Weekend Recap


This was AM on Saturday morning heading to Anastasia's Cattle Show. 

The sun was just coming up when the cow had to be groomed. 

My Shae was being the ever supportive sister and just enjoying hanging out at the show. 

By this time I had already been up for four hours and the show hadn't even begun yet. 

Here she is waiting in line to go in for her first class of the day. 

There were beautiful leaves everywhere so I just had to snap a picture to share. 

Here she is after the last class. All ready to head home for a little nap. 

No nap for us we stopped at Bass Pro Shop on the way home. 

Then Sunday after church we were invited over to our friends house for the first of many Thanksgiving Dinners. We have always felt like family here so it was great.

Fall Crochet

Every fall it seems as though the cold weather brings with it a crazy passion to crochet and make all things warm and cozy. Well this year it has hit full force again and I have been using up yarn like crazy. I am a full time caregiver for my dad and sometimes I really just have to sit with him so that I'm not just walking back and forth every few min. So I keep a basket of yarn and my crochet hooks beside me on the couch and just let my fingers fly. The yarn is soft and cozy and I love the way it feels slipping through my hands. So I thought today I would share a couple of the things that I have made so far this week.
I have made six pair of these I various colors and I love how they dress us a pair of boots and make my outfits pop. 

Here is how they look with my favorite pair of boots. 

I made this infinity scarf out of Chenille yarn and I love how it turned out. It is mindless crochet after the first twist. All I do is crochet until it is as wide as I want it to be and they stop. It is worked from the center out. 
I am working on another one in gray and it will be a single crochet rib stitch. These are all of my own design and I am working on writing  up the patterns for the soon. As soon as I do I will post here.

Filming in My Home Town


For the past week there has been a film crew in my hometown filming a new Lifetime Movie. Here is a peek behind the scenes. My Aunt owns the restaurant in this building so she fed a lot of the crew. This movie stars Blair Underwood, Vanessa Williams and Cecily Tyson. I caught a glimpse of Ms. Tyson but I didn't get a good picture.

Family Adventure


This weekend we took the girls on a little adventure. We visited Jarrell Plantation just outside of Juliette Georgia. It was a fun day full of new experiences and good food. 

This is the view that we has when we first started on the trail and it was such a beautiful site. The air was crisp and the smell of sugar was in the air. On the way to the syrup kettle we stopped in one if the houses along the trail and was able to taste fresh syrup on warm biscuits cooked in a woodburning stove.  

The syruping pot was a 50 gallon pot that they were using. The pot would have to cook for at least 7 hours for the 50 gallons on Sugar Cane juice to become syrup. By the time it is finished it will only be 5 gallons of syrup. 

All along the trail there were demonstrators showing various traditional handcrafts. From spinning to quilt makers. 

This lady showed various toys that would have been played with on the plantation. 

After we left the plantation we stopped for lunch at the Whistle Stop Cafe that was made famous in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe. 

They have a signed original movie poster on display. 
They have the best fried chicken and Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes
