It's amazing what a few cans of spray paint will do!

In case you didn't know, we had a severe drought here in Texas this summer. In fact, our burn ban was just lifted a few weeks ago. Anyway, pumpkins were real hard to come by this year. Now, I like some Christmas decorations but I love me some fall decorations! I adore dressing my front porch with pumpkins, mums and scarecrows. This year it got a little pricey to adorn my porch. So pricey in fact I didn't even disclose my grand total for pumpkins to my hubby(good thing too b/c he might have killed me!). See those pumpkins stacked up on my urn? There's another stack on the other side of the door just like that one.


I loved my pumpkins so much I decided to keep them on the porch for my Christmas decorations!


Two cans of white spray paint (and a touch of black) and there you go:


There's his twin:


Getting two seasons use out of those babies made me feel better about telling Clayton how much I paid for them.....and I'm still alive!

Her pjs

I'm sitting in the kitchen enjoying the sounds of my kids actually getting along upstairs and trying to will myself up there to start baths. In walks Margaret Ann. We're talking, and while I notice she's been playing dress up obviously I don't give it a second thought. Then mid conversation she exclaims, "I've got my pjs on!". Inquisitive I peek behind her fireman jacket to find her in her birthday suit, complete with no panties ha! I guess she's thinking sleeping in the nude in 20 degree weather sounds like an adventure....not! So I'm headed upstairs to bathe my kiddos. Obviously one is ready and waiting. Just made me smile so I thought I'd share.
