Halloween Stitchery Wall Hanging..

Happy Weekend Friends!

Just thought I would pop in and share a stitchery I finished last week.  Hope everyone is enjoying the fall weather, we have finally got a break from the heat and have the windows open this morning.  (That is a big deal for us here hehe)  I am busy stitching for our upcoming show in November and finishing up a few things I wanted to make for myself. 

It has been a hard week here, my daughter lost a friend in a car accident on Wednesday.  He was only 16, it is so tough when a young life is taken.  I am doing my best to comfort her, she is doing good but any prayers for the family and her would of course be appreciated. 

Thanks everyone~Have a wonderful day!

A couple Halloween Pillows...

Hi there~
I have a couple of Halloween pillows that I have been working on to share with you.
I have had a few emotional mom days lately so I thought I would come here to cry a little. On Thursday my middle son bought his first house, which is great news, only as a mom I am already dreading looking into his empty bedroom for the first time..we are a very close family of five and do alot together so this will be hard on me not having him under the same roof.  Any empty nesters out there....any advice or anything?
Ok, so on Friday my baby (which is my daughter) got her driving permit, not a big deal with the boys but for some reason with her I broke down again...maybe being the baby? I don't know..lol
Anyway, both great news, but the mommy in me just sees how fast they grow up, and how that part of my life is over.  Thanks for listening if you are still here, I need to work through this and get on to the next part of life. :)

Have a great day~Stacy

I think your little pillows are so cute. I especially like the witch, she doesn't look too scary. I enjoy decorating for Halloween but like the friendlier versions of pumpkins and monsters and witches. Thanks for the chance to win in your giveaway.

Fall in a Bucket..

Hi Prim friends~

I took a few more shots of some Fall decor ( someone out there twisted my arm LOL, I'm not naming names but her initials are CC hehe)

Here is a bucket I painted with a friend a few years ago and we added the floral stems, it was such a fun crafting day.  When Halloween is over I simply turn the bucket around and leave it out through Thanksgiving.

Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate each of you :)

I have a yummy recipe to share today...I swear my kids don't eat the bananas I buy so they will go bad and they can tell me.."hey mom, time for banana bread, the bananas are brown".  LOL
I had enough bananas last week to make two loaves, and they looked and smelled sooo yummy!  I thought of all my wonderful blog friends, and since I didn't have enough to send you all your very own loaf, I will share the recipe for now. :)

1 cup of sugar
1 stick unsalted butter~softened
1 cup (2 medium) bananas
2 eggs

1 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)

In large bowl mix sugar, bananas, butter and eggs.  Add dry ingredients, blend until moistened. Stir in nuts.
Pour into greased loaf pan and bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes...Enjoy!
You can substitute apples for bananas, just add some cinnamon with the apples...yummm
