Blog a la Cart

This weekend, I hung with the kids and made the house super seasonally festive, while James worked like a Trojan scrapping, painting and readying the south side of our house for the winter. More pix of the man at work to come, but this is what my time with the girls looked like.

1. Courtland loves her pumpkins with a capital L.
2. I’ve gone mini pumpkin crazy. I’m particularly obsessed with the white pumpkins.
3. The porch became even more elaborately festive. Assuming we don’t wash away, I’ll document the full spread soon.
4. Halloween decor is out!
5. My Little Pumpkin kissing pumpkins.
6. The trees are looking mighty bare and the ground mighty blanketed.
7. A new Story People print gifted from James after his conference in Portland. Very appropriate for life with our girls.
8. Lazy sisters (or I should say, lazy Mama).
9. Watching Thomas The Tank Engine’s Halloween special, of course!
10. Prepping some Boeuf Bourguignon. My favorite. Our recipe is not nearly as elaborate as Julia’s. I’ll be sure to share in a future post.
11. Wolf Mask in process. Not that Kaki will even consider wearing it. Le sigh.
12. Oh hey, Chickens.
13. And broccoli (still going strong).
14. And googley-eyed Hanna blending in with our pumpkins.
15. And the lastest addition to the farm… The Magical Mystery Tour by Melita Westerlund
16. We have James’ grandparents to thank for this wonder. I am obsessed. No one is surprised.
