Spooky Time Jingles!!

I am happy to say I have been included in the circle of talented artists of the wonderful group Spooky Time Jingles.  This group was founded by Dani Nelson of Ambitious Designs and shows off the creative talents of artists creating Halloween and Christmas designs. 

I am excited to be a member of this group because I have gradually been returning to my Halloween and Christmas figures and these talented artists certainly inspire me.  So, be sure and check out their website for wonderful fun collectible items for your home and also check out their  Spooky Time Jingles Blog to keep up with what they have been up to.  I am excited...........I hope you will be too when you check out these wonderful artists.

The Great Mississippi River Balloon Race of 2009

As some of you know, every year I post about the Balloon Race held in October each year.  Our family always gets together for a wondrful week-end of good food, relaxation and just being together while watching the balloons drifting overhead and over the Mississippi River while we sit high on the bluffs of Natchez.  But, unfortunately, my husband and I became sick and had to cancel our participation...he developed bronchitis and I have pneumonia with asthma....however we did bundle up Sunday morning and rode to a site where the balloon pilots would be trying to hit a target on the ground with their bean bags.  The weather was beautiful and the wind was apparently just right, so I managed to get some really good pictures........here they are with no commentary...just look and enjoy the beauty of these magnificant balloons.
