Pinterest Anyone?

the new thing (well, not really new) that's popping up more and more is pinterest. it's a place to organize all your thoughts, interests, decorating tips, styles, craft ideas, and just about a thousand different other things you can "pin" to create a board. and the simple unique thing is...it's all about you! your interests and the things you like. how lovely is that? and everything's right there in organized "boards" for you to remember things by and their web address already attached to it. and we all know how i just adore to be organized!

if your on pinterest already, i'd love to follow you!
if not, you can get started by email invite only. so let me know and i'll send you a link for the invite.

and will be pinterest buddies forever more - xoxoxox

the start of something BOOtiful (October 1st weekend)

this weekend was good. it was oh so good. it started off with going to my hometown football game friday night for the homecoming game (we won!) and rooting for the mighty viking team and my cousin who was on the homecoming court. more on that to come.

the rest of the weekend was spent waking up saturday morning and fixing french toast for my growing handsome little man pictured above, just the way he likes it. with two slices of texas toast bread in the french dip batter, fried and sprinkled with powder sugar and the syrup hot, lightly drizzled.

next it was onto the pumpkin patch to pick the first of many pumpkins for the season at stickley farms. what you can't tell from the last two photos, is that the hill was pretty steep and he was getting quite annoyed that i was taking pictures while he pulled our load. he he. i believe buying pumpkins on october 1st is a MUST!

the rest of the weekend  was spent decorating a little for this.
and listening to this.  with my favorite talk from her.  and doing wee bit of shopping from here.
and i just might have bought this from online here.
and finally, watching this with friends to kick off the the month of all things scary!

how was your first weekend in October? my favorite month of the year!
