This is one of the Halloween posts I warned you about. It’s actually About Baby Girl’s birthday party, but she had a Halloween party so, yeah.

No, you have not heard the last of it. I have at least two more Halloween related posts to come. I’m tempted to spew them all out at once.

If you have, I’m going to need for you to lie and say “no”Now it’s time for truth. As much as I love the pointy head, I’m afraid it looks at bit too Klann-ish. Should I round it […]
The Jane Banks dress is done. Finished last night. I’m thinking I can bust out the Tiny’s costume in time to move on to the New One today and get ahead of schedule. That will be nice for a change. I’ll post pictures when everything is complete with shoes and hair.
