Turkey shirt

I just loved this shirt I found here, that I just had to copycat...what DON'T I copycat! haha

Someday I'm gonna start coming up with my own cute ideas like this.

You do the same thing as with the Halloween shirt I did, but she actually gives you a template to download to cut the fabric out with. I got these cute fabrics at Gardner's, of course, too fun!

Pretty cute huh!

But the cutest thing of all is this little girl! She's so stinkin' cute! Don't you love those boots?!?! I about died with giddiness when I saw them! ;)

I also about died with giddiness when I realized Thanksgiving is NEXT week! ahhhhhh

mmmmm.... Gobble Gobble! :)

Fall branches

Wanna hear a kinda funny story? Well, I'm gonna tell it anyways. ;)

I saw this picture below and thought it would be so cool to have some branches to do that with! So I convince my sister how cool it would be and we make a trip up the canyons together. She brought her big tree choppers (that's the technical name) and we started chopping down some sweet lookin branches that we were already envisioning where to put at our house.

I risk life and limb (ok, maybe just my flimsy sandals) to cut down some gnarly ones and we make a big pile next to our car. We really didn't cut down a whole lot, we found a lot on the ground that had already been broken off. So, along comes a forest ranger, who no doubt was told by some "tattle tell" driving by, to ask what we were up to. As he first got out of his car, I was back in the trees and immediately dropped the choppers and let them slide down out of sight, and walk towards Tammy acting like I was just enjoying the view....of course he could see the big pile of branches next to our car and said that we're not supposed to be cutting down branches. Pretending I would do no such thing I asked, "what about the branches that are already on the ground?" He replied that we could take those for firewood at our campsite but couldn't take them out of the canyon or we would get a ticket. That wasn't worth it to us so we waited for him to drive out of sight and then I slipped down the hill to grab the choppers and we were off, leaving our big batch of decorations. :)

Tammy and I were both shaking. hahah yea, we'd make horrible criminals. Here we are, how old? and were getting in trouble just like we did in our teen years, and had children in tow. We laughed and laughed.

I tell you, where is the justice. Where else am I supposed to get my branches to decorate with?! :)

So.... of course that didn't stop us. The next day we used our common sense and went up a canyon that had next to nobody there....and definitely no forest rangers. My brother came this time and we drove while he chopped down our branches of choice, stuffed them in the van and within an hour we had enough gorgeous fall branches for both Tam and I to use.

I have them inside for now but when I get down to serious business putting up all my Halloween decor, then my front porch is gonna look something like the first picture, hopefully.

Aren't they just beautiful?! It adds a nice touch and feel to our home. Now, I just hope that no forest rangers are reading my blog...shhhhh ;)

Freebie Fall Kit!

I have very much been enjoying Fall! It def. brings a smile to my face.

I didn't used to really like Thanksgiving....thought it was boring. Now that I've matured (hahaha), I've come to appreciate the holiday. It's so peaceful, relaxing and it's all about spending time with loved ones while stuffing your faces with num-a-licious food til you're blue in the face! How could anyone not love that?!

SO.........this kit is dedicated to all my loved ones- friends and family! I'm grateful for all of you. Each of you have touched or inspired me in some way; my life would not be the same without it. So, thank you for your love, kindness and friendship. I truly love and appreciate all of you! =)

Enjoy! And the usual....Free for Personal use Only...yada yada yada. =)

Fabric Pumpkins

I found a tutorial for these cute lil fabric pumpkins and decided to give it a shot. Mine are not as cute as theirs, but for my first time I'd say I did pretty dang awesome! They're actually a lot easier than I imagined it being also; went way fast. It's about time I put my sewing machine to work again!

I got my fabric also at JoAnn's in their 'red tag' home decor fabric, so that made it a pretty cheap and fun project!
