So nice we went there twice

Pumpkinpatcho8_088 We love the punkin patch so much, we had to go back for another visit.  And I was day dreaming about more jars of the local pumpkin butter, I’d used up what I bought on the last trip to make batches of pumpkin bread.Pumpkinpatcho8_082

Sugarwings doesn’t get tired of visiting the pumpkin farm either.  She is enthralled by every detail, and we are so enthralled with her that we are happy to sit on the hay wagon and ride it round and round as long as our fairy grandbaby wants to.Pumpkinpatcho8_110

Thanks for your interest in the tiaras!  I did make more and will have some at Silver Bella. 

I should be packing for my trip, I leave for DC tomorrow morning, had Sugarwings all day, ran errands all afternoon, then wrote captions for a story coming out in the next Romantic Country tonight.

Did you see that Fifi was back from France??!! With great photos of her trip and of her patio remodel. She is also asking how readers enjoyed the last issue of Romantic Country. If you read the article Carol and I worked on together, I’d really appreciate you mentioning it to Fifi. It never hurts…. Thanks!!

I am no where near ready for a trip and will probably be doing laundry at midnight.  But I did get my early voting done today, Sugarwings went with us and got a fistful of stickers that said "I Voted". She was also telling everyone she saw at the grocery store about it afterwards.  But she says "mybomma" instead of Obama.Pumpkinpatcho8_112

While I am at our Virginia apartment, I’ll draw the winning names for October and will get the gifts in the mail when I return. you can still enter till the 1st.

Hopefully, I’ll have some down time while there and can update my blog roll too… I’ve been meaning to do that.

I also have a play date while out East!  A few blog friends and some fella bellas are going to meet me at the Chantilly Big Flea on Sunday morning.  We will be shopping in a pack that day, I can’t wait.

Well, I’m off to do laundry and find something to pack. I tend to spend all of my money on wallpaper and hats, and never have anything decent in the closet.  I hate packing.

  5. Karla it seems like yesterday that you had that photo on your blog of your husband and Sugarwings at the pumpkins patch. Time sure flies when you are having fun. Sorry, no Romantic Country (yet). Have a great time in Virginia to start with and I bet it will be getting better and better from there. I hate packing too, especially as I always save that part to the last minute. Good luck!

  6. I saw that patio makeover last night on Fifi’s blog…..it’s fabulous!
    Sugarwings is quite lucky to have family that dotes on her so much! I love the pumpkin patch and you are never too old!
    I’m looking forward to the DC Big Flea on Sunday and all the friends we’ll see!

  7. That photo of the little one is beautiful! And how cute is it that she says “mybamma!” Just shows how much kids really express themselves sometimes….hmmmm….

  8. Hi Karla! I just popped over to Fifi’s to tell her how much I loved the magazine, especially you and Carole’s article 🙂 It truly was my favorite. I think you two are magical together and make such a great team. I love your creations!!!
    I hope you have a safe and wonderful trip! Getting together to shop sounds like a dream to me!! I cant wait to see what you get 🙂
    Big Hugs,
    Amy

  10. I just want you to know that your blog cheers me up every time I read it!You make me want to run out and do something beautiful!

  11. Enjoy yourself in Virgina with hubby and blog friends. Enthralled is a good good word and I can believe it -that you unpacked some supplies to follow the muse, I didn’t hit the sheets until 4:30am on the 28th becuase I got caught up in this challenge that I’m doing and just stopped looking at the clock! Happy happies.

  12. I hope you have a great time in good old Virginia.There is a big thrift store in Falls Church. I beleive its called Unique Thrift Store. It benefits The Lupus Foundation. I bet Sugarwings will be missing you a bunch.
    Have a wonderful weekend.

  13. I went to the Pumpkin Patch twice and I did not have ANY children with me. LOL
    Hope you have a lovely and restful time on vacation. Just pack lots of comfy jeans/ tops and one outfit in black with fabulous jewelry. I tend to overpack myself. I like to have all my stuff with me.

  14. Gosh, I have had such a hard time being dependant on hubby’s laptop I haven’t gotten over here in awhile. I probably have missed you but I hope you have a wonderful trip!

  16. Hi Karla: I missed you while you were at Silver Bella. I look forward to reading your blog every morning. Glad you had a great time. I love your trees. I think I will make some for myself. I am going to try to learn how to create my own blog. I have you to thank for this wonderful new world that is open for me. Martha
