It's Fall Y'All


That's right it is fall....okay well not officially but this week the weather has been slightly cooler....(I am sure it will get hot again)the kids are all back in school, not mine but I have the reminder by all the high school kids ;parking in my neighborhood, all the stores are putting out the long sleeves. And here I am wishing that it was oct. so I can put up my Halloween decorations...I am pulling out the pumpkin and cute fall leaves tonight but I am ready to fully decorate...I LOVE the holidays! Finally I have a baby who will be little enough for all those cute holiday outfit and you better believe he will have a few for each holiday. I can't wait!! I know I am a total nerd but it is the simple things in life that bring a smile to my face....Noah starts preschool next week and I don't know who is more excited him or me!! I can't wait to go shopping this weekend....this kid grows like a weed...his shirts are getting too short, his tennis shoes don't fit with socks. And of course he needs a back pack!! I always loved back to school shopping and now I get to do it with my kids yay!!!
I Have found some great ideas for fall decorating and I am going to put them to work and then I will post pics!!
I really want to make the glitter pumpkins at the top of this post...I will be working on those in the next few weeks...thanks Martha Stewart for a fabulous idea and cheap!!

Other things to love about fall....pumpkin patches, dark earlier, no lines at disneyland...finally!! Pumpkin breads, bars, muffins...mmm I just found a fabulous recipe online...but i will share that later. Chili and taco soup. Football games for Jeff and BBQing for me. Decorating, sweaters, pants, cute shoes, fires, hot chocolate, rain. Really the list goes on but I will spare you all.


Happy Fall Y'all

I LOVE Fall too. It is by far my favorite season. The Disneyland crowds (or lack of them) could make it my favorite but I have a long list too. Yeah for Fall!

We could be two peas in a pod. I love all the some stuff you do of the season. I have been anticipating it all month. I am so ready for jeans and I even went and got some fall clothes, even though it is still hot and I can't wear any yet. I went to Disneyland yesterday and already there is no lines, it was awesome!

Oh, let me know how the glitter pumpkins turn out (and how easy they are - I'm not very crafty but they are super cute!) I saw a set of 3, not glitter but still cute at Costco today. They wanted $40 for them - no way! Hooray for Fall and Taco Soup!!
