Fall Foliage

This past weekend we took a trip up to Strawberry. The foliage was breathtaking! I LOVE this time of year. Love the crunch of the leaves underfoot, the colors, the smells, pumpkins, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, soup, hoodie sweatshirts, cornstalks, the decorations, LOVE IT ALL! It's been really warm here in Utah this year--nice to see some signs that fall is actually on it's way.

Porch Pumpkins

I made these pumpkins with some leftover 4x4s that we had. I thought they would be cute on my porch and cheaper than buying real pumpkins too. Pumpkins here are $5 each this year -- a little too spendy for me when I just toss them out when I put out my Christmas stuff. Anyway, Dad made fun of me cuz they are square and pumpkins aren't square in real life but who cares! I think they're cute and tons cheaper than the real thing. Besides, I can use them again and again and again. Men!! What do they know?!

Look what I made!

I decided to make myself a new bag for church. It turned out pretty cute. What do you think? I want to make one for Thanksgiving with a turkey on it. My ambitions don't always lead to finished projects tho! By the way, this bag is made out of a tea towel! Pretty cheap project as I had less than $4.00 into it! It went together really fast as well since there was very little machine sewing cuz all the edges were pre finished. Gotta love those tea towels!
