The Incredible Jack Hulk
Kids just love Halloween don't they?
Whilst for use older adults it can be a pain in the behind, the older kids coming around late on a night long before Halloween night and it’s not toffee apples they are after, it’s hard cash and when they don’t get it we get a mouthful of abuse (sigh)
Our Family have always done Halloween but none of our children go to strangers houses, we only go to family and close friends and we arrange it before the event. This way we aren’t bothering anyone, if only all Mums and Dads did this.
So Last night we were the first stop for Jack to come knocking, he certainly wasn’t disappointed with his goody bag and he roared and acted the part perfectly.
How did your night go?
I used the My Memories Suite to make the layouts. Also all papers and elements are from the Echo Park Chillingworth Manor digi kit from Jessica Sprague

Happy Haunting
It’s that time of year again when all the ghosts and goolies come out eeeeeek!
Hagather Witch from Just Inklined may just be flying over your roof tops tonight so keep a look out for her.
I used the Letraset Neon Markers to spice up the colours on kraft card stock Lost and Found papers and 1" Reversible Satin Ribbon with Stitched Edge from Ribbon Carousel.
My Grandson Jack is all set with his costume and his Mam and Auntie Natalie are taking him trick or treating and they had great fun carving pumkins out last night so I’ll get some pictures for you.

I’m Back
We are back, we had a little delay due to hurricane Sandy and having said that I am praying that my US friends are safe and well. Our last week had a big weather change due to this and we were told that it was A Perfect Storm scenario that was happening so fingers crossed that this hasn’t affected any of you.
I won’t bore you with all my holiday snaps but I did take some panoramic photos of where we were staying.
The first two are from our balcony
Isn’t it beautiful?
These two are from the side of our suite
The one below made me giggle as Chris decided to run around the back of me so he could be in the picture twice, he’s such fun to be with.
This was the walk to the pool.
And this one was one of the bars on the way to the pool.
The main pool, that bit in the middle with the white posts is a Jacuzzi
This is the walk leading up to the reception.
and a closer view.
Part of the reception from the pool walk
And the view from the reception desk.
All in all a beautiful place.

My First Margarita
As most of you know, I'm not a drinker, however if I was I think this would be my tipple. My American friends drove me crazy taking about them an me not knowing how they tasted I made it my mission to try one this holiday.
So lemon was my flavour and boy was it good, I loved the salt around the rim of the glass too. If you haven't yet tried one, give it a whirl.

Brazilian Night
I really didn't know what to expect, I don't think I've every had a Brazilian meal, at least not knowingly.
We were booked in at 6:30 and thankfully the room had air conditioning and believe me when I say it was so, so needed.
We were greeted at the door by Leona, our favourite waitress.
Such a lovely girl, we had our starter, lots of tasters, one was a prawn salad which was finger licking good.
The main course was meat skewers, jacket potato, corn on the cob and a tomato based side salad and a gorgeous spicy dressing, they just kept coming around with the meat skewers, pork, chicken, beef, sirloin lamb and prawns, totally delicious.
So onto the sweet, I thought it best that I gave you a visual for this.
The evening was a wonderful success so much so I had to try the hat for myself.
