Thanksgiving Place Cards YOU Can Make

October 31, 2014 By Meegan 1 Comment

Happy Friday. What a beautiful time of year. The colors are changing, the leaves are falling and the air has a crisp feel.  I love it.

That leads us into the thought of Thanksgiving and  how to set a lovely table for your Thanksgiving feast.  I am always on the look for something creative and original for our table setting.  And I thought you might be too, so I have collected eight Thanksgiving Place Cards YOU Can Make.

Looking Back at September

October 29, 2014 By Meegan Leave a Comment

Looking Back at September is going to be a delight and a lot of fun for me today.  I had a wonderfully busy month not only on my blog, but with family and friends, too.  I am blessed to be able to share some of that with you here today.

While I was in Cali, I found a vintage window frame to add to my mantel/headboard.

I made a Fall Book Page wreath for our front door.

Using some wood scraps from another project, I made my own version of pumpkins.  Yes, there HAS to be a blue one. (HUGE smile!)

I was on a blog tour with 29 other bloggers.  I was able to show my Blue and White Fall decor ideas.

I hosted the FIRST ever #BestofDIY Link party with 27 bloggers total.  I am still blown away by the response and the INCREDIBLE projects that were linked up.

I have been looking for a new lamp, and didn’t like the price, so I made my own DIY Lamps Plus Inspired Gold Lamp with DIY Burlap Lampshade.

One of my favorite posts was:

I am Brave and Beautiful

In-between there are many more posts, Inspiration Monday link parties and lots of love.

Field Trip Friday Fall Harvest Festival

October 17, 2014 By Meegan Leave a Comment

Hello and Happy Friday!  I am sorry my post is up a little late today.  I had one of my less effective days yesterday.  The definition of that means: I had a seizure last night.  I am okay, but need to lay low at least for the next 24 hours or more.  It’s ALL good.  I am fine, just s-l-o-w…

BUT, I am excited to tell you about Field Trip Friday Fall Harvest Festival!

I was contacted by a local bloggers to visit the Fall Harvest Festival.  I could hardly wait to see what it was all about.

Field Trip Friday Fall Harvest Festival

The Fall Harvest Festival is at Floyd Lamb Park in Las Vegas.  

The hours are:

Weekdays: 2p.m.-5p.m.

Weekends: 10 a.m.-5p.m.

Floyd Lamb Park has beautiful scenery, complete with birds, ducks and geese beside the lake.

 You will get to select your own pumpkins right from a home grown pumpkin patch.

 There are a least half a dozen peacocks grazing the area.  (Don’t you LOVE their colors?)

 Hayrides and Horses: There are a variety of horses to get you around (Belgian & Percheron horses)

 My gorgeous view on the hayride.

During the weekdays, the hayride is ideal for the little ones.  There are a few large spiders and grave yards to spot. Then on e the weekends, it gets a little scarier with zombies wondering through your hayride path.

 Petting Zoo: You have around 20 animals to explore (donkeys, goats, llama’s and more!)

 The corn maze is really fun for everyone, as well.  There are also a large variety of pumpkins to choose from as you find your way to the end.

Over all, it is a great way to spend family time on a Fall afternoon.  For prices and contact numbers visit: https://doubletreecarriage.com/harvest-festival/  Ask for Barbara to help you.  She is SO nice and informative.  Steve will give you a great tour and show you the rescued animals in the petting zoo.

I hope you have enjoyed Field Trip Friday Fall Harvest Festival.

It was a fun trip.
