Lovin' this new blog!!!

"Pearl Street Interiors" (http://www.littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/) is such a cool and creative little site! I found Jenny through another one of my favorite blogs, Holly Mathis Interiors. I LOVE how Jenny uses everyday and inexpensive items and makes them really personal, colorful, and fun. I found these on her blog and I'm totally inspired to make one of these for Ellie or for the kitchen.

Now I need to find a fun frame to paint :)

Fall Weekend...

We had so much fun this weekend - the last weekend before Halloween! We FINALLY made our way to the Pumpkin Patch and it was the PERFECT day. This pumpkin patch was so fun and will definatley be our favorite to visit next year. For $7 you get a hay ride, a cup of feed (for the animals) and a hot dog. If we went during the week we would also get a free pumpkin.

Ellie LOVES animals, she loves to tell me the sounds they make. It was so cute seeing her see the actual animals she sees in her books.

We also went to the Ft Worth Zoo but was SO disappointed that they closed earlier than what the tickets (and their website) said!!! Ellie was disappointed too :( We went to Trinity Park instead and although it wasn't the zoo, it was still fun for her.

We are excited for Halloween this weekend!! :)

Realty Show Junkie...that's me!

I love tv - I have a looong list of favorite shows - some of which, are realty shows. One of my favorites came on last night and I'm so excited!!

It has never been a dream of mine to be a Cowboy Cheerleader but I just love this show!! The girls are gorgeous and it seems like such a cool association to work for! I have to admit, every season, I go to their website to see if they have any job openings. I have no idea what I would ever qualify for in that field but it would just be fun to be a part of.

They also have a new work-out dvd:

I'm honestly pretty tempted to buy this puppy. Who wouldn't want to look like these girls?!

I wish I could've taken a picture of Jon's face when he saw this on the DVR...I'm pretty sure I'll be watching this alone while Jon plays XBOX.

So far I don't have any favorites - next week they will start training with the veterans...I have some favorites from earlier seasons to root for :)

Great Halloween Ideas!!!

I am a sucker for anything sentimental and when I saw these CUTE ideas - I knew I would use them for my own Halloween/Thanksgiving decor. My dad and Marie are coming down for Thanksgiving with Marie's daughter, Meloday and her two awesome kiddos (Luke & Mary).

My sister and Jonas will also be coming so we will have one full casa!!!

Here is what's up on the drawing board:

Are those not TOO CUTE?!

LOVE 'EM!
