A bit of this....a bit of that.....

So.....I don't have a book review ready , no contest, no insightful ponderings. I'm just going to show you what I've been up to lately.

We had some cooler days last week so I spent some time on my front porch watching these little beauties:

See him there on the phone line?
As far as I can tell, I have four regular feeders (?), feedees(?), feedists (?). Anyway, there are four that come and eat. One is a bully and doesn't like it when the others are there. If he weren't so cute, I'd get mad at him.

I've also made a new hat pattern and posted the hat in my Etsy shop.
Now your little 'punkin' can look like a little pumpkin!

And, because I apparently had nothing better to do.......
I made something from these:
This is what I came up with.................

TA DA!!!!!!  My first, and probably last attempt at garden art:

And remenber when I showed you my front yard garden earlier?
Well, I told you then that the green and white ground cover would all come back, and boy did it!  Along with a bunch of other stuff, like clover and crabgrass.  So here's what it looks like today...
Note to self......do not plant trailing nasturtium next year. I thought they would just crawl around and blossom throughout, but there were/are very few blossoms and lots of long, leggy stems.  Also, I'm gonna have to transplant alot of those hostas.  And can you even see my cute little shrubs in all that foliage?  Trust me, they're there.
Now, I just have decide how I'm going to decorate that area for Christmas
since I don't have the humongous bush there.
Any ideas?

Just ask

I had some "free" time at CrossRoads last night so here are some pictures...

the outdoor decorations my husband (recovering from a BAD cold)  so selflessly helped me set up:



the GIANT burning log...yes, there really is a log there.....


it's like a big, wood chimney...really impressive to watch

My shop all decked out....


New hats....

Hats are also available at http://www.atouchofheaven.etsy.com/

CrossRoads is open every Sat. until the Sat. before Christmas.  Come and see me!  Right now
I'm running a special for November on floral arrangements including Christmas wreaths!
If you come see me and say " I read your blog", I'll add an additional 10% off the November special !

Now for a more serious topic:

Please pray for all the family and friends affected by the recent tragedy at Fort Hood. Our family is thanking God that our daughter was not on post that day.  Last year, at this time, she would have been. This year, she was nearby at a local school, shook up, but safe. Ironically, our son-in-law was 'safe' in Iraq rather than on post where he undoubtably would have been had he been home.  God ways are curious and mysterious and sometimes we don't understand why things happen as they do.  I don't believe God ever does a bad thing, I believe He allows bad things to happen.  He isn't a puppet master, pulling strings and controlling every thing.  Would we really want that?  Would we really want a God that gives us no opportunity to make our own choices? But thankfully, if we ask Him, He will help guide us to make the right choices, He will forgive us when we make the wrong ones, and He will turn our bad choices into good results, if we ask.   Just ask.

Amen

My shop at The CrossRoads Farm and Craft Market

In my last post I showed you some of my children's novelty hats that I sell on my Etsy store and at my shop at the CrossRoads Market.  I thought you might like to see what my shop looks like this year, so, here's a few pictures. Thanks to my wonderful daughter and her fancy smancy camera for such great pics.......

Some of my baby sweaters and baby ponchos:
Here's a shot of one of my door displays.  My Mom does all the painting....

Here's the other door, along with a vintage ironing board painted with a lighthouse (lighthouses are BIG around here 'cause we have the first ever gas powered lighthouse. )
This is my jewelry case,  Makes my shop look official doesn't it?
Some more of my Mom's paintings....she paints on anything.....hide your children....not really
Meet Penelope.  She stands guard over things.
......hat display....it's really a plant stand.....could you tell?.....never mind, it works !
last one......my new "thing"...handstamped leather...great frustration reliever!
Had enough?  I have more.......maybe later.

Have a great day!  "This is the day that the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it" Psalm 118:24
What a great verse.  Try saying it with the emphasis on a different word each time...gives you a different perspective......-   - Mary
