Fall is here again...

I love fall in Oklahoma. Its one of my favorite times of year. Of course after winter gets here and we have no leaves on the trees... its cold, icy and snowy ... then I will be praying for spring to come. But thats one of the things I love about Oklahoma. The seasons change and we get to enjoy every single one of them. Its fall peak time here and I love just driving around and the red maple leaves blowing in the air. I love pumpkins, the cooler days, spice candles, soups, cooler nights, getting darker earlier, cozy socks and Pj's. We went to the pumpkin patch this last weekend and I was able to snap a few pictures of the kids and the fall trees and decorations around my home.

Madison's Fancy Nancy Party

Madison turned 7 and we had a Fancy Nancy party. She invited all her girlfriends over for a fancy tea party. I figured she will only be young for so long, and as fast as she is growing I better hurry up and have a girly party asap.

The invitations...



When the girls arrived they picked their color feathered boa, worked on a fancy Nancy puzzle, and the Brittni read them a Fancy Nancy book.


Then the girls went and ate at the table. I fixed ant logs, jelly rolls and heart shaped sandwiches. Also we had fruit and cupcakes.

Its been a while

Its been so long since I have have blogged anything. It seems as if life just passes by so fast these days. I have been having so much fun on facebook and catching up with old friends I have forgotten about this site. I promise I will be better at keeping updated with life

My Chloe started 5th grade this fall and Madison has started 1st grade. They are both are playing soccer and keep up busy going back and forth between games and practices. We went to Disney World for Spring break and had the best time ever. We just love that place and cant wait for our next trip. Planning a trip there is always so much fun.

This fall Madison will turn 7 and we are planning on having a Fancy Nancy Party. Any ideas on creative planning and little girls party ideas would be fantastic!!

Autumn’s Glow

There is something about autumn That brings out such earthiness

Gold leaves adorn bushes and trees Like an artist with a brilliant brush

Once the leaves dry on the trees Then the wind begins to blow.

It’s a special time of year for me Because I love autumn so.

The cold dry air it seemsPrepare the leaves to fall Mother Nature’s special time.

Yes, it’s the best of all What a dazzling way to end The year as winter nears

The way leaves let loose And drop like nature’s tears

Oh yes, I love those golden days.

Dreamy with autumn’s glow. It makes me smile because I do Love the season of autumn so!

My first blog

Hello friends! Thanks for stoping by. I'm sitting here on a friday night watching a movie. Well not really since I'm actually typing a blog. Let me say that over again. Omar is sitting here next to me watching a movie and I just can't get into it (Leatherhead, ugh!). Maybe because my laptop is on my lap. I'm just waiting for it to be over so I can slip The new Sex in The City movie in. ;) he loves it when I make him watch chick flicks.
Me and the family have been really busy lately so I thought I would catch you up. The whole house is in school (except the dogs, although they need obedience school) Both girls are in soccer which keeps us busy. We are enjoying the fall weather. Even though its been pretty warm still the colors are starting to change around here and I LOVE it! We bought some mums and pansies for the yard and tomorrow I plan on getting out there and preparing for winter. I'll add some pictures when I'm finished. Happy Fall everyone!!
