Henry_2 ** you can see a picture of the dress my mom made on my sisters blog here.

We are back from the wedding and still trying to get our lives back to normal. Henry looks like he had a good time, no? I think we have a future marching band member on our hands (as long as they allow sippy cups & fudge he’ll be fine.) My sisters over-the-top adorable and talented boyfriend/wedding photographer Dustin took this hilariously cute picture of Henry at the reception. Dustin, if things don’t work out with Megan…(I’m not kidding people, he’s REALLY CUTE!) He took the most amazing photo’s of Vanessa out on the salt flats. They were incredible. I can’t wait to see the rest.

Chris put us on ‘the list’ for the premiere of  DWTS, so we went to that on Monday night. (Did anyone else see my back?? I’m practically famous. I think they might ask me to dance next season.) Going to the show is always a hoot. We are swimming in piles of laundry and trying to get organized so that  the Halloween/Fall stuff can come out  asap! 

I did the random number generator on Monday night and ANNIE was the big winner. Send me your info and I’ll get your banner out asap!  It was so great reading all about your favorite Fall things. I kept thinking, "Oh, I like that, too! That’s brilliant!" We made this soup for dinner on Monday (the first of the season) and it was pretty delish. We didn’t have any tortilla’s or cilantro, but it still turned out really good. The cumin and coriander were a great combo. It was very simple, and we’ll definitely give it a whirl again. Oh, Ina. You are so brilliant. I don’t know what it is about Fall, that just makes me want to cook/bake. Chowders, casseroles, comfort food, hmmm I"m getting hungry.

Starting tomorrow, Holly is giving away a $25.00 gift certificate to Williams Sonoma along with a "Big Pocket Apron" pattern and fabric w/ric rac! All you have to do is hop on over and vote for your favorite desert during the blog-able feast!

Happy Wednesday!

    Love that little Henry! I’m a little sad you don’t live close anymore (not by a long shot!) ’cause I think he and Miss Gretta would have so much fun together!

    This picture of Henry is one of my most favorites EVER! What a cute kid. I’m glad Dustin gets your seal of approval, too. 🙂 Everyone can check out some of Vanessa’s bridals on Dustin’s site here.

    Cute photo of Henry! I love salt water sandals, Frankie had tons and even I have a few pairs.
    Love the wedding photos on the salt flats. Like movie star action. Do they do that ahead of time? That’s fun, more times to wear your dress!
    I’m keeping an eye on DTWS just for you!

    Holy cow, your sister sure is a beauty queen. And wow, does she look like you! (Yes, compliments all around.) Great picture of Henry. Kathryn is looking at the computer with me and was quite interested in the little fellow. Hope they’ll meet at Christmas time!

    that picture of Henry is a hoot! I love that jacket – it’s so fantastic!!
    I thought of you Monday night when DWTS came on and told my husband, “a blog I read, her hubby works there and they get to see some of the shows!” and his response: “So?” sigh He doesn’t get it, although I am still very envious of you!!

    Wow! I have to say I love your blog- I feel shy to write things on blogs (I’m kind of a secret admirer of blogs) but you really have some great stuff on Etsy & you write just great stuff. Wanted to let you know!
