Did you have any trick or treaters?  We left candy out on a table and stayed nice, warm and germ free inside the house.  I think we had six trick or treaters in all.

Today we took down all of the Halloween decorations and put out the decor for Thanksgiving.


We are still on the hunt for the perfect Christmas tree and ran across this festive creation at Village Green Nursery in Rockford.  It was breathtaking!


Tis the season!  It is fun to watch our view continually change in our backyard.

Hope you had a lovely weekend with the extra hour of sleep!  Warmer weather is on the horizon this week, which makes me very happy!

#996 – Happy Halloween – Sat., 10/31/2020

I’m going to make today’s post all about this cool embossing folder!
#153578 – Cobwebs 3D embossing folder – $9.00 (p. 53 – Holiday catalog)

Embossing folders are reasonably priced and they are a great way to add a little extra texture and fun to any project!

Beautiful weather out there today!  It is a little windy, but it is nice to see the sunshine!


This is my kind of candy corn!  Love enjoying the day with festive leggings!


I graduated from physical therapy for my shoulder this week.  This is my graduation present!
So I have now traded out my PT for pilates.  I need to keep this momentum going!  A little self-care is a good thing right now.  What do you do for self-care?  Stampin’ is great self-care that benefits you and also can brighten someone else’s day!


Today is also the last day of the DSP sale!  I LOVE DSP!!!  So many pretty colors and options!

I really liked the idea of putting names into a drawing.  So we will try this for awhile.

Smiles for the day.  Paul and I were shopping for a Christmas tree last weekend and we ran across these two characters.  We have not found “THE TREE” yet, but fun was had!
