October Highlights

By 1 Comment

Hello everyone! I am happy to be here with you today. Are you feeling the Fall weather where you live? It has actually been chilly here. I know, that is crazy for Vegas, but it has been in the low 40s in the evenings. It is time for some hot chocolate, and homemade turkey chili and even my broccoli and shrimp skillet meal. Yum!

Today I have gone through my blog posts for my October Highlights. We are already half way through Fall. Thanksgiving is a few weeks away. Winter will be here in 5 weeks! And there are only just a few weeks until Christmas.

By 4 Comments

Welcome to Inspiration Monday! The month of November is slipping right through my fingers. I can already feel the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season, can’t you?
But, through November, I am trying to keep a thankful spirit of Thanksgiving as I am decorating for Christmas.
Have you started decorating yet?
Let’s start with Inspiration Monday and see the features for this week…

Now that Halloween is over and the time has “fallen back,” it’s definitely
feels like fall!  (Here in Texas, the temperatures have finally dropped
and the leaves are beginning to change color.)  We’ve even begun some of the
Thanksgiving celebrations at school and in our various activities.
The feeling of Fall and Thanksgiving is definitely reflected in last week’s links!
This week’s features were chosen by Jamie from Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom
Love this DIY faux fireplace from AKA Design
(I must have those chairs for my bedroom!)
These Southern Candied Sweet Potatoes from Southern Krazed look amazing, they are my favorite side dish!
Please keep in mind:
