~ A Beautiful Goodbye ~

I am sad to say the time has come to stop blogging. I find that it has become more of a chore than an enjoyable time. I love looking at everyone elses blogs, but find I have no interest in sharing my own. So for now, I will say goodbye. It may not be forever and the urge may come to share later. Until then, have a wonderful day!

Coffee Filter Crafts



Happy Friday! Hope everyone is having a great Fall day. We are home today just hanging out and I am planning on making a fun Coffee Filter Wreath. My big girl is making fall paper chains in purple and orange which is my baby girls birthday colors this year. So fun. We are getting into the Halloween/Birthday spirit around here. Hope you have a great day!
Smile!

~ Fall Baking and Canning ~




Sorry I haven't been around lately. Seems like time just flies by... and I have been having problems with blogger. So I have to admit it makes blogging less fun when you have to deal with all that. I have been canning raspberries, and making peach cobblers... and today I am making chocolate chip pumpkin bars... yummy!
Hope you are having a great fall day!

Touches of Fall

 Fall leaves and pumpkins...

 One of my favorite fall scents... I am also trying out Scentsy's new scent Pumpkin Marshmallow... yum!

 My couch with fall quilt and pillows... I actually have a plan to change the green ones to golden yellow... 

 My latest greatest garage sale find... I have been looking forever and finally found an old laundry basket cart.... yeah! My fall blankets look great in it!

 Apples ready for a cobbler...

 Yummy mellowcreame pumpkins that I can only get this time of year... I love them!

Hope everyone had a good weekend. Ours was really great. Our garage sale went great, alot of stuff gone.  I was able to do some baking, see some friends, and start cleaning up for winter. Hard to believe that Summer is over and Fall is here. I love Fall and I am trying my best to squeeze as much time out of it as possible. 
Among all that I did this weekend, there was also a fair amount of remembering as well. In all of our daily trials and busy lives, it's easy to forget that 10 years ago, so many lost so much. Seeing it on TV brought so much back. I am thankfull everyday that my family is well and healthy and my heart goes out to everyone affected by September 11, 2001, as well as to all the families of Soldiers who are still affected today. 
Thank you!

~ Apple Picking ~


A good friend told me today that she is going apple picking in the next few weeks. I love it! Picking apples is one of those things that just says fall to me. Lucky for me she offered to bring me some! I am so blessed to have such great friends.
Have a great September 1st!
