Oh hi…

oh hi! Yes. Did you even remember that I had a blog? I obviously didn’t. ha! I’ve been meaning to post for well… about 2 or maybe it’s been 3 weeks now! Here is just  a little of what I’ve been up to:

Got my hair cut LONG over due!, I’m loving it… Please tell me I don’t look like a poodle when I wear it curly Q! I know. I do.  :(

Girls Weekend Week (Our little girls weekend turned into a full on week of crafts and giggling and spending time together!) It was much needed! I LOVE my sisters & family! And since we are getting more spread out we never get to spend enough time together!

 

Here are the crafts we ended up doing. And a link to the tutorials so you can do them too!

Here is my twist on the popular fabric pumpkins!

Tutorial found HERE.

Felt flowers- Learn how to make your own HERE.

{cute colors of felt squares can be found at Michael’s Craft or JoAnne’s Fabric store}

These silk flowers! (I’m sort of LOVING all these flowers,to put in my hair, on purses, belts, & cute little cardigans and sweaters!)

Make your own silk flowers HERE.

 

My mom & Angie helped did most of this project, I saw a picture of one online somewhere, but thought we could figure it out. I LOVE how it turned out! Spooky little table runner for October! ♥

We put up Halloween decorations. Don’t  you love doing the black and orange combo?! I keep my holiday decorations so super simple. Here are a few of my favorite spots in the house.

 

Another thing that has been keeping us busy is our yard! It looks awesome and I can’t take any credit for it, other than raking up all the stinking rocks!  (thanks to my super man husband), he laid it all out & worked hard on it!) Now it is all finally paying off here is a sneak peak:

Trying to figure out what to wear for family pictures, always a chore isn’t it?! We are scheduling them with this amazing photographer!

LOVE her!!!

She did some of my kid’s Halloween pictures last year

Another highlight of my month:

The Relief Society Broadcast.

Are you curious what a Prophet of God would say to women of today?

Go HERE.

COMPLETELY INSPIRING!!!

And General Conference as well! Spiritually fed for sure.

Can you smell that? YUM! I ♥ when I have a good crock pot dinner ready to go! I’m trying out Sherelle Christensen’s Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie! For the recipe go HERE.

More tutorials will be coming! I don’t have time to finish this whole post like I wanted. Hopefully I will be back soon! I have Recipe Group with the Cookin’ Mama’s this week, and a fun Relief Society Activity too! Hint: “Chicken Soup for the Soul” with a guest speaker on “The Myth of Perfection”. Should be awesome!

Hope your week is AWESOME too!

And What the heck, let’s have a little give-away, if you want one of those cute felt flowers then let me know and I’ll send you a couple of the little cuties!
