sUpeR sAturDaY!

So we here in rural Utah have a event we call a "Super Saturday".

We get together and have displays, like you see here....

Things the ladies have made threw the year.

Tie quilts to be given to the local Hillcrest High School for kids in need.

Do fun crafts....

Laugh and enjoy each others company.....

And eat wonderful food!

we had a great variety of salads,

It was a wonderful day full of women having fun, doing crafts, quilting and just enjoying each others company. Something that just doesn't happen very often anymore in the world today?

 

SoMe fUn faLL pIcTure!

We have had rain for days here-and I have loved it! So has my lawn and flowers. I have to admit when it gets this time of the year I get so sick of watering so the rain has been appreciated!

This is a new flower that I have fallen in love with! The leaves are a dark purple-green and the flowers are such a stark contrast. I have no idea what it is called? It was given to me by Kellie Staheli and i just love it.

My sedum is starting to change.

I have loved how this flower bed looks, the bright yellow of the sunflowers and marigolds have been a joy to look at.

I have planted about 5 different varieties of sunflowers this year and have been happy with each one!

Knox seems to like them too!

ReDoiNg The PlaYhouSe

It was time to give this little play house an up-do!

I stared by painting the whole thing white.

Not complete yet but we are getting close!

We threw an open house for my son and daughter in law. It was a lot of fun! We found this old bike in front of an old shed and painted it yellow.

My son in law built this picnic table and it looked so cute!

Another great idea we saw on pintrest that turned out wonderful. We are going to quilt it and they will have a beautiful keep sake.

An old stove we found in a collapsed chicken coop! A little TLC and it looks wonderful!

It was a record high so we had to have a snow cone station,everyone loved them.

Another pintrest idea, painting on a drop cloth for a table runner-awesome!

So we had to have a lemonade bar!

My favorite thing of all was the popcorn bar! Everyone loved it!

We had buttered popcorn with lots of sprinkle topping options, then we had cinnamon popcorn, caramel popcorn and candycorn.

An old bucket holds the ice and I love the pallet porch clock with the numbers all wrong!

An old screen door was perfect to hold some snap shots.

A porch swing to hold the guys!

This is were they had their reception, it was so beautiful!

And this is our darling Bri! We just love her!

We just love our little Nixin too!
