Weekend Wrapup

 I had planned on doing some chair painting and flower bed sprucing up this weekend, but it rained off and on.  Also, my stomach hurt yesterday, so I ended up laying in bed with the hubster watching movies and reading books...pretty amazing day if you ask me!  To top it off the hubster even cleaned the house and cooked!  I sure am a lucky girl!

We watched Four Brothers and Bridesmaids.  Both were pretty good, but Four Brothers was a pretty violent.  Bridesmaids was HILARIOUS, and had a cute story too!

Four Brothers

Today I'm feeling much better thankfully!  We went to church this morning, and now the hubster has some of the neighbors over for football.  His uncle works for KFC corporate, so we got free chicken and sides (hooray), I made a pepper jelly appetizer (recipe coming Thursday), bought some Chocolate Chunk Macadamia Cookies (they're really good), and called it a party - it's just for men..they don't care!  My plan today was to finally get out all of the Fall decor, but seeing as I'm in bed now while typing this, doesn't look like it's going to happen either. Hey, everyone deserves a relaxing weekend lounging around right?  Hope yours was good too! 

Must Make Mondays

I've found some awesome stuff on the blogs I read and on Pinterest.  Here are some of my favorite finds, and things I really want to make!

 Smile and Wave : DIY light message using glow sticks - this would be awesome for a night house party

 Pixie Crust : caramel frappuccino cupcakes - omg these look good and so stinkin' cute with the green straws

 Little Bit Funky: made this really cute and simple tshirt - this would be cool to give to the kiddos for a holiday/celebration

 The Idea Room : playdoh containers dressed up as halloween figures

 Plain Chicken : homemade butterfingers, made with candycorn - these look delicious and butterfingers are the hubsters fav...I'll have to try this one out - have any of you tried it already and are they as good as they look/sound/

 Joy Is At Home : tea towel cake - what a great gift this is for a bridal shower, or for a housewarming gift

Sew Many Ways : used drink mix canisters (I think Pringles cans would work too), decorated them for Christmas, and put cookies in them for friends and neighbors - could totally do this for Halloween and decorate it like the plahdoh containers, then fill with candy and goodies and go "boo" the neighbors!
