Fall in Tennessee

Fall is in the air here in Tennessee!  I pulled out my collection of stuffed owls (yeah, I know - who on earth has a collection of stuffed owls...well, I should say they are, cute, whimsical ones of course).
My hubby valiantly got this giant white pumpkin at Kroger for me and put it in the buggy after I started squealing at the sight of the pumpkin display (any size for $5.99!).  I said I wanted a really big one naturally! A guy passed us after hubby put it in the buggy and yelled out "hey buddy, did you have to get a crane to get that thing in there"...yikes - I guess it is a good thing my hubby didn't have to go into traction...
 

Thus, he wins 47 brownie points!  I scooted it into the living room and then glued on sunflower seeds for eyes with button centers, an acorn from Big Lots (cut in half - Styrofoam center makes it easy), and pine cone ears.  Mr. Punkin is very happy currently and brightens my day!

Wedding Bliss

This summer I spent a boatload of time making decorations for my son's wedding rehearsal dinner.  I decided on a "Love Birds" theme, and well, I wish that I didn't feel the goofy need to hand-make everything - but it kept me occupied and made it all more special!  My most awesome, talented mom made both of the wedding cakes!
