Humpty Dumpty

One of my friends at work is having a nursery rhyme theme for her daughter's first birthday. I told her I would try my hand at making Humpty Dumpty for her. I found a pattern online, and he turned out so cute!

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall..... Humpty Dumpty had a great fall....

All the king's horses and all the king's men, couldn't put Humpty together again!

But, thanks to Velcro, we can!!

Wedding Weekend in the Mountains

We had a wonderful weekend at Big Canoe celebrating our cousin Lisa's wedding. The weather could not have been prettier, and the food and fellowship were outstanding. We were at a wedding, but from the looks of my pictures, it appears that a certain number of people were more fascinated with a precious little boy, who threatened to steal the show with his expressions and overall cuteness!!

Thomas was sad that he did not get a better view of the "flower dog" running down the aisle.... But he turned that frown right upside down when he saw all of his family there waiting in line to hold him!!

Loving his Granddaddy.....

Loving his Grandmommy....

Getting smothered by the aunts..... Loving the uncles (and an aunt).....

Now on to the actual event we were there for....Lisa and Andy during their first dance Uncle Bobby doing the dip....

Beautiful fall flowers:

Lots of yummy food!

Overall, it was a spectacular night!

The next morning, we headed off for a tour of the lake. The boys tried their hands at fishing, but no bites today!

Little buddy all bundled up for the ride:

Later that afternoon, we went here:

The sisters (plus a little buddy):

Dorothy and Kort's Engagement Party

This weekend I went to an Engagement Party for my dear friend Dorothy. It was a beautiful fall afternoon, and I wanted to my outfit to match! I love this new acorn colored skirt with all of the pleats and tucks! Here's a closer shot of the skirt so you can appreciate the details, too!

So happy to be taking a little trip to the farm to celebrate with my friend!

The setting was gorgeous! A beautifully built pavilion nestled along the waterfront. The sun danced off the tips of the trees and reflected the slightly changing colors of fall on the surface of the water. Lovely!

As the sun faded in the distance, the warmth of the sun was replaced by the warmth of a roaring fire in the stone fireplace.

One of Dorothy's friends from church arranged a beautiful assortment of fall foliage for the mantle.

One of the joys of the evening was meeting Kort's parents for the first time! They are a precious couple. Dorothy is so happy to be a part of their family.

Here is the happy couple:

I am thrilled to be a bridesmaid in Dorothy's wedding, and can't wait for January to get here!
