A Turquoise Pumpkin Among Other Things

 Hello there! Hope this finds you doing well. I have a few random tidbits to share with you today. I know it seems that's all I share lately, but it is what it is. :) I snapped this photo last week for Instagram. I am still loving my Webster' Pages Color Crush personal sized planner. Here's last week's spread. It's kind of random...like this post. LOL! I prefer my pages decorated this way instead of perfectly coordinated and themed. Some highlights from the week...planner night with my friends, the annual Fall Festival at school, my sister and nephew's birthday (on the same day). my son's big race, seeing the movie Woodlawn with the hubby, my sister, and nephew Nathan, applying for my passport, and booking my trip to Europe! I leave Christmas Day!

I thought I would share a few other iPhone pictures from the week as well. This cute autumn header was hand painted by our librarian at school. She also happens to be mom to one of my best friends. I love how she painted each letter. The "u" is supposed to have a craft stick attached since it is supposed to be a candy apple. She lost the stick and hasn't replaced it yet. So cute!

One of my all time favorite students and his mom gave me this gorgeous Magnolia and Vine lanyard and two extra snaps to go with it. Have you heard of this company? I love the snaps. They are so pretty! I had been wanting one for a while but have been trying to cut down on spending due to saving for my trip so this was such a sweet surprise!

The hubby and I went to see the movie Woodlawn yesterday (I highly recommend it!) and I stopped by the road to take a picture of this gorgeous hot pink flowering vine on the way over,

It's just growing wild. I'm not sure what it is but it is so pretty!

We had a few minute to kill before the movie so we ran into TJ Maxx. I went in looking for a candle and a couple silk flowers, but I left with a candle and a turquoise blue mercury glass pumpkin. I had to have it! 

Isn't it pretty?

Mama and I are trying to walk again since the weather is cooling off. Today I spotted this beautiful heart shaped leaf. We don't get a lot of brilliantly colored fall leaves so this was a treat!

Here's that pretty pink branch I showed you in a photo above. I stick it in a green bottle and sat it with my pumpkin and gourd. I can't get to my fall decor right now and might not be able to at all, so I am using a few things I have in the house along with some real pumpkins and my new blue one!

And, that's the end for today my friends. I am off to bed! I'm so sleepy. I have been super tired lately and found out last week that my anemia is back. I struggle with it off and on. I hope your Monday was a good one and the rest of the week will be as well. Oh...I almost forgot! Stay tuned for information about my 3rd annual ornament exchange. I'll have the details up in the next few days!

Until next time.....
