Either Someone is letting their children play in my yard...

...or aliens are trying to contact me!

This past week everytime I open the garage door I've noticed more and more rocks are in our driveway. Our driveway is paved. To the north there is a small area that has a bush and some rocks in it. I assumed that there have been children playing the driveway and that they have been playing with the rocks. I really don't care...they can't really do any damage to anything we own because Chrissy and I always park in the garage and if we are home, the garage is closed. A couple of times I've gone out to the driveway and kicked the said rocks back into the area in which they belong. They usually reappear in the driveway. Well tonight I sat down to play the piano and noticed that there are rocks all over our patio in our backyard! This concerns me because we have a fensed off backyard. No one should be in our backyard except us. These said rocks are arranged in interesting ways around the table and chairs. Weird! If you don't hear from me...it was aliens!

Oh, and in case you're wondering what to be for Halloween, I've composed a list of 10 things after reading MANY costume ideas online. Feel free to use any, or add your own great ideas! I'm still not sure I've found the perfect costume!

1. A giant Q-tip (White wig, wrap your body in blue, white cotton on your shoes)
2. Chick Magnet--attach Barbie dolls all over your body (or Easter Peeps)
3. Chia Pet--wrap yourself with duct tape-sticky side out- then roll around in the lawn
4. French Kiss--dress up as a hershey's kiss, add a beret (added bonus if you only speak French)
5. IRS Agent--Wear a business suit, carry a briefcase, take 28% of the person's candy without saying "thank you."
6. Cereal Killer--Take a bunch of empty miniature cereal boxes, stick plastic knives in the sides, paint with red paint or nail polish to simulate blood. Pin the boxes all over yourself.
7. Can-Can Dancer--Wear an old, long, frilly skirt. Attach empty cans underneath so that when you lift it up to dance everyone will see your can-cans!
8. Venetian Blind--Make a name tag with your name (or a fake name) and "from Venice." Then wear dark glasses and carry a white cane.
9. Web Surfer--Dress like a surfer, carry a surfboard, cover yourself in fake spider web
10. Spanish Fly--Wire two colanders or strainers together for eyes, fashion some wings and attach to a poncho. Wear a sombrero.
