I can't believe it's Monday, again! Isn't it crazy how it keeps coming back? It was at least a fairly restful weekend, aside from a brief period of barking at 5:45 on Sunday morning (I suspect an animal was outside; she got quiet again afterwards). Importantly, we had beautiful weather for a Halloween party, and pretty much everyone brought their A game. Here's a look at some of the costumes:
First, my brother and his family as Star-Bellied Sneeches:
My brother-in-law as his family as Toy Story toys, plus a kid with a boombox:
My parents, the gnomes (my father was a "bathroom gnome," whatever that is):
And then me and the Mister, or Marty McFly and his girlfriend Jennifer:
Molly had had a really rough week at school and was up late on Thursday night because she went to the Sabrina Carpenter concert with a couple of friends, so she didn't dress up as anything other than a tired, stress-out high schooler.
The end of last week also brought with it a finished project:

| Tied Knots (Ravelry link) in Fibernymph Dye Works Confetti Tweed DK |
and a new cast-on:

| The very last of my Felici! |
This week is shaping up to be busy at work, plus there's Halloween and extracurricular activities. And I'm already dreading turning the clocks back next weekend, mainly because I know I won't get any extra sleep and it'll just be dark even earlier. For now, though, I'm going to enjoy the fact that it's supposed to be sunny and a high of about 60ºF today. I'll be spending most of the day inside in front of a computer screen, but at least I'll get some vitamin D when Ruthie and I are out for walks.
What fun (and so creative) costumes!! (and I had a bit of a flash back at your Molly comment... oy, you have my sympathy. There is nothing on earth that equals a tired teenager!) I am dreading the time change as well... I don't think Frankie is going to have a smooth transition. I have been trying to move eating times back a bit and the struggle is very real!
ReplyDeleteThose costumes are great! And I love your Back to the Future costumes! And I love that you two look totally stylish based on the standards of now AND then!
ReplyDeleteI feel for Molly. I hope she was able to have fun at the concert and that she had fun at the family Halloween party.
I love those Felici colors - they almost look like winter holiday colors in this picture. Perfect!
What great costumes!! I love your parents as gnomes. LOL. Congrats on the hat finish and a new sock start. Wishing Molly a stress-free week (and you too).
ReplyDeleteThe costumes are great! Looks like everyone had a good time.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope Molly has a better week.
What a fun family you are!! I just love how all the adults pull together such good costumes. No slacking there :) And I think we could ALL use a bathroom gnome. (And a vacuum gnome. And a kitchen gnome. You see where this is going....!) :)
ReplyDeleteWhat fun costumes! Your family is making great memories, even for that tired teenager (who got to see Sabrina Carpenter!) I love that pink hat especially.
