say "it's their costume"!

Happy Halloween, have fun with your kids or have fun scaring other kids!

Have the time of your life!

Happy Birthday to Ivy!


So today is my niece Ivy's birthday. She is five years old today! I cannot believe she is five. Here is a list of my favorite things about Ivy:

1. She corrects her mom and tells her that my name is NOT Stinky and that it is really Candice. Love love love it.
2. Love that she has had more stitches, in her face, than all the other grandkids put together.
3. Love that she loves LIPPY!
4. Love that she loves Granny (Stinky OLD Lady) Parfume!
5. Love that she looks like a midget!
I love IVY!

Happy Birthday, Baby Girl.

HSM #3 - Mania


On Friday I took Emmy to High School Musical #3 (HSM#3) in Helena. This is the first HSM that has debuted in the Theatre's and I know from past experience what complete HYPE these have gotten. I ordered tickets on-line earlier in the week because I didn't want to be disappointed with a sell out. Well, the theatre wasn't even packed, plus they had like 4 showings of the movie on Friday. But it was so fun, it's so convenient to show up to movie and already have your tickets! I'm all about the conveniences of modern society!

I didn't take any pictures of the girls but here is a few pictures that I found on-line....our tribute to HSM. Oh ya & I quite enjoyed the show. Who could complain, the boys are so cute!
Like who in high school doesn't go to the roof of their school and waltz the day way? Oh ya and spontaneously bust into MELODY! Love it!!!
The boys of HSM!
Nothing wrong with starring at this for 1+ hours!

Frustration & Busy....Emmy

I know, if you just look at the title....what?

Our group topic today was how to deal with Frustration. This couldn't have been a better topic for me. I had a very frustrating morning. I don't want to go into detail but some people ARGH! Just frustrate me. I hate people that walk into something, totally take over and hog all the credit. That I do things to get credit but I also don't like someone walking in and just taking over! Enough of that! It's getting me all....frustrated again!

Today at lunch my co-workers and I were talking about ADD & ADHD, I said I might have a small case of either, like mostly when I'm cleaning or working on a project and I get bored with it. I'll just stop doing what ever it was that I was doing and just onto something else without even finishing! Terrible I know. So one of my co-workers said, I don't think you have ADD/ADHD, I just think you are BUSY! How funny is that? Like you think she knows me or what? I'm the epitome of busy. Haha, I got a good chuckle out of that one.

Emmy:
After I made the first cut, I decided to get a picture of her!

Last night Emmy decided she wanted to get her hair-cut. She had been talking about cutting her hair to her chin for sometime now. So I just whipped out the scissors and cut hair. All I can say is somethings should be left to professionals. But seriously, it actually didn't turn out that BAD! Here is the proof!

This is after the cut, she is holding pieces from the first "snip"!


This is the "after" pic. She loves it!
So as if this post isn't long enough! I'm taking Emmy & one of her friends to opening night of High School Musical #3, she is sooo excited. I figured I created the monster, I better feed it!
Have a great weekend.
Have the time of your life!

So here goes.............

OK, so here goes. I have had this dang BLOG page set-up for quite sometime now. I just decided today, I better get with the 21st Century and start using it. I love looking at friends blogs (old & new).

So as they say, here goes nothing!
UPDATE: I swear I am the worst driver ever. I dropped by friend off at the Lew Schwab after school and backed into a giant flatbed trailer. Like who does that? So I have to get that fixed and will replace my burnt out head light too, while I'm at it. I love driving a car that is older and is already paid for....it's such a beater! I love it! LOL
I'll take pictures later and post! It's really worth the photo-op!
As for the kids, they are keeping me really really busy. Tennyson finished his season of football this week and only lost one game, tied another and won all the rest of them. They weren't even supposed to be good. It was soo fun to watch them play. I can't wait to watch him next year when he's a big Jr. Higher!


Little Miss Emmy played soccer this fall and loved it. I don't think she scored a goal but she loves the social aspect of anything! She did great and her team won a few and lost a few.
Now, if I can just figure out how to invite people to view my blog. I'm hoping this will be helpful to keep extended family updated on the happenings of the "Miller" clan.
Well, until next time.
Have a great day!
