Ten on Tuesday

1| The family over at this blog is going through the same thing we were going through in June. My heart aches for them, and I have never met them, I just happened upon their blog through my Relay buddies. I have been praying for them so hard, but mostly that they find peace and love in an ending for them, but a new beginning for their mother.

2| Now that I have that out of the way, I've been missing my Mom like crazy. It's just a piece of me that is missing, I don't know that It will ever heal, but she visits me so often in my dreams I feel like she's still here some times.

3| This weekend was filled with love and friendship. Friday and Saturday were spent with good friends of ours eating, and hanging out. Friday with Tim, Katherine, Lasagna & Bloody Marbles and then Saturday with Ivan, Dawn, Fish & Chips and Menchies.

4| Fall is HERE.

5| I have yet to put up a single fall leaf in my home. What. Is. Wrong. With. Me?!

6| I bought two new pairs of shoes on Sunday - TWO! Woot!

7| We watched Bridesmaids on Saturday night, I was a little disappointing, it serves me right though, next time I start hearing a movie I want to see is the "FUNNIEST MOVIE EVER" I need to actually see it before I have too high of expectations for it. I also watched "Something Borrowed" - it was okay, I think I just liked the book too much, and shouldn't have seen the movie.

8| #7 being said, I think I'll just stick to watching Hocus Pocus over, and over and over again. Starting NOW (well, last night).

9| Being laid up with my knee has really made me relax a little and enjoy simple things in life. I'm starting to miss my photography, I think I'll have to pick that up again.

10| The Tully's on 1st and Virginia makes the BEST, Soy Vanilla Latte EVER. Thanks Tobin, your coffee seriously rocks.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
