Trick or Treat

Halloween was pretty low key for us this year. Joel had a virus and was at home in bed so it was just Emma and I. We made a few very important stops and then called it a night.

A little ArTiSt!!

I thought it would be FUN to let Emma decorate a pumpkin for Halloween. What was I thinking!?!? I don't like messes. I covered the kitchen floor and table with trash bags. OCD Mama made it through and Emma LOVED it!!







This is the side that I HELPED create.......


and this is the side my little ARTIST created!

Scarecrow Trails




Today we visited the Scarecrow Trails at the Arboretum in Jacksonville. This is a fundraiser put on by the area Master Gardeners to benefit H.O.P.E. A few of our friends walked the trail with us! Here are just a few of our favorite scarecrows.
