Fun Thanksgiving Printables and Games

Today I have a round-up of a few FUN Thanksgiving printables.

 

This first printable is for Thanksgiving Place cards and you can print them here.

There are 4 different ones to choose from or you can do a variety of all of them!  These are just a fold-over, so you just need to print, cut, fold in half and write names, or you could have everyone write one blessing, and have everyone guess who wrote what blessing!   So easy! Continue reading

Thursday’s Thought

As I was coming home the other day, I turned onto our street and this was the view that I saw!

It was so beautiful that I ran in and grabbed my camera and started snapping away.

 I love that I have this kind of beauty right in my front yard!

So it is with a grateful heart, that I decided on this thought for the week!

Happy Thursday everyone!  Love Ya!

Fall Pillow Wrap

Don’t  forget to vote today?

That is my little public service announcement!  :)

Now on to the post for today:

I have all of my Halloween put away and I have been a little slow on getting my fall/Thanksgiving decorations out.  I just am having a hard time getting into it.  I think that if I put it off, it will not come as fast!   It is not Thanksgiving that I really worry about it is Christmas that seems to come waaay too fast!  So let’s just be in denial and see where that gets me!  :)

I did get one thing done and put out:

Here is my fall pillow wrap.

I made a linen pillow cover for this one that can be used with other wraps throughout the year.  Now I have my black one from Halloween and a linen one.  I should be able to use these two pillows with most any wraps!

I love the fall leaves in this fabric with the orange polka dot ruffles.  Polka Dots and ruffles just go together, do they not?  And the brown ric rac  finishes it off so perfectly!

What a Week!

This has been a busy week here at the ranch.  Even though we are empty nesters it does not mean that we slow down very much!

My husband and I took a quick little trip to St. George, (Southern Utah)  the first few days of the week.  We went to two of the Tuacahn Theater Shows,   “Aladdin” and “Hairspray”.  They were both so good and the weather was pretty good although the first night we were there the wind came up and it got downright cold!  We figured if we were going to see these shows that we had better go now, because they are going to end this week!  We really enjoy going to the different shows every year!  Thriller starts next week and I would love to see that one too, but I doubt that we will make it back down there to see that one!  Maybe next year!

Halloween Muddy Buddies

The other day I had one of my best little helpers with me and we decided that we would like to make something good to eat!

My little helper was great at measuring and pouring the ingredients into the bowl.  I love to have a little helper in the kitchen, don’t you?

We decided that these Halloween Muddy Buddies would hit the spot, what do you think?  Do you want to make some too?

Meet Tilly the Witch!

Today I would like you to meet my newest friend… Tilly.   That is short for Matilda.  She is so kind and has agreed to come and stay with us for awhile!  She is not much trouble at all and even though she may look a little odd, we have tried to make her feel right at home here.

I just love making new friends…don’t you too? Continue reading

October Calendar

Here is my Oct. Calendar.  I am just loving my new board and the fact that I can decorate it every month!  I know that I am weird, but it is like my very own bulletin board.  I can see my whole month at a glance and I love that it is a CUTE glance!

I wish that my calendar were really this empty, but that is only wishful thinking!  :)

“Eye” Candy Jars

I have some exciting news to share with you today!  I am going to be showing how to make these candy jars on Good Things UtahGood Things Utah - Weekdays at 10 a.m. on ABC 4

on Monday, Oct. 8th at 10 am.  I would love for you to join me and watch the tutorial of how to put these cute little babies together!

But for all my readers, here is the tutorial for you to make an “Eye” Candy Jar like these that we made at our craft retreat. They are so easy to make and yet are so darling!  The thing that I love about these jars is that you can eat the candy after the holiday is done and then fill it up again for the next holiday!  Apparently they make “Peeps” for most every holiday!  Something that I didn’t  know because I don’t like to eat them.
