Christmas Dining Room

Pin It




I am low on motivation and time to decorate for Christmas this year!  So things are simple, but overall I am pleased with how they turned out.  Throughout the house, I like to combine bling and glitter with natural elements, like pine cones and burlap.

Fall Pictures 2012

Pin It
I finally found a few minutes to take those fall pictures of the kids that I talked about back in September.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with their families.  Let the non-stop Christmas music begin!

An Apple Pie a Day

Pin It


That's not how the saying goes? Oh well.

  We had a bag of apples still left from our visit to the apple orchard.  Today, Evie and I decided to put them to use in an apple pie.



 I can't remember where, but I once read that you should put a small layer of butter on the bottom pie crust.  It acts as a barrier from the moisture of the apples and keeps the crust flaky.  I am not sure if it works or not, but I figure a little butter is never bad?!


Yummy!  Apple pie with ice cream and caramel sauce.

Halloween 2012

Pin It
This year Evie was a flapper girl and McKinley was a Werewolf....although his mask pretty much only stayed on for these pictures!

It was a challenge to try and make Evie's long hair look like a short flapper style.
