Arby’s NEW Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich
This post brought to you by Arby’s. All opinions are 100% mine.
I was given a gift card from Arby’s to try their new Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich, so I decided that I would make a lunch date with one of my son’s and we could try out this new sandwich! We went to an Arby’s that was close to his work and we enjoyed a fun time together, laughing and just spending time together! It was so great! Sometimes as an empty nester mom, I don’t get a lot of one on one time with my own children, so this was a treat! Thanks Arby’s. Do any of you have someone you need to connect with? Try out this new Smokehouse sandwich with someone you love!
Good Food…Good Company… Good Fun!
Halloween Fingernails
Well, I got a lot of my sewing done that I wanted to get done this last weekend! Hurray! I got the binding sewn on 2 quilts, I got all of my stitching finished up on the Christmas Quilt and I got a really good start on the Halloween Table Quilt! So I feel a lot better about my projects overload now! :)
We went to the cabin this weekend and we had snow up there, but it was a good weekend to be there and to listen to conference and to paint our fingernails!
My daughter painted her’s all orange and one green fingernail. She said that it was supposed to look like a pumpkin with a stem. My granddaughter did her’s with orange and green and black polka dots. I just went with the orange and black flowers, not too brave, but in Halloween colors!
I kind of love this picture with 3 generations of hands!
I hate to admit how old my hands look, but I am so glad that they are still able to work and do all the things that I want them to do! I love the youth of my granddaughters hands and my daughters hands and all that the future holds for them!
Do any of you do any crazy things for Halloween? I know that this is not too crazy, but it is about as far as my dressing up for Halloween goes, besides my witch hat and black wig! :) (Which my grandkids love)
Have a great Monday! Love Ya!

Family is Where Life Begins…
Today I have a fun new print in my shop! This is perfect for framing or for making into a Photo Block.
This saying makes a great accent piece for your home or it makes a great gift for someone you love! With the holidays coming up soon, you can get a good head start with this darling project!
You can look at it here, or just go to the “Shop” Category at the top of the page.
This print is formatted to an 8 x 10 size and is a JPG file, so you can have it printed as a photo!
Have a great day everyone! Love Ya!

Fishing Adventures
Oh, what do you do in the summertime, when all the world is green?
Do you fish in a stream, or lazily dream on the banks as the clouds go by?
Is that what you do? So do I!
Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 245
Last week my husband told my oldest grandson and his brother that he would pay them $5 each to be fishing guides for a couple of the other grandkids. They gladly accepted and so we were able to have a great fishing adventure and I did not even have to touch a worm or a fish! :)
Sewing Skirts-Girls Sleepover
Last week I had three of my granddaughters for a sleepover!
One of them had been asking me when I was going to teach her how to sew, so I decided that I had better get on the ball and get it done before school starts again.
We had a sewing… fingernail painting…lots of eating… tea party… fashion show… and dancing party!
To start of the evening we had dinner first, then we went right to work making these skirts:
Thursday’s Thought…Give Me Patience
I think that today’s thought is timely for all those who have kids that have not yet gone back to school! :)
Does anyone else feel this way, or is it only me?
I love my grandkids, but I can definitely tell that is is time for school to start again!
Of course, I need patience in a lot of other ways too, so this thought is perfect for all those times.
I hope that you all have a great Thursday!
Thanks for visiting today, Love Ya!

I have some new Christmas items in the shop now, if you get a minute, I would love for you to take a look. You can never start too early for Christmas, right?
Stay-cation!
We did a little “Stay-cation” with my daughter and her two children last weekend! The kids had a great time and it was a fun little getaway. We went to “This Is the Place” Park. It is located right across the street from the Hogle Zoo. If any of you are in Utah and want a fun little “pioneer experience”… This is the place! (get it!)
Personal Coloring Pages
I saw this a few days ago and thought that it was such a cute idea! You can make your own personal coloring pages! They are so fun and I love this concept, what child does not love to color… and then to be able to color a picture of them self is even better!
Father’s Day File Folder Books
If this is my dad or my husband, please do not read this post!
I made these fun file folder books for Father’s Day and so I decided that I would share them with you today. They are really pretty easy to put together, so if you still need a last minute idea for a gift, you could still make one of these!
