Dressing Up

The kids got to dress up a few times last weekend between a costume birthday party, Trunk or Treat at our church, School (CDO) and Trick or Treating at a nursing home on Halloween. We kept things simple this year - Cayson wore his firefighter costume from last year and Taryn wore a garage sale found OU Cheerleader outfit along with her Minnie Mouse outfits from vacation.

It's Fall, Ya'll!

We took our second trip out to P-Bar Farms Wednesday night for a little evening fun! Dusty drove the youth out for an event and the kids & I went out to play for a bit. It was cool.... almost cold. Perfect for us after our extremely hot summer here in Oklahoma!





Cayson jumped on the "grasshopper" this time and LOVED it! Taryn had a hard time staying on so she didn't enjoy much jump time. I love the pics of Cayson in action... I got quite a few great shots.




I really wanted a pic of my new boots.... shallow, I know but Dusty completely cropped them out of the pictures. :( They are cute and brown and the perfect already worn in beauty. 


We'll be making two more trips to P-Bar Farms in the next week.... and then one more visit in November!

Pumpkin Pickin' With Our Pumpkins

We took the kids out to P-Bar Farms to pick out our pumpkins! The kids love that place with their animals and slides! We had to drag them away with the promise of more visits this autumn (3 to be exact! We have several events out there.)



Taryn got quite the kick out of this huge rooster. She kept going over to check him out. I was worried he'd go all crazy rooster on her.


Try not to laugh at this picture.... probably the picture of the year. Out of the 4 Dusty took, this was the best one if that tells you anything. Hilarious stuff right there with Cayson.

Autumn Clusters!

Since returning home from vacation, I've dove into fall decorating and creating! I made a few autumn rosette clusters today for Sarah Found Sarah Made. I thought they turned out cute - they are even cuter on! Perfect to clip on a cardigan, scarf or purse!






I attempted a new autumn wreath too - so far, I'm loving it! The fabric bunting is just pinned on so I can change it out if I'd like. The rosettes are a cluster pin that I stuck on too. It's hanging from a strip of orange fabric that I tacked to the very top of the door for a custom & seamless look! I do love that I can change the wreath up for each holiday/season. I am contemplating adding a big fabric bow to the top... still undecided.




I hung last year's wreath on our entry mirror and added the J this year.




I've finished my mantle and just need to finish up the decor in the dining room. Next up, planting pansies, mums & kales! Pin It

Back to SCHOOL!


The kids started back to Children's Day Out (CDO) yesterday. Taryn was excited to carry her own "pack-pack" but I had to hold her hand because it was heavier than her and she could barely walk. Quite a hilarious sight.

I think they both had a blast! I asked Cayson what his favorite part of the day was and his answer, "Everything! I loved it all!"
