Festive Fun!

What do you know, another month has past with just one post. Sorry, no excuses, just a little burnt out on the blogging. With the holidays coming up I am sure things will start to pick up a little. We have been busy having a lot of fun though. Last week we went to the pumpkin patch. Ava loved the hay and was grabbing for it like crazy. I can't believe how much more fun Ava makes everything!

Her favorite part was definitely the petting zoo. She was dying! There was a camel that would stretch its neck out as far as possible and sniff at you trying to get food. Ava thought it was so funny. She is such an animal lover, which I just love.

I have also been busy making Ava's Halloween costume. She is going to be a witch this year. (Pictures to come). I also decided to make Ava a Halloween pillowcase dress, thanks for the idea Ruby! I am hooked. It was so easy to make and turned out so cute. I may have to make her one for every holiday. I already have the Christmas fabric!


I love this time of year and making the most out of every holiday. Tomorrow we will be having fun at a neighborhood get together on our street. We still need to make and decorate sugar cookies (my favorite tradition), carve pumpkins, hopefully make it to another pumpkin patch to enjoy their petting zoo, and of course, enjoy a little Trick or treating.
Gotta love holidays!
