In my spare time you will find me on http://www.pinterest.com/. My latest craft involved my hubby. He was thrilled....not.
I did have enough material to make a couple extra, painted or not, if anyone would be interested. And no, I will not be joining the craft show circuit.

Cake Overload
Abby brought in cupcakes for her school treat today (thanks Dick's Market), then after school we picked her up as a family and headed out for lunch. Eric had to leave later that afternoon for work and I had picked up a small red velvet cake (thanks Dick's Market) so we enjoyed that, along with gifts, to celebrate.
Saturday night we were invited for a wonderful dinner at my SIL and more cake with Eric's side of the family.
On Sunday after church we had a friends party, we combined Abby's birthday and my niece Audra's birthday, at Pizza Hut in Caledonia...more cake.
My parents have been in FL enjoying the sunshine and now they're home so we can plan another party....more cake ;)
The GangThe birthday girls!

Halloween
Monday morning I was able to help in Abby's class at school for her Halloween party, it was so much fun seeing all the little kids play games and make crafts.
Monday night we had a few friends over to walk around Moline for some candy. We just went down a couple streets, and the kids came home with more that enough treats. I couldn't wait for their bedtime so I could pick out the good stuff!

Pumpkins
I'm not sure why we didn't pick out pumpkins those two weeks of 'Indian Summer'?!?!?! Instead it was windy, cold and W.E.T. We go to the same place every year, nothing special but the kids love it.

Nashville
Friday we made very few stops on the way down, a quick snack/potty break at a McD's in Ft. Wayne, then a last stop in Louisville, KY for lunch at the Chick-fil-A for lunch. Once in our hotel on Music Row, we cleaned up and hit the town!! There was a bus stop (free rides) a block from our hotel, so that took us to dinner at BB Kings. After dinner, well....we had some fun!
Getting on the bus, the first time for some of us! Thanks to a local for helping us get to where we needed to go.
Jeremy and Laura...cute couple!
Enjoying all the crazy people in Nashville
Saturday we ate breakfast at the hotel, then loaded in the car and headed 25 minutes south of Nashville to the beautiful hill of Arrington. Destination Arrington Vineyards owned by the county star Kix Brooks.
Awwww
After our morning at the winery, back in the car, we headed to the town of Franklin. Destination...Puckett's. Time for lunch and then shopping in the historical district.
Jackie waiting patiently for her lunch. Every trip I make to Nashville, a stop at Puckett's is a MUST.
After lunch we headed back to downtown Nashville for some shopping before we headed out to dinner and more night life.
Laura, the only brave sole to ride the bull at Cadillac Ranch.
Sunday morning, we ate breakfast at the hotel and then hit the road for the long ride home. Only one pit/gas station stop and then stopping in Indianapolis for lunch at the wonderful P.F. Changs
I l.o.v.e. Nashville. The vibe, the people, food, weather....Its a great place to visit.
