PINECONES!

So I finally got the gumption to do something with the pile of pinecones out by the door. I picked them all last year because I was going to make a garland. I tried but found it difficult to work with the wire and it looked aweful so I gave up! So yesterday I decided to put one of the wreaths I made to use. With a little spraypaint, glitter and hotglue...













The question now is what to do with the rest!!! I barely made a dent in the pile. I mostly have Norway Spruce and Blue Spruce left. (Those are the larger ones)

It's Fall

The leaves have fallen, the days are darker, and there is a sprinkling of frost over everything in the mornings. It's definitely fall. The geese have been flying south steady for weeks now and they soon will be all gone but I saw some cranes fly over today. Today, November 1st, is the first day of deer season, we went out and Terry shot a doe mule deer. I've got two mule deer tags as well, so hopefully I'll get one next time! I didn't get any pictures so hopefully I'll get some of those next time too. I was trying to remember the other day what date Bonfire night is, I think it's Nov 3rd. I miss Bonfire night, they still do it in Newfoundland - it's an old English thing I believe. Happy Fall everyone!


I should make a comment my Christmas cards, I've been making them since September! I've got my quota made but still making more. I've got lots more ideas. I just ordered a new stamp from QKR Stampede and I've got a Stampin' Up parcel coming from my mom & sister. Exciting! I think I'll post some of my cards online eventually. Bye for now.

Okay so I found out that BonFire night is the 5th. http://www.bonfirenight.net/
