I've got some random fun stuff

I've been wanting to share with

you and not had the time.

So, tonight's the night!

Ready for a grab bag of goodies?

Eric's folks live on a farm with a

dreamy, long rural driveway.

So he lets Emma sit with him

and "take the wheel" sometimes.

(I love the backdrop of almost-harvest corn!)

One of my favorite things about

my little june bug is her independence.

You can see it in her very focused face!

My best girlfriend, Jennifer, recently

finished redecorating her master bedroom

in sweet sage green, creamy off-white

and touches of purple here and there.

I with I had a photo of the wooden lattice

headboard her dad made her - you would

love the outdoor garden look it created!

Anyway, I went to visit recently and

just had to bring her something for

her new bedroom retreat.

This canvas piece fit in just right!

I was so pleased with how this 12x12" canvas

turned out that I've been busy making

some up for the shop. They'll be listed

tomorrow so be sure to check back!

Before sweet hubs left to work in Raleigh

for a bit, I asked him to take my fall

decorations down out of the attic.

I could wait NO LONGER to

autumn-fy our little home!

Here's how my mantle turned out.

It's amazing to me how bare my walls

look in photos! Any-hoo...

Picture was a $15 find several years ago.

Not quite my taste anymore, but the

cozy colors of a cabin full of books

somehow works for fall time.

The next is simply for your viewing pleasure.

Yep - double whammy.

Pig tails AND bath time.

(Emma's FIRST pig tails, in fact!)

Can you stand the cuteness?

No? Didn't think so. :)

And, in case you're wondering,

YES - it is impossible to resist

her beautiful doe eyes.
