Retaining Wall

Summer is winding down and its time to get a few things done before it gets cold outside...

I know this isn't something I normally share but I'm really excited about this project!

Well I got a huge surprise a couple Saturdays ago when I thought we'd be working on some projects my Husband wanted to get done... instead he got the tractor and we started digging out the section of lawn between our house and shop.

Its been a sloped mess since we moved in 6 years ago... it's to steep to walk down, hard to mow and we can only keep patches of grass alive. We've talked about changing it for a while but I thought it was on the bottom of our project list.

So, I was really surprised when he started digging out the sod... and we got another surprise when as we dug out the grass we found a lot of large flat stones.

Fall Sweatshirt DIY

The weather is changing and that makes me excited for Fall! 

I love the sights and smells of this beautiful season! 

I love sweaters that are soft, warm and cozy. And I like to make my own so I have a couple to share with you. (I made one for winter but it will be in a later post)

There are so many cute sweaters online and I've bought a couple but its fun to make them too. 

My girls and I really enjoy making our own designs... and with the stencils we can paint on whatever colors we want to mix up and get really creative. Although I kept these pretty basic.
