Things that make me smile: Tuesday edition.

These two things make me smile. I have a thing for little plastic animals- especially deer. My Kodak Duaflex has been with me for years now. It still works- but I normally use it for through the viewfinder images. This morning is gray and rainy... so I decided a "make me smile" post was in order. What little things makes you smile?

A break...

Hi all! I will be taking a long weekend. My little ones have been sick for a whole week and I have some serious catching up to do in the domestic department. I will still be uploading Polaroids for Roid Week over on Flickr. I will return to this space on Monday. Have a great weeekend everyone!

Holiday shopping on my mind...

Ok now don't send me hate mail, but I was thinking about holiday shopping and how I like to make the packaging look special. I found these adorable gift tags from Seasonal Delights on Etsy. She has the sweetest paper goods! (Even if you're not ready to think of holiday shopping yet.)

May all your legs be striped!

Wishing you all a Happy Halloween!!

Photographer Love: Gabrielle Kai

This photograph is titled "Be Happy". When I look at it, I am happy. I love the tones- and the angle is beautiful and unexpected. Check out Gabrielle Kai's shop and seriously, you'll get happy.

A little artist love...

This print by Emily of The Black Apple is one of my favorites. I love the tones and the wistful look on the girl's face. I'm sure all of you are familiar with this work! But here are the links to her shop and blog anyway. : ) Wishing you all a happy Wednesday!

So Busy!! With apple bobbing and pumpkin painting!

It has officially been over a week since my last post! I'm so sorry my dears. Not only has my family been trading flu symptoms, I have been planning, and giving, a special Halloween party for my daughter. We bobbed for apples and painted little pumpkins. We were so lucky to have a beautiful weekend with no rain and a bit of sunshine! That meant we were able to roast hot dogs and make s'mores on the fire! I should be back to regular posting now... thanks for your patience!

Monday Flickr Love: Simply Hue

I am in love with this photo. Go have a look at Simply Hue's photostream- you'll love it! She also has a blog and an etsy shop that are sure to be added to your bookmarks.
Happy Monday to you all!

New Design!

This was the old header. What do you think of the new one?

Good Morning

My husband was giving our son some candies, and he took out the heart shaped one and gave it to me. I love that guy!

Can't help it. I love cowls.

I especially love this one by Murano and Tagua. Its called "the accidental cowl". I've actually wanted to make a cowl of my own for some time, but am terrified of knitting. Go have a look at their shop- you'll find more beauties to drool over.

Not Perfect

This image isn't perfect. It isn't bright and cheery. The subject matter isn't perfectly styled and it doesn't match. That is ok. This was my morning. Coffee mix out of a can and a huge halloween mug. and pamprin. I get migraines a lot. Sometimes pamprin helps. I hope you all have a lovely Friday, and a wonderful weekend. Make a wish for me that it doesn't rain. I really really want to take my kids to the orchard!!
