It began snowing around 7pm last night. Big wet flakes were blown around by the wind just as we took Daughter-1 to her dance class. This morning the thin blanket of snow was an amazing peaceful scene.
Peaceful Snow
Fun at the Pumpkin Patch
The sunset was gorgeous. It was the perfect end to our evening at the patch.
Books
Last evening, I took Daughter-2 with me to Costco to pick up some photos I had printed and we ended up leaving with the Hunger Games Trilogy and a set of books for Daughter-1. When we located the trilogy set (it took us a good 10 minutes), Daughter-1 screamed so loud, you could almost hear... Continue Reading →
She Walked Around the Snow
This morning we got a nice surprise. Snow. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your like/dislike of snow), it all disappeared by afternoon. Daughter-1 used to love walking through the snow. Even when she was wearing her prettiest shoes, she would still walk through the snow. This morning, things were different. I drove her to school,... Continue Reading →
Pumkin Bread Cravers + Autumn Fairy Fantasy Layout 3 Ways
Both my girls love pumpkin bread but Daughter-2 goes nuts over them, especially my version. She's been begging me to make pumpkin bread since the summer so last night I finally made a couple loaves.

My sister did the consulting and I was the... Continue Reading →

Here's a review of those items: ^ Sephora + Pantone Universe Eyeliner Set. I currently have the Sephora + Pantone Universe eye shadow palette and really like the colors and staying power. ...

From the Garden
What would I do without Mom and Dad's garden of veggies, herbs, and two humongous peach trees soon to ripe with sweet juicy peaches? I don't know how to garden and I've tried to garden in indoor pots but nothing ever turns out right. Plus, I am also fearful of garden bugs. Last week, Mom... Continue Reading →
