Buckhorn 2013

I really had been wanting to make a video this summer and our Buckhorn camping trip was absolutely perfect for my first attempt. Brett (my husband) has always made videos of his life so he helped me a ton throughout every stage. Thank you Honey, and thank you to all of my friends for such an amazing weekend! I'm sorry this took so stinkin long to finish and I hope you enjoy it.


Presents For The Family

The gifts I made for the family.



Best Salad Ever!

I love this salad from City Market with tabouli, fried jalapenos, and chickpeas.


Wedding Book

We are coming up on our three year anniversary and have just now finished our photo album. It is sad how long this took us but better late than never. I cant wait to get it in the mail!


First Big Snow Of The Year

It started to snow this morning and just wont stop.




Orange Vinegar

I like to clean with vinegar a lot but my husband HATES the smell so I found a solution. On Pinterest I saw that you can soak your orange peels in vinegar for 2 weeks and then it smells much better. It worked great and I will be continuing this for the future.



Smoked Salts

Brett and I went to a hobby fair. There was a man selling smoked salts. We were definitely not leaving without buying some. They all smelled so good therefore it was hard to choose but we went with Bourbon Bacon and Truffle & Mushroom. They were even wax sealed! Love them!


Onions

I decided to chop and freeze all onions we collected. The house was stinky for a while but now I don't have to cut an onion again for a year!



 

Sweet Man

Brett brought these home for me. He thanked me for being a good wife. What a sweetie!
 
 

Cuties

Out with some family today. They found these movable hats in Bed Bath & Beyond. My hubby looks so cute!


Onion Gleaning

We have some family that owns tons of farm land. They let us glean the fields after it has been harvested. That is where we got all the corn earlier this year and now onions.

 

Apple Pie

I decided I should try some of the apple pie filling that I canned for Christmas present this year. I don't want to give away something that taste horrible. I don't like apple pie but it wasn't bad.


Camp Robber

My wonderful hubby took me out for lunch at a wonderful local restaurant. I had the eggplant sandwich and I think he had the brisket enchiladas. Very yummy!




Trunk-or-Treat 2013

At my church we have a trunk-or-treat for the kids. We decorate our trunks and pass out candy. This year I made a bean bag toss of Jonah and the Whale. I even sewed Jonah and the fish.





I just had to share another trunk made up of family and friends. They look great!


Halloween 2013

We went to a little party and I was a deer and Brett was the hunter.


Living Room Decor

I am not even close to finishing the remodel of our house so I definitely don't have any money to decorate yet. My solution was to digitally decorate the house just to curb my need to have this place finished. I am not that good in Photoshop but you can get the ideas. What do you think?


The Wedding

The big day finally arrived. Our friends got married this weekend. My bother, sister-in-law, husband, and I were all in the wedding. This is the first wedding I have been in other than my own and boy has it been a crazy month. They are a lovely couple and I have just a few of the photos to share.






Color Sunday

Here where I live there is a very very short Fall. If you want to see it's beauty you have to act quickly. I had been looking forward to it for a while, it being one of my favorite seasons. It just so happened, on Color Sunday, I pinched a nerve in my back and could hardly move. My very kind and loving husband knew that I was sad about missing it so he fixed up the car for me. Blankets, pillows, heating pad plugged in, water, he had it all. It was an uncomfortable ride but so worth it, wouldn't you say? His photos are just amazing.





Apple Canning

I have been canning like crazy! It is hard, exhausting work but I feel so accomplished after it is all done. This time around I canned applesauce, apple butter, apple juice, apple syrup, apple pie filling, I dehydrated the peels I didn't need and ground them into apple spice, and 15 more pints of salsa. I could stare at the full jars all day!


Photo Booth

Our friends had a photo booth at their wedding. We all had a blast!
