This week there were a couple of really nice days and Charlotte and I decided to go out and pick up the acorns that had fallen from our tree. We had a ton of fun. I had gotten the idea to make them into a wreath from a Martha Stewart Living magazine, so while the acorns dried in the oven, off we went to Michael's to get the wreath form, my first glue gun and a ribbon (all with JoAnn 50% off coupons, of course!). I also got some almonds and hazelnuts to add color, and the next few days really enjoyed putting this together. I wish I was a better bow-maker, however...
This was another project I mentioned before - cleaning up the living room area and making some sense of all the toys. I LOVE this shelving unit and the tubs that I found on clearance at Bed Bath & Beyond.
Family Picture! At Safety Town's annual trick or treat fest. This year we wised up and get there very early, so we could get good parking, and in and out in a reasonable amount of time and avoid the crowd. Charlotte the Kitty was nervous at first but warmed up to it...
... due to her dad's enthusiasm for candy (notice he is already snacking on the booty!)
But of course her favorite part was the go-carts.

Love the wreath. It is so great. I want to make one but I don't have any nut trees. darn. That was super cute. Making sense of toys is a constant challenge for me...
The shelves for the toys look great. The tubs look like they were made for it.
Charlotte looks so cute in her costume. Where's H's costume?
Cute wreath - way to go Martha Stewart!
Love the wreath! I'm impressed! What a cute little family you have...how are you feeling Mrs. Prego?
Very cute. I LOVE that wreath. It looks totally professional and you make me want one too.
Hmmm, that wreath looks awesome. Maybe we'll need to make one. Fabulous! Your family looks fabulous!
I love the wreath. From the picture it looks huge. What size wreath did you get...
