BOOOOO!!!! We all had so much fun creating our

first jack-o-lantern as a family. The kids were elbow deep

in pumpkin slime, but it was worth it!

Look - Pictures!!!! My dear sweet hubby was kind enough to figure out how to load the pictures from my phone to the computer...isn't he sweet! So here are some of the many hot banana peppers that came out of the garden this week. I was at somewhat of a loss as to what to do with them, due to mismarked seedlings I was "blessed" with more than enough peppers. So I chopped them up and froze them.... and I'll let my imagination take over one day while making dinner. Maybe stirfry or chill?! Any thougths?

I have decided to be creative in sharing with you all. There are ways around the lack of a camera to still share with you all what my latest plans are. I wanted to find a way to share a little bit of love with those I know, and maybe those I don't know this fall season. I came across this beautiful idea this morning and love it! Now sorry but most of you that are reading this will not recieve this little bundle, but it's not that I don't love you or didn't think of you, it's just that well...I don't think the postal service will be delicate enough with them. What am I talking about? well hold on, be patient. First you have to imagine a leaf cookie with fall cardstock. Totally confused? Well follow this link and you will understand.

Take care!

My dear faithful readers,

ha ha ha
I bet all of you have wondered where I have been. I am sure it keeps you up at night, tossing and turning. Well it's nothing to traumatic just need new batteries for my camera. We had the nice rechargeable batteries, but I think I recharged them past their life time. They should call them temporary rechargeable batteries. misleading advertising. humf.

So that's is that's why there hasn't been any new crafts posted, and new pictures of the munchkins. No pictures of my blooming cucumber plants. sigh, I know very sad.
I have been contemplating starting a second blog for my gardening adventures......but not sure if I would have enough to write about, so maybe I'll start by combining the 2 and see how that goes for a while.

love to all,
Heidi

So here are some key instructions for eating a cupcake....now pay attention because it take a lot of skill and concentration.

First place cupcake directly in front of you.

Then while holding your hands slightly out to the sides, for balance, place your face into the cupcake.

Finally sit back up and savor the sweet treat!

Hmmmmmmm - yummy!

Bethany had her 3rd birthday party on Saturday.

It was still hot outside, but a nice breeze made it seem okay.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETHANY!
