Good Morning!  It's cold and crisp here, the weather that I adore!!  Pumpkins and apples are everywhere, and harvest is nearing the end.  The crops are fabulous this year - such a difference from last year when rain kept farmers out of the field and the corn wet.  I remember the trucks lined up for miles at the elevators waiting to dry.  Many farmers left the crops in the field and took the loss.  There is much to celebrate this year!
My honey took a day off last week, and we took our grandson to the apple orchard.  Such fun! 
I love this photo - it speaks right to my heart!  Sometimes when they're together, there's no one else in the world but the two of them.  My daughter is right when she says that my hubby is just a "big pile of goo" when it comes to this little guy!

I also have a fun Halloween card to share.  I'm so looking forward to Halloween this year, and I've been making a TON of Halloween goodies.

October Release Showcase

Ask and you shall receive!  I'm adding my work today with Papertrey Ink's October release goodies.  Soooo much fun.
I do need to apologize for the sloppy photography...I'm really struggling with these manual settings, but I'm determined that I will not going to go back to the auto settings.  Hang in there with me!

I need to get dinner on for my hubby, but I promise to be back with some details and inspiration info!

Good to See You Again!

It's been so long , and I have so many excuses - a vacation, a wedding, an illness - they never seem to end! 

Tonight I don't have time to go there, but I do have time to share a fun project using some Papertrey Ink goodies that were delivered to my very own front door today! 

This little cutie showcases PTI's Tiny Treats: Christmas set to decorate a cocoa pouch perfect for a fun gift for the upcoming holiday season.  I'll add the details in the morning, but for now I gotta run!
Sweet dreams!
