My new vintage
When I found out that I was hosting Thanksgiving this year, I set out to find some things for the dining room. I ended up in a little antique store where I found candlesticks, a bowl, and some napkin rings.
Anyways, today I was rearranging and I moved the candlesticks. I looked at the bottom to see if I could find out more about them. Thats when I noticed a faint imprint in the felt. Turns out, my antique candlesticks are really Pottery Barn. And., furthermore, they are STILL selling them. For $44 a piece.

Reindeer cookies
I have to bring some treats for the kids' parties at school.
I made these cookies using graham crackers, pretzels, marshmellows, chocolate, m and ms. And nilla wafers.
To hold everything together, I used marshmellow creme ( can't use peanut butter at school or I prob would have done that!).
These are so cute and can't possibly taste bad since I didn't bake anything!.. . Hope the kids love 'em!

I have been on a sofa search for the playroom. I have my eyes on two in particular, but I am having a dilemma over which sofa to choose. I really like the fact that they are both slip-covered white, so that hopefully I can just wash/bleach them and they will always look clean. I have not actually "tested" them, but I need to!
- This one is a more expensive
- looks smaller b/c of the two cushions
- Comes with throw pillows
- Can purchase slipcover in other colors!
- Has three cushions. looks roomier
- less expensive.
HELP!!!!!!

Yard sales are the bomb.com
First up is this Pottery Barn Media stand AND hutch ok, granted PB teen, but still!
I have been looking to "do" the playroom since we moved in. We didnt have enough furniture so this room has had a bad case of the "itty bittys". Meaning- all the furniture in here is very undersized/not right scale/and otherwise meant for children. Yes, I know it is a playroom, however I would like to be comfortable in there as well! Anyhoo...this is going to be a good start for what I have had in mind for this room! And it was a STEAL at $70!
This next console table here I got for $5. The below picture is after!!

Labor day weekend 2011
On Friday, we packed our bags and headed for the hills. We ended up here, in Maggie Valley, NC.
This little cabin was on a trout pond and stream
We had a little loft, and played lots of musical beds.
This pond was out our back door.
And is the site of Heath's first BIG CATCH! he also fed the ducks a LOT of bread!
MaryAnne posing in front of our cabin
We hiked a trail off of the Blue Ridge Parkway
And threw lots of rocks
We got towards the top of the Mountain
And enjoyed and incredible view
Then we headed off to Cherokee, NC and went to Santa's Land
Santas Land is a magical place for little boys and girls. My little ones enjoyed their first ever rollercoaster.
And they got to pet real life reindeer
MaryAnne sporting her teams colors on Gameday. Go Gamecocks!!
Talking a whirl in their new cars
We also got to play in the river, have picnics, and watch real Cherokee Indians do their native tribal dances. It was a pretty spectacular weekend.
Man, What a way to kick off the fall season!
Hope yall had a great Holiday too!
