You Gotta Have Friends – Miss Elaine-ous Monday

by

There are times when I still wonder what we are doing here.  You know, living in this particular town, away from our families and most of the people and things we knew for years.

But then we have a “little” Halloween party (more on that later this week) and I see my kids with their friends and I realize how so very blessed I am to have my friends here too and then I know EXACTLY what we are doing here.

It feels good.

It’s gonna really stink when we leave someday.

I tear up just thinking about it.

But for now, I am just going to soak up every minute I am able to spend with these awesome people, and their children, at this time in my life.

Yep, sure am.

Have YOU ever had a pirate, 2 Batmen, Spider Man, Optimus Prime, a Mario Brother, a professional football player AND Darth Vader in YOUR backyard all at the same time?  Yeah……….. I didn’t think so… 

Some of my wonderful friends.  And yes, I am the only “witch” in the picture. 

You caught me being “Miss Elaine-ous” again…  It’s Miss Elaine-ous Monday!

Remember, ANY “miss elaine-ous” post will do, something from your archives or something brand new! 🙂 


Do you have a post that meant a lot to you but wasn’t read by as many folks as you’d hoped? Or one that has great pictures and you want more people to see them? Or do you just have one that you really want to share!?
I’ll also choose a random post from those who link up to feature on The Miss Elaine-ous Life Facebook page (please “Like” if you have not already) so even more folks will see a new post every week! Grab the button and link up!



Miss Elaine-ous Monday



If you do not post the button, please still link back to my blog, even if you just put a little blurb at the end of you post such as “It’s Monday and I’m being “Miss Elaine-ous” over at The Miss Elaine-ous Life!” – Thanks!! Oh and extra bonus points to anyone who puts a tweet out there, that would be awesome too!

And PLEASE make sure to visit some other linkers too! Thanks! 🙂

  6. What fun! This makes me want to have a Halloween party! I think the Mario Brother costume is my fav, for a little boy!
    (Sadly, my boy little wants to be “nothing” or “himself” this year. Party pooper.)

  10. You are so right that you have to have friends. Friends can definitely make or break where you live. Love the pictures of the kids and the variety of costumes.
