Snow in October??

This is my first post via the Wordpress iPhone app. I wanted to share some of the pictures of our neighborhood after the storm.







On a much cuter note, there is a little opossum up a tree in our back yard! More pictures later!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Autumn!

Ok, I feel proud of that post title, even though it isn't that great.

Regardless, I have noticed that leaves are changing and I can smell fall in the air when I take Zoƫ for a romp in the park.

Anyway, a few weeks ago my best friend and sister, Aubrey, came to visit and we decided to have a crafts day, which turned into decorate-my-house-for-fall day. We also snuck in some Halloween-y decor as well. :P

We picked three projects - the bats and fanged pumpkins from this tutorial, and the masks from this one. I was really excited about the bat, I looove it!

During our search for supplies at Hobby Lobby I picked up this spooky owl for 40% off.



His name is Petrie! :D

The best part about this entire adventure was that we accomplished everything we wanted to do! Even though at one point we both wanted to throw our pumpkins out the window because they were extremely hard to cut, and hollowing out a small pumpkin is not fun at all, we got it all done and the place looked great for our apple-themed dinner on Sunday.

Here is my decorated buffet table! :)
