An Autumn Greeting

"Come," said the Wind to the Leaves one day.

"Come over the meadow and we will play. 

Put on your dresses of read and gold.

For summer is gone and the days grow cold."

Me
 

I'm a girl that loves the little things in life.  I love singing, beauty, art and music. I'm in rock n' roll and produce music festivals and love working from home.  I also love cooking in the kitchen with my sweet guy. We enjoy entertaining and love trying new foods. I drink way too much coffee, do way too much laundry, love exercising (but I need to get a few more miles under my belt this year), love sushi & ice cream. I also get the honor to spend time with our girls at home and do crazy fun things with them. I love playing and being outside in the Texas sunshine!

This blog

Is for fun. I love documenting our lives and enjoy sharing our stories with family and friends. It's also a place to be real and wrestle with every day life.

We started blogging when we had our Sweet Pea but we've changed blog sites a couple of times. So, now I'm starting on a clean slate. New stories, new pics, adventures & challenges of just plain every day life.

This is also a place that I hope to bring inspiration, hope and creativity. I love being inspired by others and I hope to bring a little bit of that to the table too. 

Thanks for stopping by and checking us out!

flOating LanTerNs

That's what we fell in love with after watching Tangled...floating lanterns. Completely beautiful and breathtaking!

Could I have them strung up all over my backyard? Maybe that's why at Disneyland we always run to the teacups at night because the lanterns just make it dreamy. 

So after watching Tangled for the 2nd time...I mean the 9th time I decided to take a cue from this fun gal and  create some paper lanterns with my girls.

 

Oh my..they were so giddy and what a fun craft for us to sit down and do together!!! Do you remember making these when you were little?

A few staples or swipes of glue bring it all together.

 I loved using up some old scrapbook paper that has been sitting in my bin..yay! A cute way to recycle and be useful. 

:)

Aren't they cute?

Adding their own little touch with some flowers and stickers..they loved this! 

And then when I mentioned we hang them in their room..they SCREAMED! 

 A beautiful mess..that's what I've come to call these things.

 

 A good spot for these little princesses to enjoy them. : )

Check out BEyedFox's site for the details on how to create them.

They're super easy, fun and cute!
