Happy Fall & A SWEET Post!

Happy first day of Fall! Things have been so busy since my last post. A trip to visit my husband's family in Indiana, birthdays, the start of school, a new furry family member, AND getting ready for fall! I usually start my decorating Sept.1, but I broke down a couple days earlier than that this year. Here are a few pictures of some touches of Fall around our home. Like my new set of hooters? :) I bought them from the shop I work at, Simple Country Treasures. You can click on their picture to the right and see all the wonderful fall goodies they have in! We had so much fun helping the shop get ready for Fall this year!



On Aug. 27, my daughter Samantha turned five. She had a Candy Land Birthday Party, I had so much fun with that theme! Here are a few pictures from her SWEET birthday.

The birthday girl in her "Dweam Dwess" as she calls it.



My sister Janae decorated this Candy Land cake, She did such a FABULOUS job! It was hard to cut such a pretty, cute cake!




We played all candy themed music and games. We had a peppermint spoon race, played pin the lollipop on the fairy, and pass the gummy ball game. All the kids had such a good time. It was a fun day!



Another sweet thing is our new furry family member! Meet Luke, he came home with us when we went to Indiana. Our niece found out she is allergic to Luke, and had to find him a new home. We were so happy when we were asked to take Luke. We have had a sad past couple years when it comes to dogs. My faithful shadow boy Buster passed away very unexpectantly in June 2008, and we then had to put our new puppy Gryffen down when he was 8 months old, a little over a year later. I still miss my golden boys, it was very sad losing them both. It has been so nice to have another yellow boy around again. :)


He makes a nice autumn accessory too!


He has settled in just fine, and is a major couch hog. If there is a cozy spot in the house, he will find it. He is such a good boy.

I had a question that was asked about the toile bedding in our master bedroom. Believe it or not, I bought it from JC Penneys on clearance last summer. The comforter, shams and bedskirt all came from there. Thank you, and I hope you can find what you are looking for. I know it took me a long time to finally find some bedding I liked.

That is all for today, I will be back soon with more Fall and Halloween pics. I also have some prims for sale I will be listing on my blog soon.


God Bless, Kimberlee

Kimberlee - love the decorations!! Everything looks great! Luke is adorable - I know the feeling of losing your furries - I lost my 10 year old Wolfie last week and we are still heart broken.

Kimberlee your decorations are beautiful. Definitely puts me in the mood to decorate for fall. Now if I just had the time! What a pretty princess your daughter is. Her cake is fabulous. I bet you did hate cutting it all up.
Your new fur baby is a great addition to your family. We had to put our Sheperd down exactly one week ago today. We had him for almost 13 years. Such a wonderful dog.
Have a fabulous weekend and I look forward to seeing your for sale goodies.
Hugs,
AMY
