Out with Old in with the New

OLD

Look how bad all these flowers look... I'm actually a little embarrassed to show you what I did to my flowers. I did try, but then (shhhh) I forgot to water. Sorry!

NEW

AHHHHHH Fresh New Flowers... Cross your fingers I keep these guys alive! Aren't they beautiful! Just wait till they bloom!

Well, we're getting ready for Halloween here at the Scully household... As well as the rooster is too! The rustic rooster puts up all it's Halloween decor October 1st... We don't try & sell, sell, sell months before the Holiday is ever here! So watch the rooster October 1st... It will take a ghoulish transformation! Since I have little ones that think Halloween is tomorrow or even their birthdays are every day... I had to start the Decorating/setting up a little early in our house. Ryan's costume just arrived (OMG he looks so cute!) & Grandma is making Taylor's costume. She can't wait... That's a secrete till Halloween night! I did purchase some Halloween flash lights for the night. OK, the best place to go for inexpensive goodies that you can toss is the 99 Cents store her in Encinitas. Dangerous... But, so much fun with the kids! We got this guy that you grow grass for hair... We did it once before when Taylor when she was really little. Now that Taylor is big enough to enjoy it & Ryan kind of... I decided to do it again. I got this guy up at the outlets in Carlsbad at the toy store. Kind of expensive but worth it because it's a fun project to do. We pulled out our adorable Halloween sign (purchased at the rustic rooster) & hung it up now... the pumpkins are next... That's daddy's job. He loves that stuff! Fun to watch...

STEP 1:

The Pumpkin man... Getting ready to grow some grass hair!

So fun to watch... Kids love it! Plus you get to give your

pumpkin a hair cut.

STEP 2:

Soak your pumpkins head in water. Fully submerge it until all the bubbles are gone...

STEP 3:
Put the put the plastic top on it to make a green house affect... For about 5 to 7 days. Then you should see some grass sprouting. Take the top off and watch your little man get hair!

Haven't got to STEP 4 yet... When I do I will show you....

BOO... BOO.. BOO... BOO

Old School Scully...

About a year ago my husband spotted this Old School Vintage pixie Schwinn cruiser... He turned to me with wide eyes & said, Should we get it for Taylor? I asked the guy how much... Of course me being the "PRO" shopper (just kidding) I haggled... The gentleman wanted 50, I said, 20... we settled at 30... WOW! That's a great deal. Everything is original on it... Even the tires. I love the fact that it's blue because Mr. Ryan can use it when he get bigger & the Big S on the seat... Looks like I had the Scully initial put there on purpose. So if anyone steals this bike, I know it's ours because of the seat... Ha ha Grandma bought training wheels in anticipation for the big day Taylor would transfer over from her little 10 dollar pink plastic bike... Well, the day Finally came... Today! We went out for our morning stroll on the coast with the kiddos & almost died because Taylor wouldn't stop complaining about her bike & how hard it was to ride. I do have to say she looked pretty funny on it... Tall girl on a little bike. So sad! The moment we left the beach we drove right to storage got the bike out & then over to grandmas house picked up the the training wheels & the rest is history!

Taylor Scully has officially joined the old school Scully beach cruiser clan....

Bone Straight

Well, I did it again... One of my crazy beauty tricks!

Last September I straightened my hair with the Japanese straightening treatment. Wow, it was amazing! Wash & go... Love it! It lasted for almost a year on me. Every one's hair is different so it might last longer or less... I could have done it again in 8 months after I had it done because of my re-growth... but with 2 kids, full time job & a small social life I didn't do it then. My birthday rolled around & I said, Wa La... The only down side about this treatment is that it takes 3 hours at the salon, you can't wash your hair for 3 days, put it in a pony tail or even put a hat on. They don't want any dents or water to ruin the procedure... I need to be in hibernation right now. I swear I put deodorant & perfume on. Ha ha ha So this is what my hair looks like right now... Love it!!! I will show you all a picture after I've washed it...
