Fall is the Best time of year!!

Well, it's fall and that is my favorite time of the year.

Fall means: Round Top Antique Fair, fall weddings, gardening, football, and scarecrows!

Here are some pictures of what we have been up to lately.

This is the day Owen and I went out to the antique fields in Round Top... Owen standing in front of the vintage Zapp Hall sign.

Guitar art made out of vintage materials... pretty cool. Would be neat for a boy's room.

Owen in front of our scarecrow. Heather helped me put it out that day. Our scarecrow is for Mrs. Parker's first grade and Mrs. Sommerfeld's Kindergarten classes.
To go with the Krause Super Hero theme this year, we made our scarecrow Spiderman.

Sure wish this had said MooseFeathers and not Horsefeathers...

It would have gone home with me.

You know I love all things British.

I would love to have this, but Dusty would prefer all our flags to be American.

Two precious girls with my Owen at the football game last Friday night.

Go Cubs!

A cute vintage truck (Round Top find) that I filled with fall flowers.

It was a silent auction last week at the St. Paul's CDS fundraiser.

Owen and Eric after the cubs game this past Friday.

Eric is such an awesome young man. He even signed a football and gave to Owen last week!

Hope you are having a happy fall and enjoying this awesome weather!!

Cute Baby Shower

This summer I got to throw a baby shower for a very sweet gal.
Go here to read all about it and see some pictures.

Heading to Round Top tomorrow to do some antique-ing... hopefully I will get some fun inspiration and get some pictures uploaded for you.

Fall Decor... Out and About...

I love fall! The first hint of hope of cooler weather has rolled in... still no rain but at least there is cooler temperatures!!

Fall is by far my favorite season... I love to decorate and cook and all the fun things that mean fall. And yes, of course, football!

One of my sweet and loyal customers owns the Sunday House, here in Brenham. It's a great little place to pick up some treasures... and everything in there is affordable!

A wall basket full of fun fall foliage...

Miniature hay bales and fall foliage makes a cool metal shelf look interesting on the front porch.

Inside there is a cupboard full of pumpkins, door hangings, and other fun fall items.

The start of my pile to take home! A basket... of course, not so much for me...

It will go upstairs and be the home for a few dozen stuffed animals.

Are you nesting yet? I am!

Bring on fall!

Go visit Sunday house, open Wed. thru Sunday.

I just might see you there...

Well, Hello Football Season!

Well, the school year is off and running. Everyone seems to really like thier teachers and classes.

Both big boys knew people in thier classes. Blake has the same teacher for Kindergarten that Reid did, so that was great. His best friend, and his girlfriend (loose term), are both in his class.

This is Wednesday of last week, Owen's first day of frisky frog class. Owen also has the same teacher both big boys did for frisky frogs. This is one nice thing about living in a small town... everyone knows your kids... and luckily everyone seems to like ours. :)

This is Blake at his new desk on the first day of Kindergarten. Can you believe?

He looks so old!

His best friend is sitting right behind him... I told the teacher "fine for now, but watch that... those two can really cut up!"

This is Owen's future cub's shirt, with his player's number on the back.
Future cubs is really neat because you get a varsity football player to run out on the field with, and you get to stand on the sidelines during the national anthem.
Owen sort of got requested to be a future cub... we thought we would wait one more year. But, there is the nicest/sweetest/coolest kid on the varisty team named Eric Duong, who was really excited to have a little asian future cub!

Owen in his frisky frog hat.

Reid and Blake on the first day of school.

Owen being carried onto the field by Eric, his cub.

Owen calls Eric, "my man." "Where is my man? Where is my football man?"

School is in full swing, but really for us, more importantly, football season is in full swing.
Blake played his first game against the Navasota Rattlers, and his team won

29-6!!

Go Cubs!

The Knot Fall/Winter Issue

I am not one to brag...

But, I thought some of you might be pleased to know that one of my bouquets got put in the Fall/Winter issue of The Knot Texas Magazine!

I had no idea the picture was going to be in there (it's small, don't get too excited), but one of my brides must have submitted it.

I am proud that they thought enough of it to put it thier magazine.

Go here to see more about this issue.

There is the bouquet at the bottom right hand corner... I remember that bride, she was so cute. Had a love bird theme, and loved that poppy/bright orange color. So, we used hypericum, gerber daisies, roses, spray roses, and wild looking fillers to create the garden feel she was going for.

And I finished it off with a (faux) turquoise hummingbird perched on top the bouquet.

She loved it and so did I!

I would love to have those shoes...
