New Blog

I've started a new blog to chronicle our transition from Denver to Kansas City. It will be more of a diary account of the changes we're under with far fewer pictures, if any, compared to this blog.

Check it out if you have the time!

www.denvertokc.blogspot.com

I have added a link to the side bar on this site, titled, "Denver to KC", so that you can view recent posts. You can save this new blog to your favorites like this one, or click on my profile for the link (at the bottom).

Enjoy!

Pumpkin Decorations

A very simple thing to do and it adds so much....place mini-pumpkins in your potted plants. I learned this from Martha years ago. She lines the perimeter of a pot with about 10 of them and then plants mums in the middle. I've done this before and it's really cute. Just didn't have enough pumpkins at the store when I started these.

Occasionally, the pumpkins will get soggy or rot from the watering. I replace them at that point. Mums are very inexpensive and the pumpkins typically are, too, at Walmart or Farmer's Markets.

I love the colors of fall, so I take advantage of this simple trick each year. Pictured below are the plants on our front porch.....some left over from summer....to which I added our mums.

To Caroline

We'll be there soon and you can throw all the foam balls at Jack that you want to. I bet Lainey will help.

Saturday Morning


Jack and Lainey outside this morning, sharing the cozy coupe.

Thomas The Train

One of my top 3 favorite movies....There Will Be Blood....Thomas style.

I know. I need to find new things to do with my free time.
