Things I'm Lovin'

Here are some things I'm lovin' this week. Tell me what is on your list.

I'm lovin' my new scrapbook from our trip to London that came in the mail from Aimee. She did such an awesome job and I can't wait to find time and journal in it. Thank you, dear friend, for such an amazing gift. And to add to the enjoyment it was a surprise package on a week I needed a pick me up! God is so good to provide such an awesome friend!




I'm also lovin' the cool weather. As I drove home on Friday, I had the great pleasure of watching our latest cold front move through. Mother Nature outdid herself with the cloud show. I couldn't resist taking pictures, as it was the most beautiful sight. Of course, the pictures don't do it justice!


Finally, I'm lovin' that my Christmas cacti (is that the correct plural?) are starting to bloom. Since we have moved so much in the last year, and because they are finicky about being moved, I wasn't sure what to expect. However, they are blooming! I love it and just had to show you the evidence.


Have a great week and enjoy all the things you are lovin!

What have you done?

Last week was busy for me. We went and early voted (so we are entitled to gripe if we don't like the outcome). I then spent the rest of the week getting ready for Halloween at school. I made scary eyeball cookies and bat cupcakes for the kiddos. It was time consuming but well worth the effort when the kids got so excited. So without further adieu...here are pictures.

The bat cupcakes turned out so cute and the kids loved them.

The eyeball cookies were a big hit!

These are the kiddos goofing off with silly glasses and vampire teeth! Who knew $2 could buy so much fun!

And here they are goofing off with the eyeball cookies.


Hope you had a safe and fun Halloween. We are getting ready for our patio party this weekend. We are breaking in the outdoor fireplace. It should be fun!
