We had our first snow fall today.It was pretty to watch and thjankfully the sun came out and melted all away. I confess that I don't want winter to come just yet. As I was heading into Super Store this morning, brushing the snow off mmy clothing, a woman came out and asked "Whats with all this? It was perfectly fine when I went in!" As I said it did melt away this afternoon and was loverly and sunny.
I found some really cute blocks at superstore that say "Give Thanks". I also found a really beautiful wreath at Michael's for half price and a Thanks Giving printable so I adjusted my shelf accordingly. I will chang out for the halloween blocks after this weekend.
Happy Canadian Thanks Giving, Ta

Halloween Decor

As yesterday was the 1st of October I changed my autumn them to one with more of a Halloween feel. I went out to the Dollar Giant and the Dollarama and came home with a few more fun items for my shelf. So far this is what I have come up with.
I also have some pumpkins I did for the bathroom.
I was looking at the toilet paper pumpkins and realized I could have gotten some red scarves and done apples. So I went and got some red scarves and tried it out, but alas it is too late for September and apple time, but they will more then keep for next year.
I haven't much for a thanksgiving theme I'm afraid. I will have to work on that. I am looking forward to Thanksgining this weekend. It is definately one of my favorite holidays. Thats why I love October so much, Thanksgiving and Halloween in the same month. The added advantage of having both my parents and my husband's parents in the same town, is two dinners. This year it's going to be a little crazy as the husband's parents are holding thier's at noon on mon and my side of the family is holding it at 4:00pm on mon. Im going to be more stuffed then the turkeys. However a major upside of this is that I have not had to cook a turkey dinner ever! Now I just have to decide what i am going to do with the bits and bob of decorations left over. Ta :)
