Creature Comfort Gift Guides

I have always loved gift guides.  I am intrigued by what others find, what they are inspired by, and what’s on their very own wish list.  I’ve been following the lovely guides at Creature Comforts.  I think you should check them out too, I’ve been introduced to the loveliest things, many of which have ended up on my very own wishlist.

Did You Get Your Tree?

My Little Butterfly

Friday night was delightful.  When Iz woke up Friday morning I told her it was Halloween, and after school, she could put on her costume and we’d go Treating, so she declared during morning circle that today, after school Halloween starts!

Dressed in a lovely butterfly costume, we headed to Columbia City, where the lovely local shops were handing out candy.  At Retroactive Kids, Bellen Drake was photographing the kids.  I just love the shots, and I can’t wait to see them.  You can see more of her beautiful work on her web site.  (I wonder if they’ll be doing this for Christmas?  hmmm)

Sneakin' Candy in the Backseat

Iz was so delighted, she munched on a few pieces in the back seat while we left Columbia City and headed for West Seattle.

Treatin'

We had a sweet evening, with not a lot of sugar consumption.  The Halloween Monster (she’s friendly, don’t worry), did come last night and took some of the candy.  We leave her some of the treats so we can trick -or-treat next year.  The rest will be rationed off, and probably forgotten about in a few days.
