Mr. Decorator


Fall has officially arrived here in Michigan. We went from close to 90 on Tuesday to under 60 in the same week. It was a nice break from the heat on the school front and has been just spectacular the last few days. On Saturday Brian and I spent some time winterizing the yard and doing little home projects getting ready for our our little girl. Brian worked on the baby's closet and we are happy to report he is now finished with that project. In the afternoon we went to one of the local garden nurseries to pick up some fall mums. Brian was too cute and decided on a fall theme for our side door. He said we should get two regular pumpkins and one little pie pumpkin in honor of our baby. So adoralbe He envisioned and put together the fall scene in our picture so I've been calling him Mr. Decorator. Who knew he was so multi-talented.
On Sunday we capped off our weekend with a big celebratory Octoberfest. Brian's church, St. Peter is celebrating its 125 year anniversary and the Octoberfest was the pinacle of the year long commemoration. There was plenty of German food, German beer, and dancing to be had. My favorite part was the homemade bavarian creme puffs! It was a great night and a great fall weekend.

Beth and Brian-your entrance looks really nice and what an adorable idea to have a pumpkin for your little pumpkin! She will love it when you tell years hence that she was honored with a pumpkin even before she was born! Great decorating job-is HGTV far behind? Love, Wa and Linda
