They were able to wear their costumes to school on Friday. This is what my other Daughter *my daughter's best friend that lives with us* dressed up as.
They had a great time. I actually did her make up as it was easier for me. She bought that black stuff that goes around the eyes but my daughter had black eyeshadow so I used that instead and it turned out a lot better. Now for stitching. I have been working on Monopoly this week again and like I said will continue working on it until I get bored or finish it. Well I finished another square this week. I finished Just visiting/In Jail. I am glad to get that done. I really hated the backstitching on that square but it's done lol. Here is a picture of the square and of it overall.
Another one I didn't show you that I stitched a while ago is Oriental Courage. I actually finished the dragon part of the design. Here is where I stopped on it.

You're Monopoly Board's looking lovely, I've seen this completed by one other lass and it looked so amazing when it was finished, so I hope you're enjoying stitching it.
Can I be included in your giveaway (what a lovely additional thing to do for a sweet 16). I'm a HEAD addict, so that's the route I'm going down.
Impossible Love which is a Selena Fenech piece (it's always Selena Fenech of Meredith Dillman in my world).
There's a chance I've left this twice, my computer had a weird hiccup.
You're Monopoly Board looks fabulous, a saw a finish of this a little over a year ago from the first ever blog I followed, and it looked amazing, so I hope you're enjoying stitching it.
And I love the pumpkins, brilliant, seen some really funny ones of those.
Please can I enter your giveaway? I'm a HAED addict so I'd go for Impossible Love by Selena Fenech cos it's just beautiful. And I always go for either Selena Fenech of Meredith Dillman

Hi Terri! Glad to see you're doing so well up there in the Great Cold North. = )
Your Monopoly is coming along great! Think you'll finish it this year, or will it be a 2011 finish?
Your daughters look like they had fun on Halloween, good to see they are still enjoying it at their ages. My little girls had a blast, dressing up as a candy corn (3yo) and a ghost (6yo). = )
I'll abstain from the giveaway, goodness knows I have enough kitted up for a while, but it's a wonderful surprise someone will be getting! = )
Take care,
Carolyn in VA
