Touches of Fall Around the House

Happy Monday, friends!  Today I'm sharing some photos of the fall touches around my home...I rarely decorate for a season and leave it alone. :-)  Just can't do it.    So just know that because it looks this way right now, it may very well look different come Thanksgiving!

Tasty Meatloaf Recipe (and a Fall Bazaar)

Nothing says fall like comfort food and today I'm sharing a yummy meatloaf recipe... with a fun twist! A few weeks ago I was charged with making meatloaf for my church's Wednesday Night Dinner... enough to feed 25-30 people.  In my home, my peeps like a SLAB of meatloaf.  Not a wimpy slice.  So how to figure out how many loaves to make since I'm not a good judge of how far meatloaf will go? ;-) Enter my cupcake pan. What better way … [Read more...]

Six Months

It was six months ago today that we lost our sweet Kaely to a drunk driver in Miami.  This is such a hole in my children's hearts and as I watch my Jack thriving and loving his first year of high school, I can't help but think how unfair it is that she's not doing the same.   Rest in peace, sweet girl.   Hug your children, friends. … [Read more...]

Thanks to PicMonkey and Shutterfly, I've got these babies printing up right NOW!   5x7 Folded Card View the entire collection of cards.
