Autumn Beauty

 

I realized I haven't shared these pictures with you yet. Here is our front porch with our wreath, pumpkins, mums, hay, and our lil pumpkin bear!

 Thanks to my sweet husband for making our bear. He did a great job, I think.

 Love our Cinderella and fairytale pumpkinss

Hello, Mr. Pumpkin Bear!

 

 

The other day, I received my Southern Living in the mail. I love it!

Just a few reasons why I adore this magazine.

 

 

Saturday, Russell and I went "crafting" at the annual War Eagle Mill Craft Fair. We love the atmosphere there this time of year.

There were tons of people there but it was still fun. We got there earlier in the morning so the traffic wasn't too bad.

We had a country breakfast at the mill restaurant. So good!



I had biscuits and gravy. It had been forever since I had this for breakfast. Yum.

 

I love him. The end.



Sunday afternoon, we went for a walk. It was so beautiful to see all the fall foliage.

pretty fountain...love!

I had to take a picture of the newest addition to the trail we enjoy walking on. Lil bunny rabbit.

 

Don't ya just love beauty during Autumn...or any time of the year, for that matter? Enjoy every day!

 

Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him. Psalm 62:1

Pretty Crafty!

This weekend just went by so fast! WOW! From Thursday til today NWA has had many craft fairs going on. It's a big deal every year around here! Many people come from all kinds of different places to the craft fairs! Russell and I decided to go on Saturday. We went to War Eagle Mill and browsed! Right when we got there, I ran into..... My sweet cousin, Jacque and her husband Michael! **(Can you believe that, Aunt Nancy! HA!) They live in South AR, so we didn't expect to see anyone from there! It was a great surprise. We hardly get a chance to see them either! I love family!
I had to take a picture of this! I have said before, Russell and I are from South Ar, so my hometown has the "famous Barn Sale" every September. They usually always have kettle corn! I know some of ya'll are from different states who read my blog. I thought ya'll may think this is interesting! :) It is like sweet/salty popcorn that is made in a huge kettle shown in the picture above! Neat, huh?

I had to get this yesterday too. It's a personalized cake pan. A sweet lady engraves them and does such a great job! We thought it was special and neat too!

After that, I made soup and the "Great white pumpkin cheese ball" for an appetizer. We were going to have friends over last night, but they got sick yesterday. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made this cheese ball just for Russell and I. HA! Look on my cooking blog for recipes! :)

Church was so great this morning! After that, we had lunch w/ friends. I have been helping with our church's children's choir this Fall. It has been really fun so far. I LOVE children! I help w/ the 3 and 4 year olds. We sang songs, had story time, and snacks for the kids! :) I think that the snacks were the kids favorite part! :)

Verse of the day:

I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers. Philemon 1:4

Love ya'll!
