Re-decorated....Already

When Jord looked at the balcony he decided that we needed to move everything to the outside and I decided that we needed more leaves.  We really like how everything turned out.  I am pretty sure we have a good chance to win now.

It was hard to take this since it is so dark out but just believe me.... DARLING!

Happy Fall Y'all

It has been a while and I thought it was time to play a little catch up.  We have pretty much been up to the same old same old here.  Jord is busy with school and really loving it.  He goes to Kingman (about 2 hrs away) two days a week for his clinicals.  He has learned a lot and seen some very interesting (aka GROSS) things.  While Jord is away I usually go to my friend Rachel's house and play with her.  Her husband Steven is in the program with Jordan. Our apt complex decided to have a decorating contest to "capture the essence of fall".  I wasn't planning on doing it but once I told Rachel she was all over it.  We decorated today and this is what we came up with.  If we win we get $100 off rent for November... everyone cross your fingers!!!

Rachel was very excited to paint things for the balcony.  Here is our "Happy Fall Y'all" sign.  I think she did a great job!

We decided to make a tree out of the pillar.  I am going to be honest.. it looks WAY better in real life.  The picture just doesn't do it justice.  It turned out way cute!

Happy pumpkins peeking out!  I think Jord might help me move these to the outside of the rail so we can see them better.

Here is the ADORABLE scarecrow that Rachel just whipped up.  She is seriously AMAZINGLY talented.  I always tell her she is so creative that she makes me barf.  I am just so thankful that she helped me out on this.  I think because of her talent I may have a decent chance of winning.

I just wanted to add this on to the post.  I.. yes I... painted this sign the first week that Jordan went to Kingman.  I will admit that Rachel helped with the writing but I did the rest all by myself!  I thought it turned out pretty cute.
