Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

Today our nieces, Emerson & Adeline are enjoying Boo @ the Zoo and tonight they are Tinker Bell & Pea Pod!

I made this out of a black wreath and strung candy corn!

Next time, I will try to not be in the reflexion of the window...learning how to blog one post at a time!

Shepherd's Pie

I love to share recipes. Brian really enjoyed this meal. This picture is a small portion of what was left over after I filled the 9 by 9 baking pan. I did not want to throw it out, so I made a small amount extra. This recipe is good and not too difficult! Enjoy!

Painting the Hallway & Stairways

This weekend we started painting the hallways & staircases. What I mean when I say "started" is it is going to be a long process...we have a couple of high ceiling and stairways that will be hard to paint. The color is Lenox Tan. Brian & I enjoy doing are own home projects, so we thought we would show you the results so far! We will let you know when we finish the project!
