My Christmas Decor.


I love Decorating. This year I was able to add a new fun color to our Christmas Tree. I found the orange ornaments and the poinsetteas at Dollar tree. I started with the green ornaments for the tree our first Christmas together as a married couple and love the modern twist it gives to a timeless Christmas color. The urn that the tree is sitting in was a yard sale item from my cousin. It is perfect to display the tree on top of the end table (out of the reach of little fingers). Eden loves the tree lights and gets excited when they are turned on each night. Only a few more weeks to enjoy the Christmas decor.

Have a Very Merry Christmas

This is the family photo collage we planned to send out to everyone. Time ran out and I didn't get them printed so here it is. We wanted to wish all of our friends and family a Merry Christmas.

Happy Halloween

Eden went trick or treating with her friends at childcare yesterday. Doesn't she make the cutest bunny. Eden's First Halloween has been a lot of fun.
Today for Halloween Eden is wearing her bat shirt. I got the rinestone decale at Joanns for 1.00 and ironed it onto her onsie. Isn't she a sweetie.

Stitching



This is my Halloween stitch of Frankenstein. I found an out line picture that I liked, shrunk it down on a copy machine. Then I traced it onto the fabric and traced the lines with embroidery floss. It turned out really cute. I also really like the frame I found to go with it. I have really enjoyed Frank this Halloween.

Halloween Decor.

I just found the great blue frame at Big Lots for 4.00. It fits perfectly in my living room. I still need to find a photo for it but I could not wait to display it.
I made my creepy table runner with fabric left over from projects at school. I think it turned out so cute and the perfect thing for my coffee table.
I got the EEK frame idea from a blog called Joys of Home you can see the link on my side bar. I love to decorate for the holidays. I have been looking at a lot of home decor blogs lately and have found lots of fun ideas. I can't wait to change my decor to thanksgiving and bring out my little pilgrims.

Pumpkin Patch





We spent the weekend at grandma's house. We had so much fun spending time with my brothers and sisters and their kids. Lanelle had an Achievement day activity with her girls from church. It sounded like fun and I wanted some pictures of Eden in a pumpkin patch so we tagged along. We rode a hay wagon through the apple orchard and ended at the pumpkin patch. Eden was more interested in the dirt on the ground than the pumpkins and I got my fall pictures that I wanted.
