Okay, confession time!
I can't believe I'm writing this, but you will find this quite comical! Today, the quilting store was doing a Halloween sale. If you come in wearing a costume, you get 31% off! Yep, 31%. I couldn't believe it. So, I found the one and only costume that I have. Mind you- I have never worn it, but I have it. So, I put on my EVE costume, got a good laugh from my husband and off I went. Yes, you read right, I went the the quilting store as EVE. I will not EVER post pictures, so it's up to you to imagine how drop dead sexy I looked dressed up as Eve. Wearing a taupe colored body suit with leaves in 3 very appropriate places!
Anyway, you bet I got my 31% discount. It felt great checking out knowing that I saved myself $31. Was it worth it, don't ask, but I did get $31 off my purchase! Instead of spending $100, I only spent $69. Since I was getting a discount, and I found an adorable pattern for a skirt (for me) I bought the pattern and the fabric to make a TOTALLY Sassy skirt. And, I made the quilt shop workers day!
So, here is your question. How far will you go for a good deal? I want to hear stories!! Come on, you know you have one. I just told the world I dressed up as Eve. You can't top that, can you?
Happy Halloween All!
Sassy
P.S. I am up to 7 friends in Alaska. Can you believe it? I miss my friends so much!! {hugs}

Begger's Night
Beggars night is the term the Dayton Ohio area uses for Trick or Treating. Our night was last night. Before I show you pictures, I am going to rant. Beggars night was from 6-8 pm. Great! They put a time limit on it. No kids ringing the door bell waking up the young kids. This is our 2nd year on this side of the military housing, so this wasn't new to me, but I remember my rant last year. As one is begging each house for family, one can observe multiple (and I mean like more than 10) 15 passenger vans dropping kids off and going to the "end" to park. Yes, you heard me right. Multiple vans brought their kids to the stand alone houses to trick or treat because we are the "rich" part of the military (you are supposed to be a Captain or higher to live over here) and we are safe. So, we gave out candy and then gave out some more. The thing that bugs me the most is when kids over the age of 12 are begging. There should be an age limit. There should be some sort of party for kids age 12 and older to go to. Why are they coming to my house and taking the Mike 'n Ike's or Hot Tamales from the little kids.Okay, ranting done. Kennie was a pirate, Justin was a knight, Nate was the cutest dang spider you have ever seen, but it was Maggie who stole the show. She is the cutest lady bug in the world. See for yourself!! Aaron was a military man (what a great costume huh?) and Sassy was a crazy mother. (come on, that is a disguise don't you think?)
Also, here is a video of Nate saying trick or treat. I couldn't resist, he was SO SO SO cute!
