Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was wonderful this year.  We went to Justin’s family this year & had a great time.  One of my assignments was the favor.  This is what we had at each setting. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

New Vinyl Signs–FHE board, ABC board & FALL boards

My good friend Emily asked me to make her family a new FHE board. It was so fun working with her because she basically told me what she wanted, then we adjusted back and forth as we went.  So, it turned out to her liking (well, I hope so!  She’s only seen a picture of it!).  It is a chalkboard FHE board.  She’ll just write in the assigned names for the evening.  I have another boutique approaching in October, and so a made a few others for that.  Here’s a picture of one:

I saw this picture online & knew I wanted to make one for Evie.  So this is my {vinyl} take on the computer generated one: 

And of course, it’s 95 degrees outside, but fall is in the air!!!  There’s just something about school starting that makes me feel that way.  So, I had to do some Thanksgiving signs.  As I put them at the base of the tree, I thought how cute they might look actually attached to the tree!  hmmmmm. (As always, anything can be custom-made)

Mod Podge Pumpkin

It's a marshmallow world in the Winter...er, FALL!! We woke up to snow this morning. Calls for a white pumpkin to be made. I mod podged sheet music onto one of the pumpkins in our garden (after priming the pumkin with paint -- how funny is that?!?!). I love how it turned out! I think I'll offer it up as a reward for the most guesses of pumpkin seeds at the ward party on Friday!

Turkey Blocks Decor

Here's the newest idea for using blocks for all sorts of holiday decor... I have a wonderfully creative husband. I asked him to think about an idea for using blocks for Thanksgiving decor. This is what he came up with! I love it!

more pumpkin walk stuff!

Thanksgiving and Christmas wood crafts

Joy to the world a couple different ways!

I love these blocks. 2x2's layered for a little thanksgiving cheer!

Holiday Boutique

Come over to the Holiday Boutique. Today and tomorrow 9 a.m. - 7 p.m.!

Thanksgiving in Arizona

We left Salt Lake City on Wednesday at 5 a.m. and traveled all the way to Mesa, AZ. Evelyn did pretty good too! I had a box full of toys for her to play with. Most of the time those kept her entertained. I was very worried about this. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with Justin's family and Evelyn loved playing with her cousins. That night, Justin left with his brothers and dad to go hunting. They had a fun time with all the boys. While gone, the girls went shopping, we worked on crafts and ate!!! It was a lot of fun. I found a lot of fun deals for Christmas-- I am all finished!I made Evelyn's turkey shirt by tracing her hand and then ironing the fabric onto the shirt. It was so cute with little ribbon dangling down for the legs.

This morning, we went to 8a.m. church for the Kristel & John and Wayne & Emily to bless their babies. We had a yummy breakfast with the family after. It has been a fun Thanksgiving weekend!
