Happy Halloween! Around these parts however, today is special for a different reason. I know I usually don’t go into details on my life, but I just had to come on here and say a huge Happy Birthday to my daughter Madeline. She is 8 today and I can not even believe it! As I was going through pictures last night, it both seems like she has been with us forever and like the time has flown by. She is smart, kind, thoughtful of others, loves to read, do gymnastics, and loves to craft, but above all loves spending time with her family. Happy birthday sweet girl!

I’ll be back tomorrow with a few Thanksgiving DIY’s and then it will be full blown Christmas central over here! I can’t wait! Until then, I will be spending all the time I can snuggling this girl, because the years of her wanting snuggles from me are limited so I have to enjoy them while I can!
