Fall Fun

Well, We had a little Fall Fun on Friday October 31. This is Landon's first Halloween. We let him go pick out a pumpkin at the farmers market. We took it home and Dad had the job of cutting it open for us. Then Landon had the job of getting all the seeds out of it (with a little help.) Then Dad did the cutting to make the face. After we had all that done we then got Landon ready as our little Lion for his first time out going trick-or-treating. We only go to friends and family. So the first stop was at some friends from church, Sheila and Jamie's house, they had a pumpkin bucket full of candy for him. We then went to another friends house and he got a small bag there. Then it was time to go see the family. We went to Nana's, Mimi and Granddaddy's, Mike and Karen's and Charlotte's. He had a blast. By the time we got home and got his bath he was ready for bed and out for the night.

Digging Potatoes With a Little Helper

Well the other day we dug our potatoes and had a little more help this year then before. That is to say there was more dirt and rocks in the buckets then potatoes. So I thought I would let y'all see our little man helping his Granddaddy pick up the potatoes. He had such a blast. I wish I would have took a picture of him when we came in. Let me just say he was covered form head to toe with dirt.

Our Little Helper

I can do this.

Oh I see one. Here let me get it.

Landon didn't think there was enough dirt in with Potatoes. So he added some.

He had just but a rock in with the potatoes

How am I doing?

Flowers and Pumpkins

Thought I would share some pictures that I took the other day. They are of some flowers and pumpkins that I grow this summer. I just love the colors.

This is my favorite.

Look at my pumpkins

Look at all our flowers.

I just love how Lantana looks.

This looks so much like fall.

The Market Tote

We got a pattern for this super cute, reversible Market Tote at the Asheville Quilt show. So this past Thursday Denise and I went to Greenville to some quilt shops that we love and got some fabric not just for one tote but for two totes. I got one of mine done on Saturday. I took it to church on Sunday and everyone loved it and said they would like to have one. Here are some pictures of the one that I got done. I am hoping to get the other one done sometime this week and will post it when I do.


The pattern is by Scottie Dog Quilts

The fabric for the tote.
