Holiday Kids Clothing

I found this reindeer bow tie at crewcuts , the new line for kids by j crew, love the looks, discouraged by the prices, but I could splurge a bit for this darling bow tie!

Holiday Craftiness

I decided its time to start looking for things to decorate with this Christmas, I have decided what colors I want to start collecting each year and I found a few things to start with.

I Love this Martha Stewart Jingle Bell Wreath, and I am going to make it! I love the simplicity

and beautiful champagne ribbon!

I also love these beaded snowflakes, I think these would look especially beautiful on my Christmas tree!

Uncles are the best!

My little brother, loves being an uncle! He usually sleeps over every other weekend, so he gets lots of time with Ryan. Ryan was so content watching TV on Jeremy's lap I had to snap a picture!

Halloween Dinner Party

On Friday night we had a dinner party, eight couples, great food, nice conversation, dessert, and pumpkin carving. Everyone was really into the pumpkin carving, we lit them all up on my front porch and we were a pretty proud bunch. My cousin Lindsey's husband Rich had a birthday, so we sang Happy Birthday and topped it off with Chocolate Cheesecake, and Pumpkin Pie! It was a Great night! Thanks to all who attended!

Jamie was really excited to carve his pumpkin, His is actually eating another pumpkin, clever! I decided to keep it simple with our Family monogram a big W!

And the finished products!

Pumpkin Patch

A New Leaf

As of last Monday I am unemployed, Shaw Industries decided to discontinue our entire program, and over 40 people are now out of work. A surprise, but I am really enjoying, my time with Ryan, the park, lunching with my mom, sewing, and getting projects done from the back of my closets. I might win an award for the most organized mom here pretty soon!

Yesterday I went to lunch with my mom, have any of you been to Rumbi's? A favorite of mine, Crisp greens, feta, grilled chicken, tortilla strips, tomatoes,and a spicy vinaigrette to top it off, Healthy and tasty. afterwards we headed to Thanksgiving point, to take a few pictures with the plethora of pumpkins, I got some great shots only to discover we have lost our camera usb cord, so no pictures of the big day, soon to come.

Today I am heading to the fabric store with a friend of mine in hopes I may find some jewels in the mix. My plan is to make more baby shoes, and a few other things for Christmas. Then back home to make Roasted Tomato Basil Soup, we are out, and I need to restock our freezer. There are 9 lbs of Roma tomatoes on the counter, calling to me. I have procrastinated for 3 days, it will be the perfect meal for a crisp October day!

Fabulous Flowers

Jamie surprised me with these beautiful fall flowers! I was so impressed! He has really come a long way in the last three years when it comes to picking out flowers. I guess my subtle hints have made an impact on him after all. If I had it my way I would have fresh flowers every week. I especially love the red vase they came in! Snaps for my hubby!
