It's here, IT'S HERE!!!

Bust out the pumpkins, blackbirds, browns and oranges, mums, hotdogs and smores....YEA!

A shot of the jelly cabinet in the dining room.


Boo to you!
The teeny pumpkins might just be one of my fav fall decs~ Nice and simple!



And look...this nifty fun little goody box was waiting for us when we got home from picking Bryce up at school today! What an awesome surprise and a GREAT kick off to fall! It was from our little pumpkin elves~ aka Caroline's Godmother, Marcy, and two of her sweet kiddos and Bryce's buddies, Tierney and Blake. Thanks guys! We love it ALL!

And, as if this wasn't enough...Miss Priss and I went to Marcy's house for a visit yesterday morning and were SPOILED ROTTEN with: quiche, fruit salad and dip, ooey gooey bread, cookies, and Caroline's favorite thing of all??? CANDY CORN! She was a hoot at Marcy's house. She LOVED Sally the dog and Sally LOVED Caroline. Those two were something else to watch. After getting her fix of Sally lovin' Miss Priss decided she needed to check out Marcy's kitchen cabinets.

She was having a grand ole time opening and closing them but was being very good and not taking anything out. That is, until she saw the bag of CANDY CORN! Then she let us know that that was what she wanted, needed, craved! Oh boy. This is because Bryce decided he needed to share some candy corn with her the other day, and the rest is history. So you can imagine how excited Caroline was when we checked out what was in the Halloween goody box today....CANDY CORN was one of the pressies! Marcy~ you guys ROCK!!! We luv ya!!! XO

Beautiful decorations! My boys have a love for candy corn too. Who could blame these kids?! Matthew talked his Grammy into buying some the other day while at the store. I refused to buy my own bag as I knew it would be a matter of 2 days before it would all be gone. Haha!
