O Man and Momma get crafty!

I say this every single year...but I LOVE this time of year!!  The leaves, the food, the smells, the decorations.  All of it fills me with warm fuzzies and a sense of peace. When fall rolls around I count my blessings for another wonderful summer and another wonderful holiday season to anticipate.

My love for decorations (AND another fun fall trip down the Target dollar bins) led me to a fun afternoon craft with my little O man.

We created a little fun garland for our mantle! Looking back last year was the addition of the halloween buckets and lights to the mantle.  They made a second appearance this year...only this time they looked even cuter with a fun homemade garland to round it all out!

Owen loved helping me cut, hole punch and especially liked applying the googley eyes onto each foam shape.  I wanted a touch of him and a touch of me...and I think that's exactly what we got.

Thanks Bubba for helping Mommy create the most festive little garland!!

Happy Fall everyone :)

All finished up and put together.  Please excuse the quality...but you get the idea!  Orange and purple lights, bats, and some spider webs.  Every day mantle transformed into magical Halloween fun!!
