I know I've been absent for some time! Honestly, my brain has been melting the past couple of weeks! I have so much to accomplish before Christmas... I am afraid I've already gotten lost in the Holiday hustle and bustle. So, I am taking some time out of my day... to ensure myself and you, I am not a scrooge, and give out some Christmas decor ideas!
Once upon a time, before there was Pinterest in a land far away...there was this thing called blogging. I used to spend hours (in a week, not at one time) searching various blogs for craft ideas, decorating tips and fashion sense. Now for all of you who hopped on the Pinterest train, I'm glad you did, but allow me to introduce you to my 'Pinterest' before Pinterest.... her name is, Jen Ramos, and she has a blog, 'Made By Girl'.
Lately Jen has been blogging about Christmas decoration, gift inspiration and so on. Here's a little preview:
MadebyGirl Shop. She has some GREAT pieces! I cannot wait to get one! Here is one of my personal favorites... When I have a home office, it will be hung...
Are you entertaining this Christmas? I'm excited when that day will come for me! This year I have been coveting a house, more and more each day! Although, I did a little creative decorating in my apartment this year...I'll blog about that sometime soon! The things you can do with mason jars and ribbon!! :] And just for fun... A few of my favorite Holiday decor I found on Pinterest!
Happy Christmasing to everybody! I'll be back before the end of the week to show you my home made Christmas decor! Enjoy your Monday afternoon! P.S. [In case you were concerned, My brain has not literally been melting, just a figure of speech] .
Hi Blogger world! I am still here, I am alive, I have just been so very busy this week! Taking a couple days off to go to my cousins wedding put me surprisingly behind. But, it was so worth it!
Michigan was amazing, as to be expected. Seeing my family was even better. I cannot express the joy, contentment, and happiness when I am surrounded by those I love. I really do cherish and love my family, recently it has hit me how blessed I am. My family is truly a gift from the Lord and I am so thankful he put me where I am!
Here are some pictures from some time spent in Michigan and the drive back!
Sisterrr!
Pupppppyyyyyy
Little Bro! They won their game!
Pumpkin Patch!
Our snacks for the ride up!
The drive on the way back!
Needless to say, I had a GREAT time and I love fall things! Speaking of fall things- It is FRIDAY! And I want to fill you in on what I am doing this weekend! [Drum roll please!]... I am dedicating this ENTIRE weekend to fall... [Thank you Pinterest] From start to finish. Fall activity's- Falltivites!
Tomorrow I am going to a flea market with my, (drum roll please) boyfriend! And then hiking to the top of a mountain, maybe visiting a winery, making lunch and hopefully hitting up an Apple harvest festival, I have found six that are happening this weekend! I'll have some fun stories to tell and cute pictures to show on Monday!
I hope your weekend is full of fun fall festivities! If you are running out of ideas, I will 'leaf' (get it!) a list of a few things for you to do!
And then I will get my sheep dog. And name it Max. Just like on The Little Mermaid.
Well, now I feel like a grandma who just sent a dog forward to all her children's and grandchildren emails. I guess all that's left to say is 'Be safe and make good choices!' And "If you don't have mace... bring bug spray!" (My grandma really does say that.) Happy Tuesday!
