Weekend Wind-Down #29

DOMO 0535

Soooooo, Halloween turned out to be somewhat of a bust for Missy and me. We waited for trick-or-treaters to come to our door, but none came, and we both ended up falling asleep. We woke up from our naps still with plenty of time to hit the town, but by then the mood escaped us and curling up under warm blankets seemed much more appealing. The following day we hit up Target and took advantage of their half-off Halloween sale. We got a head start on our Halloween costumes for next year and I found lil' DOMO with two turntables and a microphone.

Earlier this afternoon, our friend Jenny - who crafts under the name PRAIRIE DOG INC. - dropped by to deliver a cute little squid pin that she had made out of felt. Missy had ordered from her ETSY shop. I think there's a matching yellow one that we're thinking about getting now:

Thanks for the shout out, guys! MIssy, I hope you're enjoying your pin and he's not trying to swim away.
