Presidential Pumpkins.

As everyone should know by now the presidential election is November 4th, only four measly days after Halloween. So if you’re feeling extra passionate about your candidate why not carve their likeness into your jack-o-lantern this year? Download templates for Obama, Biden, McCain and Palin right here.

Happy Weekend.

Woohoo for the weekend! Autumn weather finally showed up here in Oklahoma this week in the form of a cool front. I’ll take it! I’ve spent evenings layered up (because I refuse to turn on my heater just yet) and drinking tea. And nights cozied up in bed under layers of covers. This time of year always makes me homesick for Pennsylvania and the fantastic fall temperatures and changing leaves though.

This Weekend:
• start looking for recipes for Christmas cookies (I’m going to make a bunch to take home to PA with me!)
• purchase the last piece for my Halloween costume
• eat copious amounts of Halloween candy
• finish painting china cabinet
Mistletoe Market with my mama
• clean kitchen

Happy Weekend!

The Smiths.


I could have written this one, that’s how often I think it…

Sick Kitty.

Roxy at about 2 months old. That bracelet crown doomed me – she’s had a princess mentality ever since!

I woke up in the middle of the night to a sick Roxy girl. She’s currently at the vet being diagnosed (although I, um, think she’s just really constipated – ew!), so please send her some mental back scratches and treats. And maybe some ExLax…

Happy Weekend.

I’m thrilled for this weekend to finally be here! First, there’s the annual OU/Texas Red River Rivalry in Dallas. Sadly I won’t be attending this year, but since the football teams are ranked #1 and #5 respectively, it should be an especially awesome match-up! Second, our office is closed Monday for Columbus Day, giving me an extra-long three day weekend which I plan on savoring every moment of.

This Weekend:
• watch OU/Texas game and participate in all subsequent activities that accompany the big event (RE: beer)
• buy pumpkins
• paint China cabinet
• buy large canvas to paint + hang over couch
• bake Brown Sugar Pound Cake
• laundry + groceries!
• weed rock garden
• start thinking about Christmas gifts… EEK!

Happy Weekend!

I love that she’s pulling off the “pretty” and “scary” looks at the same time!
