World Around Me

I wanted to give you a glimpse of what it looked like round' my town. You always know your at home when you see pump jacks everywhere and can smell crude oil in the air... and I am uber excited that I took this pic with my camera this morning:))

An Apple a Day...

Today as I was sitting in the Dr's office (I was not eating my apple a day) to get blood drawn I saw the cutest idea for Apple Cupcakes. I decided that I was going to give my best to duplicate them...and I have to say they don't look too shabby. I am kinda impressed that they came out so good. The boys are dying to dig into them! And who knew that tootsie rolls doubled as 'stems' and 'seeds'!?! I was supposed to make the 'leaves' out of green tootsie rolls...but I was not spending $10 on a bag of candy just for 5 green tootsie rolls!

(I am thinking about making lemon, orange or grape next! Wouldn't mini cupcakes make a cute grape bushel?)

Home Inspiration

Here are some wonderful inspiration photos I got from Pottery Barn...

I love this idea for my entryway. I am wanting to paint it a neutral color and then get a small table or bench. The photo collage idea is wonderful!

I am loving the garland around the door and the lanterns with candles in them! I think I could do without the crows and and some of the pumpkins,but all in all I like the idea. Maybe with a red door?!?

I know I do not have a front porch like this... but I love it!

Love Love Love Picnik

I was playing around with my photo editing software at picnik.com and I made these! I know they are not the greatest but it's a start (: I have to say that I am very impressed with all the things you can do for...

$24.95 a year!!!

If you are just starting out and looking for some inexpensive photo editing software I would highly recommend Picnik.

Tell em' I sent ya (;

Officially a Preschooler

Jacob right before we dropped him off for his first day of preschool.

He was so excited!!!

My sweet baby boy is officially in preschool. He was so excited when his Daddy and I dropped him off. I of course, cried like a baby! It's so funny that men do not understand why us mothers cry when our sweet babies go off to school for the first time. Today is about getting my house clean and getting my boys on a school schedule!
