goodies

3rd post of the day?! i'm on a roll! :p

i was just so proud of my little self that i had to show you this:



it's the basket full of things i'm taking to my consignment meeting tomorrow! it's all lookin' so cute in that little basket :).

and speaking of goody baskets...



behold: the cutest giftwrap you'll ever see that also looks like everybody's least favourite halloween candy! :p

brandon has a little half-sister named hannah (who is the sweetest little girl ever, and is just 3 1/2 years old), whom i just met for the first time at the wedding. normally, little girls don't like me (although little boys love me for some reason!), but hannah really did like me, which is fortunate, as we are now sisters :). she is the only semblance of sibling i will ever have, so i wanted to do something cute for her for halloween, my favourite holiday. at the wedding, she went on and on about how much she likes reeses peanut butter cups, so i got her the miniature ones in halloween foil wrapping, and also some tiny hershey's bars (heehee, hopefully she doesn't eat it all in one go... brandon's dad and stepmom will probably kill me the next time they see me! haha!). i wrapped it all up in this fun jack-o-lantern and candy corn tissue paper i found, and stuck it all in that adorable, glittery, happy giant candy corn gift bag (complete with googly eyes! yes!). and of course i made her a little card to go along with it, telling her 'happy halloween' from her big brother and new big sister. i hope she likes it :).

i never got to be around kids growing up, or even as an adult thusfar, and i can't have any biological children of my own, so it's important to me to spoil my new little sis :).

anyway, i just had to share!

♥,
melissa

Aw, that is so cute!!! She's gonna love you even MORE now--no kid forgets candy :)

I don't know why, but I love candy corn. It is completely unreasonable.
