crafty friday, repurposed ikea candle lanterns

i got these fun candle lanterns at ikea last summer, but this fall i'm giving them a new purpose. i'm filling them with a few of my favorite pieces of the garland i found on clearance at michaels. or, if you have the time and a lot of heavy books...you can press the amazing falling leaves all around you and fill to your hearts desire.

10.10.11 p-patch

last weekend we packed up the kids and headed over to the central oregon pumpkin company with jen and her company. a little surgery didn't stop her from getting out with her boys to enjoy a fun day in the sun.

the handmade hat by grammy that lasted all of 5 minutes due to the amazing warm day.

brenner climbed the wall so fast i could barely get my camera out in time.

cooper enjoyed the challenge with every step.

if you know silvie, you know she doesn't give away true smiles like this to just anyone.

oh grampy, look who wants to archery hunt now?

jen and i chillin' on some hay.

cohen cowboy'd up!

giddy happy to be free...

playtime with daddy!

brenner's favorite - the pumpkin cannon.

my favorite picture of the day.

we couldn't leave without getting our annual family picture taken.

jake and his endless amounts of energy.

silvie demanding our lunch order at the terrebonne depot - so yummy and worth the wait!
