These are some of the new Halloween decorations I made this past week. I think I am going to put them on some branches painted black in an urn with a ribbon on it?.

Halloween Decorations


I fell like I'm falling for fall...

This past weekend we went to The Brecknock Orchard fall festival. Yes, we do go to a LOT of festivals in the fall! There is just something about this time of year that makes me want to be outside. The crisp air, the falling leaves, the comfortable weather, I just love it! The festival was really fun. We went on a hay ride around the orchard, made our way through the corn maze and then there was a candy drop for the kids. We have never been there for the candy drop before and we were shocked at the whole thing! They actually have an Ultra Light plane fly over the orchard and the pilot drops a bucket of candy out the window. Somehow the candy does not knock you in the noggin, it just floats down in the breeze. Isabelle kept putting her bag over her head thinking she was going to catch the candy in it, so cute! It was fun...

Hooray for the Country Living Fair!

  • This past weekend my mom and I went to the Country Living Fair, and it was awesome! First of all, the weather was great, our hotel was CLEAN, and the people were so friendly! My favorite booth was McMaster and Storm, it was a "paper person's" heaven. Here is the run down...
  1. Gold bird decal
  2. bird in a cage that tweets when you wind it (ding dong- a door bell!)
  3. swan kit
  4. laurel wreath
  5. hand dyed ribbon-pink of course!
  6. petite fours poster
  7. sweet treats poster
  8. french nesting baskets(big purchase)
  9. and I know there is something else, but I can't think of it now!

Mums

Tonight we went to get some mums at the farm stand and we had a blast. The girls were laughing and singing and just being super silly! We actually got lost and it was getting dark, so we ended up with 3 mums and a stack of pumpkins! Is it too early for pumpkins? I think if they are selling em', we're buying em'! Chris is a pumpkin maniac! He would have pumpkins on every corner of everything at our house! I am the voice of reason when it comes to Holiday decorating, we do not need anymore anything! I actually love that about him.

Paper love

This is one of the signs I made for Halloween. I have found a new passion, Paper! After all these years of loving paper, ribbon, glitter, stamps, old post cards, I have finally found something to do with it all. This is one of my first attempts, and I think it looks pretty darn good!

On Sunday we went to the Hay Creek Festival, we have gone there every year since Chloe was born! It was fun this year, but Chloe and Reece got stung by Bees. I think Chloe might be a little sick of going, but it's a tradition, and we are all very sentimental people.

Country Living Fair, here we come!

My mom, my sister and I are going to the country living fair for the second year in a row, and I am getting so excited! We had a great time last year, there was so much to do in Columbus. We went out to some great restaurants and did a lot of shopping. The Fair itself was awesome, there were so many creative and talented women everywhere. I can't wait!
Hello, it has been a few days since I have blogged anything, my computer CRASHED, and there was nothing I could do about it! I lost everything, my pictures(thousands of pictures of the girls), everything on Photoshop, all off the images I have saved and was using for paper projects!!! Gone, everything is gone. But I am back up and running again, this time I just might think of backing up my computer.

Chloe's first day


Chloe had a great first day in junior high school! She loved all of her classes and said the day flew by. This is a picture of her "first day" outfit, she looked super cute in a Polo button down and jean skirt. Good job Chloe!
Today is a perfectly beautiful day! Thats all...
