Are you all FAT today too?

Did everyone else have a fabulous day yesterday? Here's a small sampling of the goodies at our table yesterday. Seriously, my mom made pies, my brother brought more pies and a pumkin roll, and my cousin' J's mom who came down with her family from Idaho brought dozens of cookies, and 3 different kinds of Amish sweet bread. Talk about calories!

This is on top of the fantastic FEAST that we had before we sat down to play games!

For 27 days of Thankful #26 and #27, I can't even narrow my thankfuls down...so I'm just gonna ramble!
I'm thankful for a new game J's family brought called funnybone. You have a partner, and the card tells you 2 bones you have to "join" to hold the card between. Then you have to hold the card there like that and choose another one. So for example, J and Pixie have "hand bone to shoulder bone", "thumb bone to nose bone", etc. If you drop your cards, you're out. In the background is J's almost fiance...he's "J" too. He's really great. They met at a Halloween party. I predict a New Year's engagement and a March Wedding. I can't wait!

Here's J and my brother D at an intense game of Chess. J won.

I'm thankful for a husband who is the kind of Daddy that will read to his princess, while wearing the jewels that said princess has bestowed upon him.

I'm also thankful for Naps. Although I didn't get one yesterday, I got to sleep in today! Here's D relaxing after a tough day of feasting and playing games. Now out to mom and dad's to do it all over again!

Hope you all are enjoying the holiday weekend! Thanks Amanda for hosting 27 Days of Thankful and giving me a chance to reflect on all my many blessings, from the simple to the amazing.

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...
